This Valentino x Mytheresa capsule draws on the archives of the Roman house to create the perfect summer wardrobe.
Valentino strikes hard for summer 2026. In exclusive partnership with the Mytheresa platform, the Roman label unveils a Resort capsule designed for the summer months. Available since May 27, this collection embodies the art of summer living with elegance and lightness.
An exclusive collaboration between Valentino and Mytheresa
For this season, the Italian fashion house has teamed up with Mytheresa for a worldwide exclusive. Alessandro Michele, Valentino’s artistic director, has created a wardrobe dedicated to the most refined getaways. Between an imaginary Riviera and contemporary softness, the Resort 2026 collection captures this season’s desire to escape.
Mytheresa accompanied the launch with a campaign photographed by Alexandra A. Garcia. Model Stella Lucia poses in luminous images that convey the spirit of the collection. The wardrobe is both sophisticated and casual, in keeping with the aesthetic of the Roman fashion house.
This capsule celebrates the art of travel and the sun. It’s for women in search of an effortlessly chic summer wardrobe.
An effortless summer wardrobe
In a series of silhouettes, the house revisits the essentials of summer dressing. Halter tops, flowing blouses and coordinating ensembles make up this proposal. Also featured are wide-leg pants, embroidered linen pieces and lightweight dresses.
“A summery ode that we rush to buy on the luxury e-shop, like a fashion statement that instantly captures the zeitgeist.
The range is completed by a selection of swimwear, bikinis and shorts. These pieces reinforce the vacation spirit of the collection. They make a natural transition from the beach to long summer evenings.
Archival prints revisited in a sunny palette
The motifs in this collection draw on the house’s archives. They are reinterpreted in a sunny palette of vibrant hues. There’s coral, deep chocolate and sun-washed neutrals.
- Vibrant coral for a touch of radiance
- Deep chocolate for discreet elegance
- Neutral shades washed out by the sun
- Archival prints reinterpreted
- Harmony between heritage and modernity
This approach combines the label’s heritage with a contemporary vision. The motifs are applied to both ready-to-wear and accessories. As a result, each silhouette gains in visual coherence.
The chosen palette evokes Mediterranean landscapes. It recalls the hues of earth, sky and sea at dusk.
A subtle dialogue between past and present
This work on archives illustrates the company’s ability to reinvent itself. Historical codes are present, but never static. The Resort 2026 collection offers a modern interpretation of Valentino’s heritage.
Silhouettes remain fluid and luminous. They adapt to travel desires as well as to moments of relaxation. Modernity shines through in the clean cuts and color combinations.
Valentino Garavani accessories at the heart of the collection
As always with the Roman label, accessories take center stage. The Resort 2026 collection is accompanied by a selection of Valentino Garavani shoes and bags. It includes new versions of the Locò and VSling lines.
These pieces are available in the same patterns and color harmonies as the ready-to-wear range. They perfect every silhouette with controlled consistency. Bags match dresses, ensembles and beachwear.
This attention to detail sets the proposal apart. Accessories are not mere complements. They are an integral part of the collection’s visual identity.
The result captures the essence of contemporary resort dressing. This summer capsule is desirable, sunny and chic. It meets the expectations of fashion lovers looking for a wardrobe designed for vacation.
