SELECTED SS26: Effortless and elevated escapism
SS26 Credits: SELECTED For Spring/Summer 2026, SELECTED of Bestseller unveils “The Resort Club,” a collection rooted in the spirit of luxurious, early-‘80s travel. Framing its narrative around sun-drenched backdrops and the golden age of summer escapism, the brand channels a world of lavish garden parties, yachtside lounging, and cosmopolitan dressing. The overarching theme captures the synergy of Nordic minimalism with a retro-glamorous twist, sophisticated, fluid, and always in motion. SS26 Credits: SELECTED Fabric innovation and refined tailoring Hero materials of the season include a standout 100% linen developed in collaboration with heritage Irish mill Baird McNutt, offering premium fabric provenance for relaxed tailoring. Presented in muted browns and greens, these linen suits and overshirts offer versatile styling for summer occasions, from destination weddings to upscale garden events. Complementing this are airy silhouettes in Tencel™ Lyocell, used in fluid shirting, drapey pants, and open-knit cardigans, lending a carefree elegance and signature silky matte finish. SS26 Credits: SELECTED SS26 Credits: SELECTED SELECTED balances between structured and slouchy with silhouettes evolving toward modern relaxed fits, intentionally sidestepping extreme oversizing for longevity. Lightweight outerwear and hybrid layering pieces in technical blends further build a wardrobe geared for transitional dressing and functional flair, made to fit seamlessly into the timeless SELECTED wardrobe. Highlight: The Amour Hotel Capsule Collection A separate to the Spring/Summer 2026 collection is the Hotel Amour capsule, developed with the iconic Parisian boutique hotel co-founded by artist André Saraiva.
