DI PETSA Spring/Summer 2027 / SS27 at London Fashion Week

DI PETSA presents HOLY MILK, its Spring/Summer 2027 collection, exploring the sacred roots, symbolism and ritual of motherhood, and the connection between the body and the natural world through the ocean as a maternal force.

For SS27 / Spring/Summer 2027, Dimitra Petsa turns to motherhood as both an ancient ritual and an intimate process of becoming. HOLY MILK considers not only the experience of giving birth to another life, but the possibility of giving birth to oneself anew of carrying the different selves that emerge as we grow and change.

“We are pregnant with our own self. We give birth to dif erent versions of ourselves when we grow too large inside us to be hidden and then again will be reborn.”

This idea of self mothering sits at the centre of DI PETSA SS27 / Spring/Summer 2027 collection. Drawing on mythological and ritualistic associations of milk as maternal, erotic, spiritual and transformative, DI PETSA considers milk as both substance and symbol: intimate to the body, yet connected to the wider natural world. The collection unfolds through a vocabulary of white, translucency, lace, draping and luminosity, creating a sense of softness and divine beauty. Bridal silhouettes appear alongside fluid, body conscious forms, while liquid surfaces and exposed skin introduce a more visceral quality. White is interrupted by deep blue, black and liquid gold, creating a shifting palette between purity, sensuality and drama.

Styled by Ramona Tabita, the collection moves between pared back exposure and elaborate adornment. Bare skin is set against draped jersey, delicate lace, translucent layers and sculptural silhouettes, while bridal volumes are contrasted with close-fitting, body-conscious forms.

AWE INSPIRED × DI PETSA Collaboration, For SS27, DI PETSA collaborates with Awe Inspired, Official Jewelry Partner of the show, on a jewellery collection created in dialogue with the world of HOLY MILK. The jewellery becomes an extension of the body and an integral part of the collection’s visual language. Pearls, stones, chains and sun motifs appear across layered necklaces, sculptural chokers, cascading earrings and body pieces, creating a vocabulary of adornment that moves between delicacy and strength. Awe Inspired’s distinctive “WET” pieces echo DI PETSA’s longstanding fascination with water and the fluidity of the body. Suspended forms sit close to the skin, introducing movement and luminosity, while heavier chains and sculptural pieces create a more ceremonial presence. Throughout the show, jewellery is worn directly against the body and integrated into the silhouettes falling across the décolletage, framing the face and tracing the body. The result is a meeting of jewellery and garment in which adornment becomes part of the transformation itself.

The collaboration will debut on the DI PETSA SS27 runway in London, with the Awe Inspired × DI PETSA Spring/Summer 2027 jewellery collection launching commercially in March 2027.

THE PERFORMANCE of DI PETSA SS27 / Spring/Summer 2027, Following DI PETSA’s recent theatre production at The Barbican, HOLY MILK will be presented as a live performance, continuing Petsa’s exploration of the space between fashion, ritual and performance art. The runway becomes a surreal dreamscape of transformation, creation and rebirth, with garments incorporated into a living ritual around milk and water. Mothers, pregnant models and models carrying glasses of milk move through the space, bringing the collection’s central themes into physical form.

Among the presentation’s defining pieces is a sculptural lactating bra, which releases streams of milk during the performance. The piece creates a striking commentary on motherhood, the body and care as spectacle, placing an intimate act within the highly constructed world of the fashion runway. In HOLY MILK, fashion becomes part of a larger ritual one concerned with motherhood, self creation and the continual process of becoming and being reborn.
