FALL-WINTER 2026 FASHION SHOW IN TASHKENT

BRUNELLO CUCINELLI PRESENTED ITS
FALL-WINTER 2026 COLLECTION IN TASHKENT

ON OCTOBER 1, BRUNELLO CUCINELLI PRESENTED ITS FALL-WINTER 2026 COLLECTION IN TASHKENT AT A SPECIAL EVENT CELEBRATING THE ENCOUNTER BETWEEN ITALIAN CRAFTSMANSHIP AND THE CENTURIES-OLD ARTISANAL CULTURE OF UZBEKISTAN. HOSTED BY CAROLINA CUCINELLI, VICE PRESIDENT AND CO-CREATIVE DIRECTOR OF THE HOUSE, AND ORGANISED BY GLAMOUR AVENUE, A LEADING DESTINATION FOR LUXURY RETAIL IN UZBEKISTAN, THE EVENING TOOK PLACE AT THE HISTORIC ABULKASIM MADRASAH IN THE HEART OF TASHKENT.
THE PRESENTATION MARKED THE HOUSE’S FIRST EVENT OF THIS FORMAT IN CENTRAL ASIA, BRINGING THE WORLD OF SOLOMEO TO UZBEKISTAN FOR A DISTINCTIVE ENCOUNTER BETWEEN TWO CULTURES DEEPLY ROOTED IN CRAFTSMANSHIP.

THE HISTORIC ABULKASIM MADRASAH PROVIDED A MEANINGFUL SETTING FOR A DIALOGUE BETWEEN TWO CULTURES UNITED BY A PROFOUND RESPECT FOR CRAFTSMANSHIP AND THE WORK OF THE HUMAN HAND.

UZBEKISTAN IS HOME TO ONE OF CENTRAL ASIA’S RICHEST AND MOST DIVERSE ARTISANAL TRADITIONS. FOR CENTURIES, KNOWLEDGE AND TECHNIQUES HAVE BEEN PASSED FROM ONE GENERATION OF MASTERS TO THE NEXT, SHAPING A REMARKABLE CULTURE OF CERAMICS, WOOD AND GANCH CARVING, METAL ENGRAVING, GOLD EMBROIDERY, MINIATURE PAINTING, JEWELLERY, CARPET WEAVING AND SILK TEXTILES SUCH AS ATLAS AND ADRAS.
THESE TRADITIONS REMAIN VERY MUCH ALIVE TODAY, PRACTISED, TAUGHT AND REINTERPRETED BY CONTEMPORARY ARTISANS AS AN INTEGRAL PART OF UZBEKISTAN’S CULTURAL IDENTITY.

ABULKASIM MADRASAH EMBODIES THIS CONTINUITY BETWEEN HERITAGE AND CONTEMPORARY LIFE. ITS HISTORIC SPACES ARE HOME TO ARTISANS WORKING IN CERAMICS AND POTTERY, WOOD CARVING, METALWORK, MINIATURE PAINTING AND DECORATIVE ARTS. MORE THAN A HISTORIC LANDMARK, THE MADRASAH REMAINS A LIVING PLACE OF CREATION, WHERE TRADITIONAL SKILLS CONTINUE TO EVOLVE THROUGH THE HANDS OF CONTEMPORARY MASTERS.

THIS MADE IT A NATURAL SETTING FOR BRUNELLO CUCINELLI, A HOUSE WHOSE PHILOSOPHY IS ROOTED IN THE VALUE OF CRAFTSMANSHIP, THE QUALITY OF MATERIALS AND THE PRESERVATION OF ARTISANAL KNOWLEDGE.

THE FALL-WINTER 2026 COLLECTION TELLS A STORY OF NATURE, MEMORY AND TRAVEL. ITS VISION UNFOLDS THROUGH A DIALOGUE BETWEEN TRADITION AND FREEDOM, SARTORIAL REFINEMENT AND NATURAL EASE, FUNCTIONALITY AND ELEGANCE.
THE MEN’S COLLECTION EXPLORES THE FIGURE OF THE CONTEMPORARY EXPLORER. SOFTLY STRUCTURED BLAZERS, DOUBLE-BREASTED COATS AND TROUSERS WITH UTILITY DETAILS BRING FUNCTIONALITY INTO DIALOGUE WITH SARTORIAL REFINEMENT. SHEARLING AND SUEDE EMERGE AS DISTINCTIVE ELEMENTS OF THE SEASON, WHILE TWEEDS AND DONEGAL FABRICS ARE REINTERPRETED IN DEEP HUES AND RICH, THREE-DIMENSIONAL TEXTURES.

THE WOMEN’S COLLECTION DRAWS INSPIRATION FROM THE LANDSCAPES OF THE BRITISH COUNTRYSIDE AND MISTY SETTINGS, BRINGING TOGETHER NATURE, MEMORY AND A CONTEMPORARY PERSPECTIVE.
TAILORING MEETS ROMANTIC INFLUENCES AND DELICATE FINISHES. CHECKS, HOUNDSTOOTH, PRINCE OF WALES AND TARTAN APPEAR ACROSS WOVEN FABRICS, EMBROIDERY, JACQUARD, SILK AND KNITWEAR, CREATING A DIALOGUE BETWEEN TRADITIONAL MOTIFS AND VARIED TEXTURES.

THE COLOUR PALETTE CENTRES ON NEUTRAL AND DEEP HUES, EXPRESSED THROUGH A RICH VARIETY OF SURFACES, FROM TWEED AND BRUSHED FABRICS TO LACE, TRANSPARENT WEAVES AND FLOWING SILKS.
KNITWEAR HOLDS A SPECIAL PLACE IN THE COLLECTION. FINE YARNS BECOME THE FOUNDATION FOR SOPHISTICATED TECHNIQUES AND EXPRESSIVE TEXTURES, MAKING CRAFTSMANSHIP A LANGUAGE IN ITS OWN RIGHT. CASHMERE AND NOBLE NATURAL FIBRES REMAIN CENTRAL, REFLECTING THE HOUSE’S ENDURING ATTENTION TO MATERIAL QUALITY AND ARTISANAL KNOWLEDGE.

The distinction between daywear and eveningwear becomes less defined. TAILORING RETAINS ITS CHARACTER WHILE EMBRACING MORE RELAXED PROPORTIONS AND LIGHTER TEXTURES.
THE RESULT IS A CONTEMPORARY INTERPRETATION OF SOFT TAILORING, IN WHICH ELEGANCE BECOMES A NATURAL PART OF EVERYDAY LIFE.

FOR BRUNELLO CUCINELLI, THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN BEAUTY, CRAFTSMANSHIP AND PLACE HAS ALWAYS BEEN FUNDAMENTAL.

IN SOLOMEO, THE UMBRIAN HAMLET THAT SERVES AS THE SPIRITUAL AND CREATIVE HOME OF THE HOUSE, CRAFTSMANSHIP IS UNDERSTOOD NOT SIMPLY AS A METHOD OF PRODUCTION, BUT AS AN EXPRESSION OF CULTURE, CREATIVITY AND HUMAN KNOWLEDGE. TRADITIONAL SKILLS ARE PRESERVED AND PASSED ON TO NEW GENERATIONS WHILE CONTINUING TO FIND RELEVANCE IN CONTEMPORARY LIFE.

TASHKENT OFFERED A MEANINGFUL COUNTERPART TO THIS PHILOSOPHY. AT ABULKASIM MADRASAH, HERITAGE IS NOT SIMPLY PRESERVED BUT REMAINS ALIVE THROUGH THE WORK OF ARTISANS WHO CONTINUE TO CREATE WITHIN ITS HISTORIC WALLS.

THE PRESENTATION BROUGHT THESE TWO TRADITIONS INTO DIALOGUE — DISTINCT IN GEOGRAPHY YET UNITED BY SHARED VALUES: RESPECT FOR KNOWLEDGE, CRAFTSMANSHIP, BEAUTY AND THE DIGNITY OF HUMAN WORK.
