Cucculelli Shaheen Fall/Winter 2026 / FW26 at New York Fashion Week entitled ELECTRIC COSMOS for Collection Twenty-two.
New York, February 12, 2026 – Cucculelli Shaheen presented COLLECTION TWENTY-TWO: ELECTRIC COSMOS, the latest evolution of the brand’s signature blend of craftsmanship, music, and storytelling during New York Fashion Week.
Cucculelli Shaheen FW26 / Fall/Winter 2026 show took place at the Bowery Ballroom in downtown Manhattan as night fell. With live music by Nashville based band Calico Mantra, the show unfolded as a collision of Art Deco mysticism and baroque glam rock, creating a universe of incandescent myths, cosmic dancers, and nocturnal romance.
Drawing from a rich constellation of references –from mystic sunsets and smoke-filled salles fumeurs to Josiah McElheny’s Island Universe, cosmic ballrooms, and lilies of the night –the collection explores the dualities of darkness and illumination, structure and sensuality. Intricate embroideries, lily cabochons, and sculptural detailing appear throughout, while fluid silhouettes and detachable elements create a sense of movement and transformation. Calico Mantra set the tone for the night, bringing a live energy that carried through the show. The atmosphere reflected the world of Anna Rose Shaheen and Anthony Cucculelli, where music and fashion move together with intention and edge.
About the brand, Cucculelli Shaheen is a NYC based design house founded in 2016 by married duo Anna Rose Shaheen and Anthony Cucculelli. The two met working in downtown NYC in the mid-aughts, while a stint designing in Florence, Italy amplified their design partnership. They have been creating together ever since and their previous work includes illustrious brands such as Emilio Pucci, Oscar de la Renta, Burberry, Calvin Klein, Yigal Azrouel, and Roberto Cavalli. Cucculelli Shaheen is defined by its lush details, downtown silhouette, and subversive edge. Inspiration is drawn from classical art, music, mythology, and NYC.
