VAQUERA

Being Both Perfect and in Shambles

Let go of preconceived notions about the future. Vaquera, which has long showcased the transformative power inherent in clothing—the very foundation of the brand—is now embarking on a transformation of its own for FW26.
“Hold on tightly, then let go lightly.”
This season presents a unique atmosphere where perfection and chaos coexist. A distorted take on Mod, a twisted take on Madame, and an abstracted Leather Daddy. From the runway lined with characters that appear unbalanced at first glance, a single question emerges.
Can clothing be complete even if the heart remains in disarray?
What we may need from now on is not neatly arranged clothing for the future, but a single garment that embraces the imperfect “now.”

[About the Brand]
VAQUERA is a brand founded in New York in 2013 by Patrick DiCaprio, Bryn Taubensy, and others. Describing their work as “fashion fan fiction,” they create garments that sublimate the DIY spirit and pop culture into something rebellious and surreal.

The Spring/Summer 2026 collection embodies the philosophy of bringing joy to oneself and others through fashion in these chaotic times. Drawing inspiration from the brand’s early theatricality and excitement, the collection is both nostalgic and forward-looking.
