JW Anderson Unveils ‘Summer Series’ Capsule Collection

JW Anderson has unveiled its new “Summer Series” capsule, bringing bold graphic statements and craft-led design into a focused seasonal drop.

At the centre of the collection is a floral print lifted from the archive of Hawaiian artist and collector Dale Hope. The motif, titled Panini o ka Punahou, appears across a men’s camp-collar shirt and shorts set, as well as a women’s off-shoulder dress, depicting a night-blooming cactus flower that opens at dusk and fades by morning.

Elsewhere, the capsule leans into lightweight eveningwear with draped silhouettes in vivid colour, while knitwear ranges from sheer crocheted dresses inspired by Irish snowdrops to nautical-striped boucle jacquard dresses and cropped sweaters. Vintage ephemera graphics are screen printed throughout, alongside clustered gold and silver star embellishments referencing sticker books.

Accessories and footwear continue the craft focus, with woven loafers, braided flats, and the Leaf Slide sandal featuring vein-like leather detailing. A new Bulb Bag debuts in beaded and raffia crochet versions, while the Loafer Bag returns in a handwoven construction inspired by basket-making. Finishing touches include seasonal charms in crochet and leather, from fruit and vegetable motifs to bluebells and snowdrops.

The campaign is shot by Tanya and Zhenya Posternak and stars actor Milo Callaghan alongside models Bruna Souza and Mauria Caetano.
