For his Fall-Winter 2026 collection, designer Christophe Guillarmé was inspired by iconic movie “ 9 ½ Weeks ”, and the famous Kim Basinger striptease scene behind the shutters that creates a play of uneven stripes, echoing the jerky, sensual rhythm of horizontal stripes.
Christophe offers silhouettes with embossed ribbed textures, cascading of multi ruffles, in high contrast.
Onyx black and burgundy hues echo to the deep shadows of the blinds. Cosmetic nude recalls diaphanous skin under the light. Warm amber evokes the glow of late afternoon. Embroideries of matte and shiny tubes are used to create a sophisticated striation effect.
An optical illusion where the garment appears to be composed solely of light and darkness.
