For Fall/Winter 2026, Nordic lifestyle brand ARKET continues its exploration of archetypal clothing. The collections for men and women are based on a shared focus on durability and materiality, with layering being an essential means of creating wardrobes that fit harmoniously into everyday life.
It starts with the materials: wool, cashmere, leather and silk, sourced from long-standing suppliers. High-quality fabrics for outerwear – including melton wool from the Italian mill Emmettex, dense cottons and supple leather – are complemented by lighter qualities, such as flowing wool fabrics for tailoring and fine, tactile knits. The women’s collection introduces feather-light silk organza and a fine, ribbed jersey quality made of silk and wool in a new line of undergarments. A ribbed jersey made from soilless cotton – obtained through hydroponics. Agriculture to reduce water consumption and land impact – can be found in the Essentials.
Tailored jackets fall from a sharply defined shoulder into a relaxed line. Knitwear explores new proportions: cable knits become more compact for a tighter, contemporary fit, while oversized turtlenecks feature wider and higher collars that sit softly on the neck. The silhouettes evolve carefully. In the women’s collection, the combination of stand-up collar and pronounced A-line remains central, bringing structure to a minimalist expression in outerwear and lighter layers. Trousers move between wide, straight shapes and narrower, slightly flared lines – either to emphasize volume or as a balancing element.
The Fall/Winter 2026 will be available from August 2026.
