Lauren Manoogian Spring 2027 Ready-to-Wear: Metallic Crinkles and Unstructured Texture

For spring 2027, Lauren Manoogian and Chris Fireoved introduced silver foiled fabric and three types of metal-woven fabric, shifting knits from the main focus to part of a broader mix. The collection emphasized unstructured texture, with wrinkled, raw-edged materials and techniques like knotting applied to both wovens and knits. A pewter-y Lurex tank was paired with the brand's "first real jeans," which have a relaxed fit. A roomy vest with shoulder pads and big pants featured shaggy edges; the trousers' wrapped-leg effect came from a "huge inverted pleat." A brimmed hat made with Japanese milliner Kijima Takayuki, worn with a short, bell-shaped khaki jacket, evoked a fisherman vibe. An airy vest hand-knit from raffia-like fabric strips added dryness. A holey knit with polka-dot voids was hand-loomed, not cut out. The collection also expanded menswear; Fireoved noted that men are buying smaller sizes while women choose oversized pieces, contrary to expectations. Metallic crinkles appeared on trench coats and collaged panel dresses.
