Valette Studio presented its Autumn/Winter 2026/2027 collection, The New Romantics, during Paris Fashion Week on January 20, 2026, in Paris, France.
Valette Studio’s Autumn/Winter 2026/2027 Collection “The New Romantics” is born from a contemporary melancholy: that of a fashion world where the image has gradually taken precedence over garment design. The Autumn/Winter 2026/2027 collection proposes a return to the craft and the human touch. It asserts craftsmanship as an emotional language and the garment as the link between the body and the maker, through its materials, colors, and embellishments.
The Materials
Tailoring wools, Wool broadcloth, Wool gauze, Faux fur, Recycled leather, Technical cotton, Cotton voile, Herringbone denim.
The Color Palette
Glossy and powdery black, Powdery white, Electric blue, Fiery red, Evening green, Wine, Terracotta, Indigo blue, Luminous grey.
The Embellishments
3D printing, Embroidery on print, Gouache and watercolor dyeing inspired by the makeup of David Bowie, Mick Jagger, and the 80s.
Manifesto for the Unity of Design and Manufacturing
Valette Studio and Valette Atelier are one. Designing only makes sense if one fully embraces the manufacturing process. Separating the idea from the craft, the designer from the atelier, amounts to producing shapes without responsibility and garments without soul.
A brand that invents garments can also manufacture them. Valette Studio is proof of this. Valette Atelier could not exist without the expertise of an in-house label, capable of understanding a designer’s intentions. Yet Valette Studio could not design without a manufacturing atelier dedicated to other houses.
Giving life to ideas that are not our own is a crucial act. Fashion is not just a product. It is also craftsmanship. Better yet, a way of being. Many brands need to manufacture here, locally. Without machines and without savoir-faire, they go elsewhere.
To design is to commit.
To manufacture is to be in contact with reality,
for an almost sensual experience.

VALETTE STUDIO
https://valettestudio.com | @valettestudio
A firm believer in the evergreen coolness of sharply-cut tailoring, carefully selected fabrics, and impeccable finishes, Pierre-François Valette founded Valette Studio in 2020.
In three seasons, this graduate of the Chambre Syndicale, who also trained with Isabel Marant and the house of Saint Laurent, has come up with an idiosyncratic “casual couture” aesthetic for men and women, peppered with quirky touches, in sync with a new generation constantly migrating between formality and streetwear. At Valette Studio, suits have the comfort of tracksuits, vivid colors and patterns appear unexpectedly, and inventive layerings shed a new light on tailoring.
Each collection explores numerous art and literature references, from Andy Warhol through Albert Camus and David Bowie, legends whose renegade mindset jibes with the spirit of the brand. And although Valette Studio offers ready-to-wear, it functions in a modern “maison de couture” spirit, hence the fastidious crafting of the clothes and its insistence on promoting collective work, symbolized by its inclusive brand name.
