CAMPERLAB AND ITS CREATIVE DIRECTOR, ACHILLES ION GABRIEL, PRESENT THE FALL–WINTER 2026 COLLECTION.

ROOTED IN MEMORIES OF THE POLAR WINTERS OF LAPLAND, THE SEASON IS AN ODE TO ACHILLES’ CHILDHOOD IN THE NORTHERNMOST PART OF FINLAND. SET WITHIN A PIERCING BLIZZARD, THE SHOW TRANSPORTS THE AUDIENCE INTO A STATE OF SOLITARY EXISTENCE, HARSH BY NATURE, YET MARKED BY MOMENTS OF ABRUPT SERENITY AND CLARITY.

THE PRESENTATION UNFOLDS AROUND TWENTY WINDSWEPT CHARACTERS, FORMED BY AN UNASSUMING CAST OF MODELS, TALENTS, AND STREET-CAST INDIVIDUALS. KISSED BY SUB-ZERO TEMPERATURES, SOME APPEAR DRESSED SIMPLY TO GATHER WOOD TO HEAT A COTTAGE, WHILE OTHERS ARE EQUIPPED TO ENDURE PROLONGED CONDITIONS OF POLAR NIGHTS.

SILHOUETTES SWAY BETWEEN SHRUNKEN AND LOOSE, WITH DESTROYED FINISHES AND A WIDE RANGE OF TREATMENTS AND WASHES. THE RESULT IS A COLLECTION THAT FEELS DEEPLY PERSONAL WHILE MAINTAINING AN ALMOST ACCIDENTAL HARMONY. THE COLOR PALETTE IS BUILT ON COLD, WORN TONES OF BROWN, WHITE, GRAY, AND LIGHT BLUE, ACCENTUATED BY HINTS OF AURORA-INSPIRED PINK AND PETROL. STANDOUT MATERIALS INCLUDE WEATHERED WHITE OSTRICH-EMBOSSED LEATHERS, HEAVY WAXED COTTONS, LONG-PILE WOOLS, SIGNATURE BRUSH-OFF LEATHERS, AND A MIX OF TREATED AND CLASSIC CAMPERLAB PRINTED DENIM PIECES.
