Pauline Dujancourt FW26 Women Looks Report

London Fashion Week

Pauline Dujancourt builds FW26 around the visual and structural logic of emergence, using broken eggshell set dressing not as backdrop but as conceptual anchor for a collection that moves from dense, protective darkness toward fragile, translucent light. For buyers, this collection arrives at a moment when the market is actively seeking handcraft-intensive, conversation-starting pieces that hold their own in an era of algorithmic sameness.

Silhouette and Volume

The collection opens with enveloping, body-obscuring coats and gradually strips away to cropped tops and sheer midi silhouettes by its midpoint. Oversized sleeves, gathered waistbands and ballooned skirt hems appear repeatedly, but always anchored by a narrow or cropped counterpoint. Look 2 carries volume in the skirt alone, with the torso left sleek and unadorned. Look 14 returns to the full coat architecture of Look 1, this time in teal, confirming that the cocoon coat is a deliberate signature and not an opener's flourish.
