For the Spring/Summer 2026 season, Rick Owens' vision insinuates itself into the folds of Moncler's DNA to give life to an unprecedented aesthetic collision, where the architectural rigor of Berlin meets the primordial freedom of wild nature.. It is what the Californian designer defines with a cutting neologism, “brucolic”: an exploration that blends the monumental concrete of German brutalism with the bucolic idyll of urban greenery.. Abandoning the classic idea of winter outerwear, the collection transforms into a light and radical summer uniform, conceived for those who live on the edges of the metropolis.
The silhouettes are sculptures in motion that challenge conventional proportions: exaggerated and sculptural shoulders alternate with cropped cuts and tailored nips, while the iconic “Geocamo” quilting evokes the geometric facades of Berlin buildings.. In this dance of volumes, the wardrobe opens up to a gender-neutral fluidity where kilts, shorts and asymmetrical jersey skirts slide over tonal trekking socks and Trailgrip Megalace sneakers, ready to tackle both asphalt and mud.. The color palette, while remaining anchored to the tones of dust, black and vintage olive, suddenly lights up with a bold Carniolan red, a new chromatic vibration that marks the evolution of this collaboration..
Sealing this story are the intimate and visceral images of Juergen Teller, who portrays Rick Owens himself with his partner and muse Michèle Lamy in a candid and human atmosphere, celebrating passion and connection beyond the aesthetics of the product.. It's not just fashion, it's an organic body of work that elevates the technical to the artistic, setting a new standard for contemporary luxury..
