Backstage at Karoline Vitto Fall/Winter 2026 – Thaw

Karoline Vitto, the London-based womenswear label, has once again taken centre stage at London Fashion Week, unveiling a breathtaking new collection that delicately intertwines body positivity with avant-garde design. With a keen focus on celebrating curves, Vitto’s innovative constructions highlight sculptural silhouettes, metal framing, and impeccable draping, reinforcing the brand’s commitment to inclusivity with sizes ranging from XS to 3XL.

Photographer Anna Nowalska-Duda was granted exclusive backstage access for us, capturing the electric atmosphere as Vitto showcased her vision. Highlighting the glamour of the runway, the designer reveals that her fall collection features only two top styles, each sophisticatedly reinterpreting Y2K aesthetics with low-riding trousers, spaghetti tops, and daring midriffs.

One standout piece transcends traditional styling, capable of transforming into a halter-neck blouse, a sleeveless high-neck adorned with a long lavallière, or morphing into several one-shoulder asymmetric looks. It’s a testament to Vitto’s philosophy of working smarter, not harder, when it comes to construction.

“I just think there’s so much that can come from cut in terms of design,” she shares, embodying her passion as a devoted pattern cutter. “Cut is just pretty informed by the actual body that goes in there — change the body, you change the cut, and that’s really the most exciting.” Within this dynamic framework, Karoline Vitto continues to push the boundaries of contemporary fashion, merging technical expertise with bold, body-centric sensuality.
