Amir Taghi Spring 2027 Ready-to-Wear Draws on Persian Heritage and Texas Roots

Amir Taghi unveiled his ready-to-wear collection for spring 2027, merging his Iranian roots with the Southern aesthetic of Houston. His family relocated from Iran during the 1980s, and the influence of Persian culture is evident in his designs. The collection showcases prints drawn from his childhood, featuring elements like wallpaper and blooms from his grandfather’s garden. A dress's neckline is inspired by architectural details from his grandmother's home. Additionally, a jacket and a beaded top reflect the patterns of a Qashqai kilim rug, while a military jacket incorporates earthy stones instead of gems. Taghi emphasized the urgency of his creations amidst the war, aiming to portray the humanity of Iranians. Approximately 90% of his sales stem from trunk shows across various cities, which help him refine his designs. This season, he also introduced unfinished hems.
