Courrèges Fall/Winter 2026 / FW26 at Paris Fashion Week
Like a sequence shot following the daily wanderings of a Parisian woman, Nicolas Di Felice has developed a wardrobe proposal to wear from morning to night. The silhouettes evolve in a familiar yet surreal street, imagined by the artistic director and his long time collaborator – set designer Rémy Brière. At every moment, their look matches the soundscapes captured in Paris and mixed with the notes of a soundtrack co-composed with Erwan Sene. Twenty-four hours pass in the life of a Courrèges woman.
With a single gesture, the sheet wraps around her, forming a dress for the interval. The day dawns in the whiteness of satin, the body stretching with ease against the hybrid fabric. These pieces are inspired by the house’s archives from 1960 to 1980, gradually giving way to daytime coats. Their multiple snaps, trapezoidal cuts, vinyl ensembles, injected zippers, and other tailoring details are borrowed from the House’s codes.
The day progresses. Urban references adorn silhouettes, embroidered with organza subway tickets and caviar-weave denim with a tar effect. Liberated and active, they evoke the films of Chantal Akerman and celebrate the passage of time, sliding from an elevator to a taxi. Evening wear adorned with embroidered coated cloakroom tickets or glass beads reflects the brilliance of subdued lights and fragmented neon. Late at night, the Courrèges woman returns to herbed, draped in a black tubular dress with a geometric structure.
Courrèges FW26 / Fall/Winter 2026, This season introduces a new bag: the “Shadow» its multiple colors combined with a minimalist shape, Nicolas Di Felice’s signature. Jersey, synthetic leather, caviar weave: materials whose great flexibility allows the objects inside to leave a temporary imprint. The finale appears, accompanied by music that builds to a crescendo. The models reappear, wearing each their look from the collection, but this time, entirely reworked in white. This is a tribute to Courrèges’ ultimate code, which reflects the light and embodies the brand’s minimalism like an open canvas on which each season lays down its story.
“24 Hours in the Life of a Courrèges Woman” marks Nicolas Di Felice’s fifth year anniversary since his first show at the House. By sublimating everyday gestures, the Courrèges FW26 / Fall/Winter 2026 collection explores the balance between the intimacy of textiles and the intensity of reality, deeply rooted in the Courrèges philosophy.
