Schiaparelli — The Ramadan Edit: Dressing with Intention

As Ramadan begins, fashion takes on a new layer of meaning; an opportunity to dress with intention, blending elegance with quiet mindfulness. Schiaparelli’s Spring–Summer 2026 Ready-to-Wear collection embraces this philosophy, presenting a first act defined by balance, fluidity, and subtle strength.

From the outset, the collection explores restraint and refinement. Double-breasted dresses in striped crepe and camel poplin offer structured silhouettes that sculpt the body without rigidity. Gold bijoux buttons punctuate the designs with a soft glint, allowing a discreet shimmer that feels more ritual than ornament. Complementing the dresses, flowing striped satin trousers and cashmere knits provide movement and ease, a gentle counterpoint to the more structured forms.

Textured taupe viscose ensembles introduce understated details; keyhole buttons, delicate gold chains, that elevate comfort into couture. Across the pieces, a dialogue unfolds between firmness and softness, presence and serenity, suggesting that dressing can be an intentional act, one attuned to both body and mood.

Accessories underscore this philosophy of measured elegance. A large raffia Soufflé bag adds lightness and a sense of movement, while the oversized Soft Secret bag, crafted from braided calf leather and finished with subtle bijoux buttons, anchors the look in tactile luxury. These choices hint at the ritual of dressing as a personal meditation, where each element is considered, deliberate, and purposeful.

While Schiaparelli maintains its global reach, the first act of this collection emphasises the intimacy of the experience: a curated selection available at its Paris Salons on Place Vendôme and at select international points of sale, from Hong Kong to New York, London to Dubai. Each location reflects the brand’s commitment to accessibility without sacrificing the intimacy of couture, a balance mirrored in the collection itself.

In the spirit of Ramadan, Schiaparelli’s new offering reminds us that fashion can be more than adornment; it can be a reflection of inner rhythm, a measured embrace of elegance, and a quiet celebration of intentionality.
