A story about a Bhutanese trip for Spring 2026 Mainewear Collection by Uma Wang, “Almost proved to be a Catharic journey for the designer. Presented in the matching boutique of her brand, it was imagined to bridge the gap between those who manufacture clothes and who wear them, dreamed a deep connection between each person’s life experiences. And it touched me deeply at an emotional level, “Wang said. It was a spiritual and physical journey, made of staircase, faces and encounters. I discovered a deep smiles, a culture that was woven into very clothes of daily life, and a huge amount of beauty that is worthy of respect. “
“Bhutan, here and now, teaches us to live in the present. And currently, I found a huge source of inspiration,” Wang said. “The way Bhutani male dress shows a elegance that is not in excess.” With a collection that marks the tenth anniversary of the brand’s Men’swear Line, Wang used the Bhutani tradition as an early point and destination in search of its harmony. The ghat, traditional men’s apparel, is often worn with a T-shirt or a pair of sneakers-because of this, both were new joints this season. Clothing studies began with viewing extraordinary textiles in a museum, then working with Italian weavers and their effects were rebuilt. Silk, linen, and raw cotton (naturally water-gradient) embodied a land to see a land, where nature and culture are interconnected. Pinstrip effects were raw by hand to celebrate human touch; The clothes were cold to enhance the beauty of irregularities; Jacquard Flowers developed the sophisticated character of flora. The textured hand pays tribute to a small discovered area.
Between the vests, utility wearing, skirt-pants and ultra-light shirts inspired by blazers, loose trousers, trenches and outer clothing, the silhouette remained liquid and generous, which were to hug instead of being limited. Color palette – from brown to earth tones, with ivory, and muted green, with deep interruptions – developed colors of Bhutanese landscapes.
