The core inspiration for Zimmermann's 2026 quarter comes from a bohemian artist community in Lavender Bay, Sydney in the 1970s. Designer Nicky Zimmermann was moved by the vibrant creative energy there. This free and unrestrained atmosphere full of self-expression spirit has become the emotional foundation of this series.

The brand's previously released 2026 early spring vacation series is themed around "Twisted Romance," drawing inspiration from pirate legends and adventurous spirit. This continuous exploration of romanticism and adventurous spirit also forms an interesting resonance with the spring/summer collection.

In terms of specific design presentation, Zimmermann cleverly blends softness and strength this season.

The twisted floral print carries a psychedelic and nostalgic tone, and is attached to the clothing through superb craftsmanship. For example, the sheer organza dress is decorated with a dense diagonal fabric layer called "super fluff" by the brand, and lined with a stiff skirt support, making the flowers appear to bloom in three dimensions on the skirt.

Sharp cut bell bottoms, balloon sleeve jackets, and jackets with wavy layered skirts. The strapless parachute dress and bubble skirt inject a sense of lightness into this season.

The brand's iconic flowing chiffon and crisp nautical stripes create a dramatic dialogue. Denim, as an increasingly important category for the brand, has emerged this season with sharp cuts and gemstone tones, showcasing the professional skills of its Paris studio.

The grand show was held at the brand's new headquarters located in the Marais district of Paris. The professional skills of the Paris team in denim, knitting, and outerwear categories have injected more sophisticated tailoring and structure into the brand's signature romantic design.

From this show, we can clearly see that Zimmermann is moving towards a more comprehensive and international mature brand. From iconic romantic dresses and colorful prints, it has evolved into a comprehensive lifestyle brand offering year-round clothing. The series includes a variety of items such as sleek white hollowed out shirts, earthy toned swimsuits worn as tops, and chic leather windbreakers.
