For Fall Winter 2025-2026, Rebecca Hessel Cohen looked to the iconic Doris Duke, infusing LoveShackFancy’s signature whimsy with aristocratic opulence. Set against the grandeur of the Duke Mansion on the Upper East Side, the presentation transported guests into a modern interpretation of the Gilded Age. Models floated down the grand staircase in ethereal partywear, seamlessly blending vintage romance with contemporary allure.

Inspired by Duke’s storied life across decades, the collection explored a rich, makeup-inspired palette of bronzes, mauves, and deep pinks—elevating the brand’s signature hues into a sophisticated seasonal spectrum. Luxurious textures reigned supreme, with Victorian lace, floral appliqués, and hand-sewn sequins lending depth to the dreamy silhouettes.

A moodier sensibility emerged through black lace gowns, burgundy sequins, and brown silk, balancing LoveShackFancy’s feminine aesthetic with an autumnal edge.

Intricate craftsmanship shone throughout, with a breathtaking floral appliqué dress demanding 325 hours of hand-beading. Meanwhile, unexpected touches—suede and corduroy—expanded the brand’s signature repertoire, adding a tactile richness to its signature frothy elegance.

LoveShackFancy’s FW25 collection embodied a refined evolution, proving that romance and rebellion can coexist in the most enchanting way.
