LANDEROS Fall 2026

For those not familiar with LANDEROS, this is a brand that combines the two elements needed for success in the fashion industry, now and next. As the great fashion publicist Diana Vreeland proclaimed, “fashion should be now and next.” And LANDEROS’ creative director Andre Landeros Michel does just that!!

Fashion Reverie became familiar with this brand at New York Men’s Day a few years ago. And though we were impressed by LANDEROS’ presentation at New York Men’s Day, this current outing demonstrates how much the design aesthetic of the brand has grown, but also the craft that Andre Landeros Michel has injected into this fall 2026 collection.

This ‘Heretics’ collection, though dark and haunting, exhibits Michel adept skill, particularly with the traditional suit. Suits in this collection are embellished with boxy shoulders and statement sleeves, as well as belts that cinched in waist. These suits also highlighted the feminine form by being manipulated to show off hourglass figures.

Andre Landeros Michel also played with masculine and feminine silhouettes evidenced in the traditional suits. These suits, though not unisex, could be wore successfully by both male and female consumers. Additionally, Andre Landeros Michel’s use of sheer and diaphanous fabrics brought that extra next to this fall 2026 collection. Sensuous and bold, these sheer fabric touches never pushed the collection into the salacious realm.

In this outing Michel chose a rich color palette of black, blue, and gold with touches of animal print, were the focus of this season. Michel also selected the right models for this collection and aptly showed off the garments with style and panache.

Hopefully, Andre Landeros Michel will stay the course and stay on track in the fashion industry because he has something very important to say. The fashion industry needs you!!
