NUANCE: Dreamlike Gradations with Maison Ziad Nakad Paris Fashion Week

With “Nuance,” Lebanese designer Ziad Nakad unveils his new Ready-to-Wear collection for Spring/Summer 2026, a story told through softness, movement, and light.

The palette is a symphony of pastels, powder blue, blush pink, and apricot, illuminated by the purity of white and punctuated with delicate strokes of black, adding depth and quiet drama. Each shade speaks of the season’s fleeting light, from dawn’s freshness to dusk’s allure.

At the heart of the collection lie long, fluid dresses that capture a sense of weightless grace. Jumpsuits bring modern functionality, while sculpted coats and tailored blazers become signature statements. For the first time, Nakad introduces a line of belts, graced with a new emblem, an intimate signature that renews the house’s identity.

Maison Ziad Nakad

“Nuance” is a meditation on gradations. In color, it explores transitions from soft to bold, sometimes within a single garment, where hues merge in a living dialogue. In fabric, it dances between the delicacy of crepe, chiffon, tulle, and lace, to the ethereal flutter of feathers and the sparkle of embellishment. Each piece unfolds a different mood, offering women a spectrum of choices for different moments of life.

Lightness is the thread that ties the collection together: garments that feel effortless, designed for celebrations, for women of every age who desire elegance and ease in equal measure. “Nuance,” is fluid, luminous, and timeless, an invitation to step into a spring evening or a summer night with unspoken grace.
