The Rabanne Pre-Fall 2026 collection, looks appear at once familiar and unexpected, twisting influences and inspirations.

Pre-Fall explores a hybridized attitude of sophistication and cool. Key looks span Western detailing on a vintage-inspired suede coat; a vaguely Victorian printed dress in a relaxed register; a tailored jacket over a swirling paillette top; chainmail adorning a knit dress; delicate embroidered under-layers peeking out from collars and skirt hems; the ease of a long sweater dress. Small details read like secret feminine codes: from a tiny silver bow at the waist of a cinched, satiny ensemble to sky blue jersey studded with starry motifs. The belt buckle from SS26 returns; now more exaggerated and daring, the waist highly defined.

Beach looks hybridize eras through silhouettes and surface treatments. Throwback ’70s graphic stripes mix with synthetic florals; beaded fringes and rippling embellishments transform lingerie dresses into glamorous statements; a blousy bandeau and pencil skirt or a shirt knotted at the front put a fresh twist on the’50s vibe of SS26. Silver sequin ballerinas, chunky flip-flops and body jewelry add a contemporary touch. The latest bags build upon the signatures: a 1969 baguette shape and the Ring re-edited as both an XL tote and a mini handbag. Chocolate brown woven raffia and metal converge as a compact bucket style.

Across both collections are pieces that feel direct yet imbued with character.
