At Etro, continuity is never static. For Fall Winter 2026/27, Marco De Vincenzo leaned fully into the idea of return and renewal, treating Etro’s visual language as a loop rather than a line. Familiar codes resurfaced only to be reconfigured, creating a collection that felt instinctively Etro while still feeling forward thinking.
The season unfolded as an act of collecting, where distant references were pulled into conversation. Tartans collided with trompe l’oeil scarf prints, medieval bestiary motifs, magnified coats of arms, and the house’s signature paisley. Tailoring stayed lean yet softened and disrupted by feather trims, sequins that dissolved into plumes, devoré jacquards on jersey, and dense embroideries of fantastical animals. Knits were threaded with heraldic cords, pleated skirts shimmered with movement, and scarves were edged in gold fringe and tied low at the hips like ceremonial sashes.
The palette moved between organic neutrals, yellows, and blues before settling into deep, absolute black, reinforcing the sense of rhythm and contrast. Accessories grounded the eclecticism with purpose: sturdy boots, slim-heeled sandals with bold ankle buckles, suede mules created in collaboration with Birkenstock, and softly structured handbags ranging from small totes to embroidered pouches.
The show experience extended beyond the clothes with a live performance by BLUEM and an immersive installation by Numero Cromatico framing the collection without overpowering, reinforcing the idea of fashion as an evolving, sensory journey.
The title for the show felt true to its name. In Etro’s ‘Loop Forward’ everything returned, nothing repeated, and the house’s wandering spirit continues its cycle, always changing and unmistakably itself.
