At Paris Men’s Fashion Week, NAMESAKE’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection, INNERCHILD, didn’t just show clothes but also memories. The designs pulled from scout uniforms, playground nostalgia, and sports jerseys, turning them into something polished but still full of feeling. The references were clear (films like Stand By Me and Jerry Maguire lingered in the details), but the execution was precise, with sharp tailoring and careful proportions that made even relaxed pieces feel intentional.

The clothes walked a line between grown-up sophistication and childlike play. Suits kept their structure but had small, clever tweaks in shape. Fabrics were high-quality, colors muted but warm, like faded yearbook photos. It wasn’t costume-y; it was clothes for someone who’s older now but still carries those early years with them.
