Dagmar Spring 2027 Ready-to-Wear: Sofia Wallenstam and Rachel Proud Design for a Changing Climate
Sofia Wallenstam and Rachel Proud have teamed up to introduce the Dagmar Spring 2027 ready-to-wear collection, which they unveiled in a lookbook. Their designs focus on comfort, catering to a warming climate where extreme heat is expected. Wallenstam explained that the pieces are intended for real-life situations rather than a vacation vibe. The collection, primarily in black and white, features sleek tank dresses, including one with a striking scoop back, and a textured slip dress with a drawstring neckline. Other highlights include a light A-line cami with ruffles and a sleeveless bodysuit paired with high-waisted pants reminiscent of the 1930s. A standout item is a loose beige jacket with a relaxed fit, perfect for a stylish yet professional look. Wallenstam described the overall feel of the collection as having an appealing, slightly imperfect quality, with a standout two-seam dress that drapes beautifully off one shoulder, capturing that effortless summer spirit.
