& Other Stories.

The changing season does not require a strict set of rules, and & Other Stories is leaning into personal instinct for Autumn/Winter 2026, with a collection that mixes proper autumn staples with enough colour, texture and odd little combinations to keep things interesting.

The season moves between tailoring, knitwear and softer layers, with the styling built around contrast. Graphic knitwear shares space with long fringes; classic heritage tweed tailoring meets delicate lace; and soft, brushed pink cashmere sets up a striking conversation against deep brown, glossy leather pencil skirts. This play on dimensions continues through fluid layering and feminine details that lift the structural weight of traditional pieces, ensuring that every outfit leaves room for individual interpretation.

Knitwear gets a particularly good treatment. The brand has introduced 100% cashmere cardigans and V-neck jumpers alongside wool-cotton, merino and bouclé styles, with the brushed cashmere pieces appearing in richer berry shades. A palette of rich seasonal neutrals characterises the selection, though the real highlight arrives in the form of intentional, vibrant interruptions. Bold primary red and multifaceted shades of violet – ranging from pale lilac to a deep, intense purple – re-energise the knitwear and shirting options, sitting alongside dramatic, statement tartan checks.

Tailoring takes on some interesting shapes too, with tweed volume cuts and barrel-leg pleated variations pushing beyond the standard straight-leg silhouette, while zip-pocket designs and wool-blend trousers give the more classic side of the wardrobe some competition. A cropped cotton blazer and double-breasted cotton-wool coat add further structure without making everything feel overly formal.

Leather and accessories might well be the best part of the collection, extending from a sharp Nappa pencil skirt to cowboy boots and long purple gloves. The bag selection is equally comprehensive, offering slouchy profiles, braided textures, a split-suede carryall and a low-profile mini design that channels a late-1990s baguette silhouette in soft sheepskin.

Georgia May Jagger for GIGI STUDIOS.

Georgia May Jagger knows a thing or two about a good pair of sunglasses. For Autumn/Winter 2026, the British model fronts GIGI STUDIOS’ latest campaign, ‘IN THE RAW 2.0’, photographed inside a light-filled villa just outside Barcelona. The portraits let her signature gap-toothed smile and relaxed posture dictate the atmosphere, leaning into a casual, instinctive elegance that feels iconic by itself.

The pairing goes far deeper than a standard modelling contract. As the daughter of rock legend Mick Jagger and supermodel Jerry Hall, Jagger carries an innate mix of subcultural credibility and high-fashion authority that perfectly aligns with GIGI STUDIOS’ independent, non-conformist ethos. It’s by no surprise that she’s the latest brand ambassador for the Spanish brand.

The campaign serves as the next logical chapter to GIGI STUDIOS’ previous ‘IN THE RAW’ imagery, which saw American model Erin Wasson bring a stripped-back, intentional poise to the Autumn/Winter 2025 collection. While that first iteration was an exploration of lamination techniques, this new instalment evolves the concept by focusing on naked individuality and the little imperfections that make a face memorable. 

Jagger appears without the heavily constructed beauty treatment that can so easily swallow eyewear campaigns, making a convincing case for letting the frames become part of someone’s character. “I feel my idea of beauty has shifted over time, not visually but personally,” she says. “I think now I place much more value on the beauty I find in the people I love and the moments that are part of my life.”

The collection itself plays with proportion from both ends of the scale, moving far beyond the 1970s nostalgia and oversized round frames that Wasson championed last season. Instead, this offering coordinates around a sharp graphic tension. Massive, voluminous acetate structures throw their weight into the ring alongside hyper-minimalist micro frames, tapping into the continuing appetite for narrow eyewear. GIGI STUDIOS spans across square, rectangular, cat-eye, aviator and geometric shapes, giving the seasonal narrative plenty of room to pivot between dramatically different scales.

The lineup introduces standout optical and sun models like the sculptural Varena, the geometric Lara and the sleek Savine, running alongside the architectural cuts of the Viren, Laene and Oria frames. By maintaining a classic tortoiseshell, solid black and translucent crystal colour palette, the designs ensure the structural silhouette is as impactful as possible.

Havaianas x KidSuper.

There is a very good chance your next pair of Havaianas will have something to do with soccer, even if you have absolutely no intention of touching a football. For its latest collaboration with KidSuper, the Brazilian footwear icon heads to the streets of São Paulo with Brooklyn-based creative studio KidSuper, bringing Colm Dillane’s colourful take on ‘futebol arte’ to a four-piece collection. The standout, as expected, is a pair of flip-flops that looks suspiciously like a soccer pitch.

The Havaianas x KidSuper partnership follows an earlier chapter in Brazil, this time with the two brands restoring a public football court in São Paulo using original artwork by Dillane. The same court became the backdrop for the campaign, giving the collection a nice circular journey from street, to artwork, to sandal and back to the street.

A lifelong football fan and former player, Dillane previously lived in the country and spent time at Esporte Clube Vitória in Bahia, making the collaboration feel considerably more personal. “Havaianas is such a Brazilian icon, and for me that made it a really exciting canvas to play with,” he says. “We took this shared love of football and brought it into the KidSuper world through colour, art and a little bit of the unexpected.”

That unexpected bit is the ‘Top Turf Pitch’, a design first shown during KidSuper’s Autumn/Winter 2026 presentation in Paris. The entire Havaianas silhouette is covered in green velvet, transforming the normally beach-bound sandal into something that resembles a miniature soccer field for your feet. It is an absurd idea, in the best possible way, and somehow one that makes immediate sense coming from KidSuper’s mind.

The other three designs bring Dillane’s artwork directly onto the sandals, with bright colours, expressive characters and graphics centred on movement. All four pairs feature co-branded details, while the packaging gets its own collectible treatment with a card carrying four metallic pins that can be used to personalise the sandals, plus a KidSuper gym sack.

The collaboration also represents a neat snapshot of how Dillane has been approaching KidSuper itself. Fashion sits alongside painting, music, film, theatre, and now, even soccer pitches, with sport becoming another medium for the Brooklyn studio’s colourful universe. “When you are little, you believe you can do anything and that everything is possible – you’re young and you’re free,” he says.

The Havaianas x KidSuper collection is now available online and at Havaianas and KidSuper stores. Discover more here.
