Brand co-founder Gildas Loa\u00ebc stated:<\/span><\/p>

Abigail brings more craftsmanship, creativity, and narrative ability, allowing us to present a modern wardrobe with clear silhouettes and a compelling story.

Paris \u00d7 Tokyo: A Dual Language of City and Nature<\/strong><\/p>

In clothing design, Smiley-Smith continues and deepens Maison Kitsun\u00e9's long-standing Paris-Tokyo cultural dual axis. This season's inspiration comes from the highly concentrated cultural energy of Paris and the closeness to the outdoors and nature in Tokyo's urban life\u2014with Mount Fuji as a daily backdrop, making \"getting close to nature\" a part of life.<\/span><\/p>

This lifestyle also reflected in the design vocabulary of the series.<\/span><\/p>

The collection uses knitwear, outerwear, and denim as the core of the wardrobe, creating silhouettes that combine a sense of coverage with mobility through fluffy and soft alpaca knitwear and well-structured functional outerwear.<\/b><\/p>

Upgraded materials create a truly wearable modern wardrobe.<\/span><\/p>

This season, Maison Kitsun\u00e9 has significantly strengthened its material selection, using higher-quality cashmere, alpaca, and Japanese functional fabrics to achieve a balance between functionality and texture in the overall wardrobe.<\/span><\/p>

This season clearly emphasizes material selection, striking a balance between functionality and texture to create a truly wearable modern wardrobe.<\/b><\/p>

Outerwear and bomber jackets feature slingback straps, while water-repellent jackets, down jackets, and fleece pieces offer practical solutions for both urban living and outdoor mobility. The collection also continues the brand's long-standing, key element\u2014preppy aesthetics\u2014with evolving motifs on baseball jackets, denim jackets, and T-shirts, retaining brand identity while exuding a more mature and understated style.<\/span><\/p>

The spirit of the fox: a return to the everyday and humor.<\/span><\/p>

As a symbol of Maison Kitsun\u00e9, the fox appears this season in a freer, more playful way, yet without being childish. Alpaca headgear with fox ears becomes one of the collection's memorable features, but the overall design remains restrained and mature.<\/span><\/p>

In response, Abigail Smiley-Smith stated:<\/span><\/p>

Clothes don't need to be overly sanctified; they should be worn and used in daily life\u2014that's what matters most.<\/b><\/p>

Lifestyle is always the core.<\/span><\/p>

During the launch event, models walked naturally holding Caf\u00e9 Kitsun\u00e9 coffee cups, accompanied by live music performed by DJs from the Kitsun\u00e9 music label. The details were not just about the styling, but a concrete representation of the brand's stance.<\/span><\/p>

For Maison Kitsun\u00e9, clothing is never an isolated element, but rather an integral part of their lifestyle.<\/b><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Smiley-Smith further pointed out:<\/span><\/p>

Music and coffee are the gateways to the brand's world. I want everyone to feel like they are a part of it; this inclusivity is at the main purpose of Maison Kitsun\u00e9.<\/b><\/p>

With the unveiling of its Fall\/Winter 2026 collection, Maison Kitsun\u00e9 returns to the Paris Fashion Week stage with a more mature, coherent, and long-term vision.<\/span><\/p>

This is not just a series of presentations, but a clear declaration of the future direction of a brand spanning Paris and Tokyo.<\/b><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
