As the world eagerly anticipates the fresh trends of the coming season, Riopele is proud to unveil its Spring/Summer 2026 collection. Drawing inspiration from the enigmatic beauty of nature, this collection celebrates the earthy elegance of "Caolino" rock, exploring the myriad tones and textures it embodies. Through thoughtful design and innovative craftsmanship, Riopele continues to redefine the interplay between the natural world and contemporary textiles.
At the heart of our Spring/Summer 2026 collection lies the "Caolino" rock, a material revered for its versatility and subtle beauty. Caolino—known for its delicate, chalky hues ranging from soft whites and warm creams to muted grays and rich terracottas—has inspired a color card that exudes organic sophistication. This palette serves as the foundation for designs that evoke a sense of grounding and timelessness, perfectly complementing the vibrant energy of summer.
The collection also delves into a conceptual dialogue between the wood industry and textiles, two fields that share a profound connection to nature yet differ in their expressive characteristics. This comparison highlights the parallels and contrasts in their capacity to evoke emotions, tell stories, and shape experiences. Textures and Patterns: Much like the intricate grains of wood, Riopele's textiles explore layered patterns and tactile finishes. From smooth, silky weaves reminiscent of polished timber to textured fabrics echoing raw bark, the collection captures the essence of nature's diversity.
Beginning next year, we invite our clients to experience the Spring/Summer 2026 collection firsthand. Through exclusive previews and curated showcases, we will bring the story of "Caolino" and its inspired creations to life. This is more than a collection; it’s an invitation to explore the synergy of nature, art, and innovation.
