Charlie Constantinou Explores New Silhouettes and Darker Tones for SS26

Since graduating from Central Saint Martins in 2022, Charlie Constantinou has been creating a unique style that blends futuristic and natural designs with practical, outdoor-inspired clothing and London street fashion. He’s always pushing the boundaries of functional clothing, imagining how it could look in the future, and his newest collection continues that exploration.

Constantinou presented his Spring/Summer 2026 collection at London Fashion Week as part of the NEWgen showcase. The collection builds on his reputation for combining cutting-edge technology with striking designs. This season, the brand showed noticeable development with fresh shapes, a moodier color palette, and a greater emphasis on clothing for women.

The collection featured softer, more elegant pieces like a fitted jersey dress, a linen bomber jacket with multiple pockets, and nylon trousers paired with a removable silver skirt.

The color scheme also evolved for the new collection. While color has always been important to Constantinou’s designs, the SS26 season moved away from bright, neon shades and embraced deeper, more subtle tones like charcoal greys, faded reds, and natural browns. These were punctuated with pops of green, purple, and light blue. The show ended with models walking in groups coordinated by color, demonstrating how color remains a key element of the brand’s look.

Even with this new creative path, Constantinou continued to emphasize the technology-focused innovation he’s known for. His unique expandable quilting – a technique that lets clothes adjust to fit the wearer – was featured on many accessories. Other customizable pieces, like skirts and pants that can be detached, highlighted the brand’s commitment to versatile and adaptable designs.

Working with Demon Footwear allowed us to create shoes that are both protective and adaptable, designed to handle changing conditions and keep you moving.
