Structured Grace by Paul Costelloe for F/W 26-27, London Fashion Week | FashionTV | FTV

Don’t let this pass you by! The powerful new chapter – William Costelloe’s debut as Creative Director for Paul Costelloe at London Fashion Week! The collection opens with impeccable tailoring crafted entirely from 100% Irish wools and tweeds by Magee Fabrics. Hand-crafted sculpted florals formed from the same fabrics – signal a fresh yet familiar beginning. A refined interplay of tailored and fluid fabrics runs throughout: structured coats and corsetry are paired with silk and organza blouses, oversized collars sweep dramatically over the head, and wide pleated trousers bring movement and ease. Tonal dressing in blouses, ties, and colour-on-colour styling enhances the sculptural precision. Knitwear takes centre stage with full cashmere rib and cable looks, large collars, and sculpted shoulders creating strong yet elegant silhouettes. The colour palette is concise and assured: earth-toned tweeds, creams, chocolate and tan browns, building to a striking finale of black and charcoal. The closing looks introduce a new dimension—subtle sequined suits and tuxedos with diamante button details, alongside fluid black and silver jacquard dresses. William Costelloe reflects: “My father will always be my inspiration. Creating beautiful clothes for all women to dream and wear with pride and love. Thank you for all your support.”
