Suzie Kondi designs from memory and from place. The color of a coastline, a knit worn soft over years of travel, the warmth of somewhere you didn't want to leave. For Autumn 2026, those memories travel to France—from the striped cliffs of Normandy's Alabaster Coast to the pines of the Chevreuse forest. Two locations: one wild and open, the other intimate and still. One idea: structure found in softness.

The new collection, captured by photographer Łukasz Pukowiec and stylist Clare Richardson, moves in crushed velour in saturated shades, cotton poplin layers, and hand knit cashmere.

The architect Jacques Couëlle built Villa Goupil in 1967 to curve like the forest around it. The clothes, too, refuse rigidity.
