NEW YORK, Sept. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Coach debuted its Spring 2026 collection with a runway show held at New York City's Pier 36 overlooking the East River. A fresh new chapter in Creative Director Stuart Vevers' continued exploration of American style, the collection pushes the house's sensibility into new territory by highlighting crisp, clean finishes, a purity of form, and a thoughtful reflection of the way today's generation are redefining personal style-on the streets of New York City and around the world.

"For Spring, I thought about a delicate balance of polish and shine with grit, a pairing I think of as very New York. And by grit, I mean resilience, and the beauty of how the city comes back to life every morning," says Vevers. "The glamour of the steel and glass made more beautiful by the bleaching sunlight, the patina of time, and the buff and burnish of life in our shared city."

Inspired by the energy and vitality of the streets of New York City, Spring 2026 features a variety of beautifully treated leathers in suede and nappa, some with a soft, waxy finish, and others with loveworn effects and rub-off foil elements, grounded by oversized trousers in repurposed denim and workwear materials, as well as tailored pants and skirts. The palette skews light this season, with a combination of whites, honey browns and tans alongside faded blacks. Contrast comes with soft pastel blues, yellows and greens and pops of metallics.

Outerwear includes elegantly constructed moto jackets, vests, blousons and cropped jackets in suede, nappa, and a group of waxy leathers that are a key message for the collection. Moleskin peacoats add variety of texture, while black moto jackets, created with repurposed leather and crafted with minimal hardware, drive home the house's exploration of stripped back and simplified forms. Layered beneath are washed and sunfaded pocket T-shirts and sleeveless T-shirts that complement the collection's honey-brown tones. Added graphic interest comes from a group of souvenir T-shirts depicting iconic American locales with a special resonance to the world of Coach.

Two groups of knitwear extend the house's exploration of loveworn pieces with a sense of history: a selection of cashmere sweaters with a loved treatment and a group of sweaters featuring animal faces with the charm of children's handknits. Romance comes through in a variety of tulle and organza shift dresses in pastels, white and black-many appliqued with sweet and playful motifs of stars, balloons, hearts and clouds and layered over T-shirt dresses.

This season's bags are defined by simple shapes and the house's Kisslock hardware, most recently seen in the popular Kisslock Frame bag. The Kisslock Barrel Bag features a cylindrical duffel silhouette and a compartment with Kisslock closure and appears in a wide variety of materials, including a pebble leather, suede, metallic foil rub-off and repurposed denim and workwear materials. A new version of the Bleecker Bucket Bag also features a Kisslock compartment, again in suede and pebble leather, as well as a beautiful hand-applied Tamponato finish that showcases gradations of tone in the leather. For the first time, the collection will offer Coach's iconic Tabby bag as a clutch-now designed with a softer silhouette in luxe nappa leather and suede. Several Round Kisslock Pouches in nappa and suede round out the assortment.

The Soho Sneaker continues to lead the house's offerings in footwear, this season reimagined with straps instead of laces, and offered in leather and suede, as well as Dalmatian print and in metallic foil finishes. Several pairs of the Soho also feature leather appliques of hearts, skyscapes and balloons that refer back to the collection's organza dresses. The collection also features thick-soled workwear boots, a very soft, flat derby, and a strappy lace-up flat. Finishing touches include Kisslock neck pouches and a selection of earrings and necklaces inspired by Victorian charms and love tokens, including small articulated envelopes and books, heart-shaped lockets and small coins all adorned with hand-written love notes.

Guests at the show were ushered through a darkened space and into the main presentation area, which was entirely surrounded with sepia canvas scrims depicting the grand facades and open vistas of New York City. Awash in light and stark shadow, the backgrounds presented the models as though they were traversing the streets of the city, part of the continuous parade of urban life.
