This season, brands are looking back in order to look forward. Vintage-inspired palettes, prints and textures dominated the spring/summer 2027 runways, proving that the style set’s collective and overwhelming sense of nostalgia isn’t wavering anytime soon.
From Seventies-coded outerwear staples to Fifties-esque prom dresses, the runway rallied for storied pieces that looked as though they’d been unearthed from the designers’ grandmothers’ wardrobes.
Tapestry textiles were a key aesthetic to emerge from the catwalk this September. A form of textile art in which threads are carefully woven together to create a decorative image or pattern, rather than printed or embroidered onto a finished fabric, tapestry has historically been used to depict elaborate scenes, florals and ornamental motifs, often in rich, jewel-toned colours.

Dries Van Noten clad its autumn/winter 2026 collection in gilded tapestried silhouettes, blazing a trail for brands to follow suit a season later. Maximalist blooms unfurled across the designer's dazzling offering of heavyweight coats, skirts, dresses and party-ready bandeau tops.

A high octane fusion of chintzy florals and rock ‘n’ roll glamour, the tapestry takeover has officially arrived. Shop our favourite pieces below.
