FOR SPRING/ Summer 2026, HARRI strips back the spectacle from high art to refining its latex mastery into wearable pieces that merge art, culture, and a streetwear edge.
Best known for being a brand that explores fashion as both experience and performance, often in unconventional ways but globally successful, the brand was awarded the BFC Fashion Trust in 2025. Originally gaining brand recognition and fame for its work with latex, HARRI pushed boundaries with its craft, striking three-dimensional forms.
Yet, this collection takes a different route, aiming to make the clothes more liveable. The collection, named Museumwear, offers a more subtle vision and a debut into ready-to-wear.
Across a myriad of jackets, vests, and trousers, the pleasure of wearing HARRI is still maintained through its signature and identifiable latex. The jackets came in rich shades of brown and deep black, grounding the collection in wearability, while flashes of silver and a mint-blue cropped style pushed latex into unexpected territory, striking a balance between experimentation and function.
Denim two-pieces and jeans broke up the latex-led garments, softening the overall mood with a more casual energy. The denim is often treated with printed patterns and geometric washes, adding depth and a tactile edge to the fabric.
Chic, boxy wide-leg styles are paired with tailored latex jackets, giving the ensembles a streetwear sharpness that feels both grounded and futuristic. This interplay of latex sheen against patterned denim reinforces HARRI’s ability to merge performance with practicality, without losing its bold identity.
What catches the eye most are the bags, designed to brighten the collection and spark conversation. Used consistently, they add pops of colour and texture, punctuating darker, stronger silhouettes with moments of playfulness—like a tiny yellow bag styled with a huge boxy top. One design detail sees the bags crafted from beaded vests, a technique also applied to the garments themselves, creating a sense of continuity between accessory and clothing.
This new direction does not erase the brand’s identity. Elements of bold form remain, from inflated latex square shoulders—reminiscent of an American football uniform—to styled black shiny trousers that temper the sage-green top, and twin models in sculptural hoodies. Like folded bat wings, pillars protrude from the shoulders with dramatic force. These designs recall earlier collections where geometry was at the forefront.
This collection is made for those who appreciate culture. The clothing acts as a bridge between art and life, accessible to anyone willing to communicate with its design language. By stripping back from extreme silhouettes, HARRI opens itself to a wider audience while staying true to its artistic core.
