ZIMO Spring/Summer 2026 at New York Fashion Week

ZIMO Spring/Summer 2026 / SS26 at New York Fashion Week entitled sunkissed notes. ”A Note Left In The Sun. A Game Carried By The Wind.“

ZIMO SS26 / Spring/Summer 2026 revisits a sun-drenched afternoon in the 90s — when children played freely in oversized football jerseys, the air fĳilled with the scent of grass, lemon, and sun-warmed skin. Those fleeting moments of movement and imagination are reinterpreted through the brand’s signature documentary lens.

This season, knotted seams, twisted constructions, and ruched textures echo the spontaneous way kids once reworked adult clothing. Upcycled football jerseys meet vegan leather, soft TR suiting, and tactile jersey to create silhouettes that are relaxed, sporty, and gender-fluid. Custom ceramic buttons shaped like cassette tapes, paper stars, and marbles bring quiet nostalgia into every detail. These are garments touched by sunlight and memory—like notes left behind on a warm afternoon. Faded, tender, and still in motion.
