Bernadette's Fall 2026 collection is a fashion lover's dream, pushing the boundaries of ladylike elegance! The Antwerp-based mother-daughter team, Bernadette and Charlotte de Geyter, brought their unique vision to Paris, leaving a lasting impression.
For their third season, they collaborated with Studio Alfons Meyer to create a captivating short film, 'The Hostess'. The film showcases a group of women preparing for a party, each with distinct personalities reflected in the collection's designs. Charlotte de Geyter emphasizes the diversity of their creations, like a duo of white shirts with intricate embroideries, one voluminous and crisp, the other fitted and fluid, catering to different tastes.
The collection boasts an array of floral-inspired pieces. De Geyter's daughter, the younger designer, crafted beautiful prints featuring delphinium flowers on caftans and satin gowns, while hydrangea, rose, and cherry blossom motifs added a touch of whimsy. Embroidered berries and velvet pouches injected a playful element. And let's not forget the footwear! New shoe designs included elevated heels and exquisite hand-embroidered silk pumps.
But here's where it gets cozy and chic! Floral motifs extended to knitwear, with a cozy intarsia sweater layered over a vibrant silk gown, and a khaki cardigan with appliqué embroideries paired with a taffeta skirt. The signature ribbon detail added a playful twist to pink pajamas and velvet dresses, creating a modern take on vintage glamour.
And this is the part most fashion enthusiasts will adore: the gingham silhouettes. With asymmetric shoulders and knitted twists, these pieces pay homage to the past while embracing contemporary style. Bernadette's Fall 2026 collection truly offers something for everyone, sparking conversations about the evolution of ladylike fashion.
