On June 20, 2026, the heart of Rome once again beat in rhythm with the world of haute couture as Rome Fashion Days transformed the magnificent Palazzo Brancaccio into an unforgettable stage of elegance, creativity, and international fashion.
Set in one of Rome’s most breathtaking historic palaces, surrounded by timeless architecture, artistic details, and the unique atmosphere of the Eternal City, the event became a celebration of beauty, heritage, and modern couture vision.
GARAMI SIGNATURE
Garami Signature, founded by Emirati designer Hamad Jasem, presented a refined couture collection that brought together UAE heritage and contemporary global elegance. The brand’s vision is rooted in storytelling through fashion, where tradition is not simply preserved, but reimagined through modern silhouettes, luxurious fabrics, and delicate hand-crafted details.
The collection revealed a graceful dialogue between cultural identity and international couture. Fluid shapes, rich textures, and fine embroidery created looks that felt both timeless and forward-looking, reflecting the designer’s personal dedication to authenticity, craftsmanship, and artistic expression.
Through this presentation, Garami Signature introduced a distinctive Emirati voice to the global fashion scene — elegant, emotional, and deeply connected to heritage while confidently embracing the future of couture.
AKEL Couture
AKEL Couture presented DOMINION — a powerful couture collection created for women who define their own world with confidence, elegance, and authority.
The collection explored the language of modern power through architectural silhouettes, sculpted corsetry, sharp tailoring, and fluid yet commanding lines. Rich textures, refined craftsmanship, and meticulous detailing transformed each look into a statement of sovereignty and contemporary femininity.
With DOMINION, AKEL Couture reaffirmed its signature vision: couture as an expression of strength, individuality, and brilliance. AKEL Couture — Born to Shine.
AKEL Couture Kids
AKEL Couture Kids introduced a poetic children’s couture line celebrating the purity, imagination, and natural radiance of childhood. Designed as a sparkling world of miniature couture, the collection brought fairytale elegance to the runway through delicate volume, luminous fabrics, and refined decorative details.
Each look was created to highlight the individuality of every young model — soft, dreamy, and expressive, yet crafted with the precision of true couture. Shimmering textures, graceful silhouettes, and crystal-inspired accents gave the collection a sense of magic and lightness.
With this presentation, AKEL Couture Kids revealed a new vision of children’s fashion: elegant, emotional, and unforgettable — where every child becomes the heroine of her own couture story.
ELSA FAIRY COUTURE
ELSA FAIRY, founded by designer Iryna Mykytiuk, presented FLEUR — a couture collection inspired by the delicate strength of petals and the sculptural beauty of blossoms. Known for handcrafted evening gowns, dramatic silhouettes, and emotional storytelling, the brand transformed floral inspiration into architectural couture statements.
The collection unfolded like a living bouquet: voluminous shapes, layered textures, hand-crafted floral applications, oversized sculptural roses, and luminous shades of lavender, pink, and ethereal blue. Each gown captured the feeling of a bloom in motion — graceful, powerful, and alive.
With FLEUR, Iryna Mykytiuk explored femininity as growth, transformation, and quiet strength. The collection balanced fantasy with structure, softness with precision, and once again highlighted ELSA FAIRY’s signature vision of modern couture — bold, refined, and deeply emotional.
BY VEL
BY VEL, a Ukrainian children’s and teen fashion brand founded by two sisters, presented its signature Secret Garden line — Alice Through the Looking Glass. At the heart of the brand lives the image of a little girl who dreams freely, notices beauty in the smallest details, and expresses her true self without fear.
The collection became a journey into a world of reflections, imagination, and inner freedom, where reality gently merges with fantasy. Airy flowing dresses, unconventional shapes, and sculptural silhouettes created a sense of movement, lightness, and emotional depth.
Reimagining colors from the brand’s earliest collections, BY VEL transformed childhood memories into a contemporary visual language. More than children’s couture, the brand defines its own style — a delicate fusion of tenderness, boldness, play, and authenticity.
THE SWAN
THE SWAN, the luxury couture label by designer Iryna Mykytiuk, presented Sculpted Dreams — a collection dedicated to modern femininity, architectural beauty, and refined elegance. Known for sculptural silhouettes and sophisticated eveningwear, the brand transformed couture craftsmanship into a language of confidence, grace, and self-expression.
The collection featured statement cocktail and evening dresses defined by corseted bodices, voluminous bubble skirts, luminous satin finishes, and intricate crystal embellishments. Soft ivory, pure white, powder blue, and vibrant scarlet tones created a visual dialogue between purity, romance, and bold feminine power.
With Sculpted Dreams, THE SWAN reaffirmed its signature philosophy: couture as wearable art. Each look balanced strength and softness, classical elegance and contemporary design, creating silhouettes made for red carpets, editorial moments, and unforgettable occasions.
Rome Fashion Days is more than a runway show — it is a statement of culture, artistry, and refined fashion. Against the backdrop of Roman history and aristocratic elegance, every collection presented at Palazzo Brancaccio became part of a larger narrative — where fashion meets art, tradition meets innovation, and each designer brings their unique world to life.
“Rome Fashion Days was created to celebrate haute couture through the lens of Rome’s eternal beauty. Our mission is to bring together fashion, culture, and international creativity, offering designers a prestigious platform where their collections can be seen, photographed, published, and remembered.
In Rome, every runway becomes more than a show — it becomes a story.” — Zoriana Semeniuk, President and Fashion Producer of Rome Fashion Days
“We create your unique story in the Eternal City — Rome.”
