Orange Culture Fall/Winter 2026
by Adriano Batista
Presented during Berlin Fashion Week, Orange Culture’s Fall/Winter 2026 collection, Backyards of Memory, was an exploration of memory, warmth, and the spaces that shape us. The collection acts as a continuation of his previous work, which honoured his late mother. Here, he turns to the safe, vivid memories of his childhood backyard in Nigeria.
That backyard is more than a setting; it is the heart of the collection. Okelawal describes it as the place where life unfolded: where clothes dried on lines, children played, and laughter mixed with silence. The collection is not an attempt to rebuild the past, but to honour its comfort and joy, preserving a sense of intimacy after loss.
Aesthetically, it stays true to the brand’s language. Gender-fluid silhouettes combine sculptural tailoring with softness and flow. The focus is on craft and texture, seen in hand-dyed fabrics, macramé and crochet dresses, fringed sweaters, and hand-pleated trousers. Fabrics move gently, and the colour palette draws from sunlight, earth, and the passage of time.
Collaboration is central to this work. Okelawal views it as a responsibility. The collection was developed with a community of African and diasporic talents: sculptural handbags by Kisara, expressive prints by Paolo Sisiano, footwear by Moni Morgan and Kkerele, belts by King Daviid, and jewelry by In Jewels. Local artisans contributed hand-dyed fabrics and detailed finishes, adding a poetic, sensuous depth.
