Acne Studios Fall/Winter 2026
by Adriano Batista
For Fall/Winter 2026, Acne Studios reflects on its own history. Creative Director Jonny Johansson notes that after thirty years, the brand has moved from being the young newcomer to having its own legacy. This collection explores that passage of time, focusing on how classic codes evolve.
The central theme is a new narrative built on admiration, not irony. It looks at how a younger generation studies and reinterprets menswear, mixing traditional tailoring with vintage-inspired pieces.
A key return is the straight-leg 1996 jean silhouette, slightly updated but true to its original shape. The washes suggest wear and repair. Trompe l’oeil treatments mimic photocopied or collaged jeans, sometimes interrupted with real tape, blurring illusion and reality. Leather is integrated naturally as trim, pockets, and full looks, adding a lived-in feel.
Alongside this denim focus is a clear idolization of menswear codes. There are silk foulards knotted at the neck, precise trouser lengths, roll-neck knits under tailored jackets, and boxy shirts with open collars. Tailoring is elegant, with waisted double-breasted blazers, slender wool coats, and trousers that are cropped or gently flared in a 1970s nod.
There’s a push-and-pull between reverence and reinterpretation throughout. Crinkled poplin shirts and worn-in jersey refresh classic pieces. Cashmere knits are layered, and argyle patterns appear intentionally disrupted. A padded velvet jacket and pinstripe tailoring play with formality. Outerwear includes suede flight jackets, Harrington styles, and a Loden coat with an unexpected high slit.
Accessories act as anchors. The Camero bag returns, and sunglasses recall 1970s aviators. Belts feature vintage hardware, and silk scarves are worn persistently under knits or shirts. Oxfords and loafers look lovingly mended, while ankle boots have a slim fit with an exaggerated, sloped-up toe.
