RUNDHOLZ SPRING/SUMMER '26
For Spring/Summer ’26, RUNDHOLZ explores the balance between strength and softness, structure and emotion. Across MAINLINE, DIP and BLACK LABEL, Carsten Rundholz presents a season defined by expressive form, considered fabrication and the freedom of personal interpretation. Sculptural silhouettes meet romantic atmospheres and refined everyday ease, unified by a shared language of proportion, texture and movement. SS26 is a collection built to be worn instinctively - layered, contrasted and styled with confidence - capturing RUNDHOLZ at its most modern, poetic and assured.
URBAN EXPRESSION
RUNDHOLZ MAINLINE
The RUNDHOLZ MAINLINE Spring/Summer ’26 collection lands with unmistakable impact. Carsten Rundholz once again shifts the boundaries of the house’s visual language, channelling a modern streetwear sensibility through the lens of the brand’s sculptural, avant-garde design codes. Signature statement silhouettes and exaggerated proportions remain central, but this season they are reframed through skater-inspired denim trousers, hand-painted graffiti motifs, and an elevated exploration of bold primary colour.
Denim is a pillar of the collection, offered in an array of washes—from indigo faded to stonewash and chalky paper tones—each treatment enhancing the architectural shapes RUNDHOLZ is known for. A standout is the fitted denim jacket, constructed with adjustable vertical gathering that allows the wearer to sculpt the silhouette. It’s a piece that reinforces the designer’s innate understanding of proportion and the female form, echoed again in the impeccably cut denim trousers.
Colour adds a new, striking freshness. Vibrant reds, blues, black, and white ground the season’s energy, while softer Marshmallow and Paper shades create a sleek, neutral counterpoint for those who prefer understatement. The lightweight Cupro group introduces an ethereal fluidity, taking pigment with exceptional depth and movement, and linen knits provide an easy way to layer colour or texture as desired.
This is a collection designed for interpretation. For the RUNDHOLZ woman eager to make a bold statement, the expressive graffiti prints appear across multiple silhouettes. For the minimalist devotee, crisp neutrals and beautifully considered fabrications offer a refined canvas. Spring/Summer ’26 is RUNDHOLZ at its most dynamic: artistic, urban, and confidently modern.
ROMANTICISM IN MOTION
RUNDHOLZ DIP
The RUNDHOLZ DIP Spring/Summer ’26 collection unfolds with a quiet, poetic sensibility, offering a romantic counterpoint to the sharper, urban energy of MAINLINE. This season, Carsten Rundholz turns toward atmosphere and emotion, drawing on painterly traditions where colour, texture and movement dissolve softly into one another.
The palette is washed and ethereal — Amber, Sky, Seafoam, Seaweed and Linen — each tone treated with fog, cloud and softened dye techniques that create depth rather than flat colour. Much like Romantic landscape painting, hues appear layered and atmospheric, shifting subtly across the surface of lightweight fabrics. Semi-sheer Cottons and cloud-dyed Cupro form the backbone of the collection, lending an airy fluidity that enhances the sense of movement and lightness throughout.
Romantic detailing is central. Lace trims, ruffles and puffed sleeves introduce softness and femininity, while toile-inspired scenic prints recall pastoral narratives and classical decorative arts. Elsewhere, darker, more expressive painterly surfaces emerge, seen in pieces such as the overalls, cropped jackets and tailored separates, where fabrics appear washed, stained and worked by hand rather than overtly printed. These abstract finishes create depth and atmosphere, introducing a moodier, emotional counterpoint to the collection’s softer elements. The result feels instinctive and familiar within the RUNDHOLZ DIP language: romantic, slightly raw, and driven by process rather than pattern.
Modernity is never lost. Denim remains a key element, grounding the collection with structure and subtle urban influence. Tailored silhouettes are reimagined through a romantic lens: puff sleeves offset clean lines, metal buttons punctuate soft forms, and bustled backs on denim maxi skirts introduce volume without excess. The balance between softness and structure feels deliberate and refined.
Above all, DIP SS26 is a collection about layering and personal interpretation. Pieces are designed to be worn together in nuanced combinations — sheer over solid, romantic against utilitarian — allowing the wearer to build an individual look that feels both timeless and modern. It is RUNDHOLZ at its most poetic: expressive, tactile and quietly powerful.
EASE, REFINED
RUNDHOLZ BLACK LABEL
The RUNDHOLZ BLACK LABEL Spring/Summer ’26 collection unfolds with a sense of calm and clarity, defined by a serene palette of green-led tones - Mint, Tree, Grass, Lime and Salina. The mood is understated yet directional, focusing on texture, proportion and ease rather than overt statement.
New fabrications introduce fresh structure for the season, including an embossed, crisp Cotton that shapes voluminous skirts and sculptural tulip dresses. Alongside these innovations, the collection revisits much-loved RUNDHOLZ signatures: a strong Linen group, staple wide-leg trousers, effortlessly wearable Techno fabrics and lightweight knits designed for layering. The result is a quietly confident wardrobe — modern, tactile and unmistakably RUNDHOLZ.
