Andreas Kronthaler celebrated 21 years at the helm of Vivienne Westwood with a Fall 2026 RTW collection that pulled from multiple inspirations to shape a season that felt unapologetically larger than life.

The Fall collection unfolded like a new chapter of fashion theater. Checkered car coats opened the show, layered over strappy, lingerie-inspired pieces that set the tone for the lineup’s playful provocation. Oversized glittering hats swayed down the runway beside sharply structured silk suits and netted face coverings, while latex skirts, striped blazers, and sheer stockings blurred the lines between menswear and womenswear.

Elsewhere, fabrics were draped and twisted around the body to heighten movement, styled with knit tunics and bleached trucker jackets that added a rebellious edge. The show closed with characteristic humor: a bridal suit crowned with a bouquet of radishes — a wink to the house’s enduring blend of romance, satire, and spectacle.
