What defines the Fall 2026 collection

Fall 2026 reads as a study in texture against shape. The knits are soft (superfine wool, wool and cashmere, silk and cashmere) but cut with the house’s architectural eye: off-shoulder necklines, scalloped edges, compact knits that hold a line. Then come the contrasts. Organza is knitted into a midi dress, a plaid is draped into minis and midis, and calf hair turns up on coats, jackets and boots.

The colour story is earthy: chocolate, fig, everglade green, dark olive, camel, dark charcoal and mushroom melange, with black throughout. Fig is the one to watch. It appears on the new Malvina gown, the Maril midi and on leather.

Knits and knit organza

The knitwear is where Fall 2026 is strongest. The Lavina off-shoulder sweater mixes superfine wool with tencel. Cashmere comes as the Fenwick turtleneck and the Remi cardigan, and the Maple and Sophie knit tops are wool with ten percent cashmere. Compact knits in recycled viscose make the Suki mini, the Genna midi and the new scalloped Kylie cardigan. Our SIMKHAI knitwear guide breaks down every fibre.

Knit organza is the clever idea. The new Maril midi dress takes a crisp, sheer organza and gives it the ease of a knit, so it moves rather than stands away from the body.

Plaid, feathers and outerwear

The Everglade plaid arrives on the new Wells off-shoulder mini and on the Burke draped midi, with an Otter plaid variant. The Virelle plaid jacket repeats the idea in a wool blend. For evening, the Malvina Feather Gown comes in fig and ivory. Outerwear is broad: the new Yara cape jacket, Carrie fringe coats, Allura reversible belted coats, a Cassia shearling jacket and calf hair pieces. See SIMKHAI jackets and coats for the full rail.

The pieces to buy first

1. Malvina Feather Gown in Fig

New on 21 October, the Malvina gown in fig is the evening statement of the season, a feather gown listed as 100% polyester.

2. Maril Knit Organza Midi Dress in Fig

The new Maril midi is knit organza in fig: sheer texture with the ease of a knit.

3. Lavina Off Shoulder Knit Sweater in Chocolate

The new Lavina sweater sits off the shoulder in chocolate superfine wool, tencel and polyester. It is the knit that defines the collection.

4. Kylie Scalloped Compact Knit Cardigan in Dark Ochre Multi

The new Kylie cardigan has a scalloped edge on a compact recycled viscose knit in dark ochre multi.

5. Wells Off-Shoulder Mini Dress in Everglade Plaid

The new Wells mini puts the Everglade plaid on an off-shoulder shape, with a little elastane for fit.

6. Viretta Knit Mini Dress in Black

The new Viretta mini is a black ecovero viscose and recycled nylon knit, a plain dress that layers under every coat here.

7. Yara Wool Cape Jacket in Black

The new Yara jacket is a black wool blend cape, cut to sit over knits.

8. Virelle Plaid Jacket in Grey Multi

The Virelle Plaid Jacket in grey multi is the tailored way to wear the plaid story.

9. Carrie Fringe Coat in Frost

The Carrie Fringe Coat in frost is a wool blend coat finished with fringe, the most distinctive outerwear piece of the season.

How to wear SIMKHAI Fall 2026

  • Wear the Lavina sweater with a compact knit midi skirt for a tonal knit-on-knit look.
  • Put the Wells plaid mini with knee high boots and a black knit for the office.
  • Layer the Yara cape jacket over the Viretta mini; the cape covers the arms without bulk.
  • Save the Malvina gown for black tie, and keep the rest plain. Our fall wedding guest dresses guide has more.
  • Mix fig with chocolate. The two shades sit well together across the collection.

For off-duty ideas see off-the-shoulder sweaters, sweater dresses and cape jackets. When the party season arrives, the SIMKHAI Holiday 2026 edit picks up where this leaves off.

Sizing and care

SIMKHAI cuts dresses in US sizes, and its own chart sets US 00 as a UK 4, so a US 2 is a UK 8 and a US 6 is a UK 12. Tops, knitwear and outerwear run in letters from XS to XL. Most pieces fit true to size; read the fit note on each product page, and see our SIMKHAI size guide for the full table. Most wool and cashmere pieces are best dry cleaned; fold knits rather than hanging them, so the shoulders keep their shape.

Elizabeth Banks wore SIMKHAI pre-fall 2026 at The Miniature Wife premiere, a good preview of where the label was heading. For similar knit-led labels, look at Khaite and Christopher Esber.
