… LIGHTNESS, STRUCTURE, & THE ART OF PARISIAN EASE
For High Summer 2026, Roger Vivier offers a quietly radical proposition: summer as a state of mind, not a destination. Under the creative direction of Gherardo Felloni, the new collection reframes warm-weather dressing through the house’s singular lens, where Parisian savoir-faire meets the effortless spirit of the shore.
At the core of the collection is a sensitive dialogue between texture and precision. Woven raffia, appearing across key footwear and accessory silhouettes, brings an organic, sun-touched tactility, while remaining impeccably structured. The maison’s signature crystal buckles are reimagined with a luminous, almost aqueous clarity, catching light without overwhelming the line. Airy silhouettes and softened forms evoke movement and ease, yet every piece retains the architectural discipline that has defined Roger Vivier since 1937.
Felloni’s achievement this season lies in restraint, there is no literal seaside motif, no decorative overstatement. Instead, the collection gently displaces the house’s familiar codes, recontextualising them for a summer that is lived in the city as much as by the sea. The result feels simultaneously anchored and liberated, refined, but never rigid.
For the retail buyers, stylists, and luxury editors, this is a collection that answers a clear market demand, sophisticated warm-weather pieces that transcend occasion. From sculptural sandals in natural fibres to softly constructed bags that move between day and evening, each piece is designed for a woman who carries her own joie de vivre with her.
Roger Vivier’s High Summer 2026 whispers with confidence, it is about bringing summer beautifully and precisely, into every step.
