This previous April, at Milan Design Week 2026, onlookers hovered exterior of 10 Corso Como, the place an infinite octopus – paying homage to blow-up pool toys – had stretched its tentacles across the façade of the Carla Sozzani-founded idea retailer.
One of many week’s extra memorable sights, it heralded the arrival of Moncler’s summer season assortment, which runs with the tagline ‘Have a Puffy Summer season’. Certainly, these inflatable animals (in numerous sizes) popped up the world over, from London’s Bond Road retailer to a pop-up in Seoul.
Moncler is making its transfer on summer season
The thought was to speak that, regardless of its synonymy with winter and winter sports activities – it was based to outfit climbers within the Alpine village of Monestier-de-Clermont, France, in 1952 – that Moncler can also be adept at creating summertime apparel, albeit in lighter layers.
Taking the ‘puffiness’ which defines Moncler’s signature quilted and down jackets, the gathering reimagines these protecting layers in new featherweight iterations – whether or not ‘pillowy, multi-dimensional, light-as-air outerwear’ or items designed to be layered (or, in some instances, pre-layered, like one high that offers the phantasm of carrying a T-shirt over a shirt).
As seen within the June 2026 Journey Situation of Wallpaper* – a paean to summertime escapes – photographer David Gomez Maestre and stylist Brillant Nyansago seize the summer season assortment amid the bucolic landscapes of Richmond Park, west London.
