MCM unveiled its Spring/Summer 2026 collection at Casa degli Artisti in Milan, drawing an audience of global tastemakers and celebrities including Ice Spice, Bach Buquen, Chiara Biasi, Janis Danner, Nelly Simao, Mariama Diallo, Yves Mathieu East, and Malik Lindo.


The presentation, titled The Art of Motion, reimagined the philosophy of Taekwondo through fashion, exploring balance, flow, and discipline as guiding principles. Oversized martial arts belts were transformed into sculptural strapless dresses, while judo knots anchored bold mini silhouettes. Quilted bomber jackets, crisp shirting, and pleated trousers highlighted the interplay between structure and fluidity, with each piece designed to move with the wearer rather than simply adorn them.

Chief Brand Officer Dirk Schönberger described the collection as “a dialogue between tradition and innovation,” noting that Taekwondo’s focus on respect and movement shaped both the design language and the immersive environment. Casa degli Artisti was transformed into a contemporary dojo, complete with installations and an AI-powered hologram developed in collaboration with Capsa Studio, deepening the brand’s storytelling approach.
Alongside ready-to-wear, MCM showcased a curated selection of leather goods from its SS26 lineup, offering an intimate preview of its next chapter as the house approaches its 50th anniversary in 2026.
