British designer Richard Quinn presented his Fall/Winter 2025-2026 collection during London Fashion Week, transporting the audience to a winter wonderland where he showcased designs that combined refined elegance with the sparkle of old Hollywood.
The show took place at the prestigious Royal Horticultural Halls in London. The setting was a snowy landscape, complete with a house façade bearing the name “Quinn”, wrought iron gates and bright street lamps. As artificial snow fell from the ceiling, the models walked the runway, presenting around 50 nostalgic looks.
Luxurious Elegance Designer Richard Quinn, known for his classic style, was inspired by the great figures of the past and the “New Look” look launched by French designer Christian Dior almost 80 years ago. He mainly opted for monochrome ensembles, with some subtle touches of soft colors like pastel green, pale yellow, as well as bright colors like red. The creations were made with luxurious materials such as silk and velvet, and were adorned with patterns, embroidery and flowers that bloomed on the clothes, reminiscent of the elegance of the 80s.
The dress was the key piece of this collection, with long and dramatic creations, playing on layers, fabrics and details that brought a unique dimension to fashion. The creations emphasized the silhouette, with luxurious touches that emphasized femininity, such as cinched waists and skirts that moved harmoniously with the body. These creations displayed classic touches skillfully combined with contemporary elements that made the clothes more modern and current.
Luxury and Creativity At the end of his show, Quinn presented a series of wedding dresses that cemented his place as one of the most influential bridal fashion designers in the world. He evoked the glitz of old Hollywood and embellishments that offered an aesthetic that was both trendy and contemporary, while preserving the drama that distinguished his designs.
Richard Quinn’s Fall/Winter 2025-2026 show blended luxury and creativity, delivering statement looks that were expressed through sumptuous fabrics and refined details. His designs were rich in aesthetic elements that showcase the designer’s talent for delivering a unique vision of luxury fashion, combining art and fashion in an unmistakable style.
