Sara Stoddinger’s spring 2026 collection was a full love letter for California. Earlier this year, studder lost his childhood house during a wildfire. As a California brand of birth and breed, she wanted her spring 2026 to celebrate everything about Golden State. “It was a tribute to California after the fire,” she said. “I grew up on the Pacific coast, and even though it was disastrous that we lost all these houses and I lost my house and everything, this was a wonderful feeling of energy that is a symbol of the lifestyle of California. There was so much enjoyment in retrospect and it was very easy to make a collection because it was very personal for all of us and allowed us to respect our home.”
Some happiness includes surfing, Stoddinger being a huge surfer and beach lover. Long boards were surf-inspired pieces, including shorts, except the stauddinger was fashionable and trimmed with lace or came into some fun stripes. The crop top rash looked like a guard and adorned with a cute shark ornamentation, and the new bag included leather surfboard clutches. A major point, the designer reported that the bag has real surf wings on the back: she was not playing all around the details.
However, the most valuable aspect of this collection was that the pieces felt both indifferent and fresh. Many pieces you can imagine on a marissa cooper or summer Roberts Oc The world was set in today’s world, which included Yellow Terry Cloth Appr-batch coverup, and humid gold shirts that looked great with a pair of new jeans of studs.
Some standouts of the collection consisted of a silk palm tree printed dress and coat. Against an orange and green background, which faded into a dark naval, a picturesque palm tree was horizon, an indicator that even after the fire, the beauty of California will always be the beauty of California.
