LEBLANCSTUDIOS Spring/Summer 2026
by Adriano Batista
LeBlancStudios presents its Spring/Summer 2026 collection, “Museum of Common Oddities.” In a time when clothing can feel separate from daily life, the designers approached this work as one would a film or a novel. It becomes a method to process political uncertainty and the weight of social history. For them, this felt like an honest path forward.
The work lives in dreams, memories, and emotion. It asks pressing questions: What are garments to an immigrant? What is a suit to someone exiled? Can a piece of cloth become a home? The setting for these questions is a fictional museum, a place where exiled thinkers, forgotten people, and militants converge. This space holds tension and reflection, mixing reality with spectacle.
The collection itself lives within these ideas. Structured wool blazers with leather collars cover most of the skin, their pockets placed in unexpected spots. They contrast with lightweight cotton blazers that feel intentionally off. One elongated shirting blazer fits close to the body, its shoulders and armholes holding a quiet tension.
The shirts reject a sentimental view of the past. A yellow cotton shirt has three diagonal seams running from sleeve to sleeve, changing its entire shape. Another shirt carries the archival images of two Dominican girls. A linen pajama shirt gets interrupted with distressed denim stripes, challenging the definitions of private life and rupture.
Denim appears in new configurations. Trousers are reassembled from their own parts, with hems moved to the knees to form pockets. Pleated raw denim trousers with hidden waistbands are made for formal wear. A skirt in waxed cotton, with tonal printed polka dots and a heavy texture, drapes as if tied on the thigh.
There is a specific focus on reinterpretation. The Dominican chacabana is explored in three forms: an aviator jacket in nylon wool with padded sleeves, a military printed shirt, and a color-blocked silk shirt. A uniform shirt from the Popular y Secular party is changed. Its cargo pocket is distressed, and slits are cut along the sleeves. These adjustments bring a feminine touch. The shirt, once purely functional, now suggests something else, existing between a vest and a shirt, between utility and allusion.
