Maitrepierre Fall 2026 Ready to Wear Runway, Fashion Show & Collection Review
Alphonse Maitrepierre described his fall 2026 collection as a study of crossroads: people moving through a city, living and breathing. He watched them through a retro-futuristic, RPG-influenced lens, where the everyday becomes elevated — and a bit animated.
He cited Jean-Luc Godard’s sci‑fi film “Alphaville,” set in a society drained of emotion, as a key reference. He was particularly drawn to the moment when the main character “destroyed the whole city by bringing some poetry to the people there and linking them again with their feelings.” That image of poetry reawakening a numb world underpinned the collection. For Maitrepierre, ordinary clothes can become poetic when pushed just far enough into strangeness. True to his signature, he repurposed recycled materials using couture-level techniques to imagine what the characters in his universe would wear.For that, he worked with a subdued color palette of grays, browns, dark and natural tones, and let cut and construction do the talking. Striped jerseys were woven into graphic surfaces that recall people crossing streets. A classic polo was spliced into a coat, and a ballgown morphed into a hooded tracksuit dress with big volume. He also offered a body-hugging draped dress in red, a bustier dress with laser-cut fringes, and an asymmetric miniskirt in faux fur. All examples of his ethos of elevating the everyday..
