Ben Doctor’s Spring/Summer 2026 Show

This year’s show parades the wondering promises of midcentury air travel, and the working flight attendant. Formerly christened with A-line uniforms, this season’s flight attendant features midcentury shapes with a taste of flight in our modern era: a bus in the sky.

ABOUT BEN DOCTOR

Ben Doctor NEW YORK is characterized by a fusion of vintage Americana and contemporary urban grit. Drawing inspiration from metropolitan life in the 50’s and 60’s, our clothes feature ginghams, structured silhouettes, exaggerated trims, and bold color. Often contrasted with distressed texture, unconventional material, and experimental tailoring. Our focus is to derive a visual and wearable dialogue between past and contemporary life, style, and culture in New York.

ABOUT SNEEX

Sneex, founded by Sara Blakely, is a hybrid heel (hy-heel) that blends the sophistication of a stiletto with the technology of a sneaker. Sneex innovation solves the biggest pain points women universally experience wearing high heels, married with a bold and playful aesthetic. They are a unique addition to a woman’s collection of shoes and can be styled with anything from denim to gowns. Sneex are designed to challenge the rules women have been made to follow. The brand launched in August 2024 and was selected in the same year at the Footwear News Achievement Awards for Launch of the Year, and at the Global Footwear Awards as the overall winner for Women’s Fashion Sneakers, recognizing groundbreaking footwear designs.

ABOUT APPLEDOLL

AppleDoll has its eye on the future of makeup. Experimentation, exploration, individuality, and play are at the forefront of what beauty means to us. Both current and emerging demographics connect with our “art over perfection” approach to branding and marketing as well as our authentic and far-reaching commitment to clean, vegan, sustainable, and equitable practices and products. Beauty does not exist within a vacuum, so AppleDoll utilizes vintage makeup movements to craft the future of makeup and what it can do. AppleDoll loves beauty with a bite, and lips are where we started. Since unveiling The Kiss lipstick, our best selling product to date, we heard from AppleDolls that they desired more ways to accentuate the beauty of their lips. We listened, and have since successfully launched Tinted Nectar Salve, Nectar Salve, and Nocturnal Lip Liners. Next up, Loverboy Highlighter . In every product that we dream up, the goal is to give our dolls the tools to come as they are and leave as they want to be.

“The art of transformation unites the worlds of AppleDoll and Ben Doctor. Makeup and fashion exist in tandem. Both are incredibly powerful tools that should be wielded with intention and care. Behind the beauty, we share a mutual commitment to self-expression, exploration, and play. We’re honored to work with a brand who holds values so close to our own. Together, AppleDoll and Ben Doctor reimagine vintage glamour to dream up the future of aesthetics.” Madeleine Favreau – AppleDoll’s Founder
