Dries Van Noten Spring Summer 2026
Julian Klausner is riding a wave of momentum. After his sarong-heavy men’s debut sparked a ripple of office-ready beachwear this summer, his Spring 2026 women’s collection doubled down on joy, ease, and optimism, this time via surfing.
The runway unfurled like a tide, moving from soft whites and grays into high-impact hues of lime, coral, and hot pink. Shapes oscillated between second-skin scuba silhouettes and breezy caftan volumes, punctuated by striped knitsthat nodded—intentionally or not—to pop-culture surfers past.
More pronounced than his mentor Van Noten, Klausner’s palette felt younger, brighter, and more playful, though his command of craft ensured longtime devotees stayed engaged. A cropped bullion-embroidered blazer paired with a hibiscus-beaded pencil skirt showcased his knack for fusing exuberance with refinement.
With surf culture as his muse, Klausner proved his instincts can turn eccentric sparks into wearable waves.
