SIA ARNIKA FW26
SIA ARNIKA’s Autumn Winter 2026 collection, titled OVERTIME, captures the charged space that exists after routine ends and something looser begins. Set between office corridors, factory floors, and village dance halls, the collection reflects environments shaped by discipline that slowly shift into spaces of release. These familiar systems soften at night, and the clothes follow the same logic.
Uniforms appear composed yet imperfect, structured but slightly undone. The collection lives in the in-between, where control meets surrender. Workwear codes are reworked through fluid jersey, mesh, and tactile fabrics, turning rigid references into expressive forms. Layering becomes essential, concealing and revealing the body at once. Garments cling, stretch, compress, and reshape the silhouette, creating constant movement and tension.
The palette remains industrial and grounded, echoing factory tones, interrupted by moments of shine and friction that add energy. Presented in an office-like setting by TOR Studio, under fluorescent light and a soundscape by EUROPA, the show felt suspended in time, as if the workday had ended but the night had not yet begun. With OVERTIME, SIA ARNIKA frames clothing as a space of transition, release, and emotional freedom.
