From the beginning, William Fan played with his rules. After the show of its 10th anniversary in the previous season, which was almost impossible at the top in terms of size and spectacle, this moment came for some holiday time. “It was clear for me from the beginning that I could not answer our final show with another one. I wanted to let everything drown first, calmed down, and take care of the fine details. How the idea of this collection came,” Fan said. Therefore spring 2026 was dedicated to the time of leisure – or, taking more accurately, taking time; Which you needed to find small new details in his familiar silhouette. Bags made of nominated ceramic beads, and unconventional cuts invited a close look. To emphasize the evening lethargy, guests were offered ice cream and encouraged them to send postcards to their loved ones.
The heat of the fan is surprisingly light-with literal and rhetorical-developed plates, hidden smiley faces and fresh colors (by Berlin standards). As he has done in the past, the designer worked with his closest community, including his parents, who usually sit proudly in the front line. “I never knew my parents in the context of holiday because they always did so much work,” he explained. “I found this collection, which is related to nothing, is a beautiful tribute to them, who are now fortunately retired and can finally enjoy their holiday time.” An extended family holiday is now in work.
