ALÉMAIS RESORT '26 RUNWAY SHOW

Every collection begins with a story.

For Resort 2026, that story unfolds in Marrakech—a city that has long inspired founder and creative director Lesleigh Jermanus.

This season, we collaborated with Laurence Leenaert, artist and founder of Marrakech-based design studio LRNCE. Together, we celebrate a shared love for heritage and craft through a collection that blends tradition with modern expression.

Marrakech, with its sun-faded pinks, vibrant souks, and rich sensory landscape, sets the tone. The city’s contrasts—structured architecture and fluid street life, earthy tones and vivid bursts of colour—inspire the palette and silhouettes.

From utilitarian tailoring to soft, billowing forms, the collection captures the duality of strength and sensuality. It reflects the spirit of Marrakech and the artistry at the heart of Alémais.
