In the Details: Andrew Curwen’s AW26 Collection

In this episode, we get an up-close look at Andrew Curwen’s collection beyond the runway and into the details that often go unnoticed. We talk construction, garment engineering, and the small decisions that quietly define great design: from salt-spray finishes and bodice shaping to lining construction, corset boning, and how to make something look beautifully worn without losing integrity.

What stood out most was Andrew’s depth of thought and attention to detail. Every piece felt intentional — not just in how it looked, but in how it was built, how it moves, and how it lives on the body. This conversation was a reminder that real craft lives in the details, and that wearability and artistry don’t have to be at odds.

I genuinely loved being at this show and experiencing the collection in person. I’m incredibly grateful to have had a small window into Andrew Curwen’s world and process — it’s the kind of work and level of care that I truly aspire to.
