For your spring/summer 2026 collection, Tessa Koops is inspired by the world of the HBO series ‘The White Lotus’, which is known for your sensually charged holiday scenarios and luxurious backdrops. This is a rather unusual source of inspiration, but that’s precisely because of that. “For me, this ultimate vacation feeling is essential for a summer collection,” says Koops. “My customer and I – we love trips, sun and city holidays. This collection simply takes you away as if you had already ended up in a tropical place.” In a world that often feels moody and dark, Koops deliberately contrast: a collection that brings ease. Clothing that invites you to celebrate, feel, travel and enjoy life.
Southern European inspiration and Mexican power prints
The collection is a visual journey through the Mediterranean and beyond: From the blue tones of the Greek islands to the warm sand and earth tones of Marrakech, a wide range of colors and patterns is offered. Vanillet tones, fresco-like designs and ceramic prints take to Italy, while graphic forms are reminiscent of Mexico. As you know it from Tessa Koops, the prints are powerful, expressive and present. The thread is the inspiration of art, craft and this vibrating vacation feeling.
Flowing silhouettes for a free spirit
The shapes remain soft and swinging. “Minimalism is not our thing. It can flutter, it can be generous – we celebrate life,” says Koops. The silhouettes are feminine and expressive: long dresses that move in the wind, skirts with volume, tops with loving details such as embroidery on the shoulder.
New in the FS26 collection is a knitting skirt with a suitable top-comfortable, elegant and travel-friendly. Viskose-Crêpe ensures an airy sense of wear, ideal for hot days, whether in southern Europe or in the increasingly warmer Germany. The overall picture is rounded off by the addition with plain styles and fine knit parts. This enables buyers to put together versatile items. The plain colors fit perfectly with the prints, both with tops as well as with pants and skirts. The color palette with bougainvillea-purple, Italy-yellow and terracotta-red, which is reminiscent of Marrakech, underlines the summer flair and gives the Mediterranean collection.
The Tessa-Coops woman not only has style, but also attitude. She loves fashion, but on her own conditions. It consciously opted for quality, sustainability and pieces with meaningfulness. Not to attract attention, but to show yourself – self -confident, lively, well -groomed and with sense of details.
Consistent wholesale offer with emotional added value
Also for trading partners: The FS26 collection is a safe choice inside. Several models offer an attractive margin of 3.0-including simple basics, high-quality knitted parts and the popular silk-viscose prints. The collection not only convinces visually, but also economically. “We would like to give our partner: inside the confidence in renewing your range without feeling like a risk,” explains Koops.
A brand in motion
Even if the FS26 collection stands for itself, the Tessa Koops brand remains in motion. The designer remains true to her distinctive style: expressive prints, feminine lines and an artistic flair are the focus. At the same time, it leaves space for surprises: new silhouettes, special details and accessories that round off the overall picture. It is precisely these little breaks with the expectable make you exciting and familiar every season.
In addition to the clothing line, KOOPS is increasing in the expansion of her accessories range, with unique bags, towels, belts and statement earrings. This not only strengthens the brand’s visual profile, but also the narrative that retailers can pass on the inside of the point of sale inside. The label is also strategically reorganizing internationally: with growth ambitions in Spain, Germany and Greece as well as increasing interest from the US market, the view is clearly directed into the future.
The FS26 collection is therefore not only a tribute to the summer, but also another step in a journey of brand that is constantly evolving.
