Introducing

Wright + Doyle FW26

We are delighted to welcome Wright + Doyle to our store for Fall/Winter 2026.

Founded by designer and pattern cutter Izabella “Bella” Doyle and landscape gardener Matt Wright, Wright + Doyle is an interdisciplinary British label shaped by the relationship between clothing, work, objects and the natural world. Its collections begin not with passing trends, but with the realities of everyday life: how a garment moves, what it carries, how it layers and how it becomes more personal through use.

Doyle brings nearly two decades of experience in luxury fashion to the partnership, placing cut, proportion and fabrication at the centre of each design. Wright’s background in gardens and landscape introduces another way of looking—one attentive to utility, changing seasons and the character materials acquire over time. Together, they make clothing intended to be lived in: refined without being precious, practical without sacrificing beauty.

There is a quiet clarity to Wright + Doyle’s clothes. Tailoring is generous enough to move in. Pockets are substantial and purposeful. Familiar forms drawn from workwear, field clothing and traditional outerwear are reconsidered through unexpected proportions and highly developed fabrics.

In an interview, Doyle explained that functionality is essential to beautiful clothing: a design detail should have a genuine purpose rather than merely suggesting one. Historic garments are an important reference precisely because their pockets, fastenings and silhouettes evolved in response to particular activities.

The result is clothing that feels considered from every angle yet remains open to the wearer. Previous collections have included adaptable shirts and dresses whose sleeves can be unbuttoned, wrapped or tied in different ways, as well as generously cut coats made for layering, carrying daily essentials and even cycling. The ingenuity is often subtle; it reveals itself through wear.

Materials are treated with equal care. Wright + Doyle develops exclusive textiles with a small network of Italian and Welsh mills, choosing each fabric in conversation with the form and function of the finished garment. Past examples have included English wool woven with raw indigo cotton, undyed Welsh wool and carefully selected deadstock cloth. These are materials chosen not simply for surface appeal, but for how they soften, shift and develop character over time.

For FW26, Wright + Doyle turns its attention to inheritance. The collection takes inspiration from garments passed from fathers to sons—and from pieces that return from children to their parents. It is a tender premise that treats clothing not as something fixed to a single season, gender or owner, but as an object capable of gathering stories across generations.

That sense of continuity is expressed through fine tailoring and substantial, tactile fabrics. Textured silks sit alongside woven wool-and-cotton twills, while an understated palette of dark cacao, forest-like “wald” green and black gives the collection its earthy depth. A fine striped herringbone moves through textiles woven exclusively for the label, creating pattern through structure rather than ornament.

Elsewhere, washed and shrunken wool brings warmth with an already familiar, lived-in quality. Oxblood shirting introduces a rich note of colour, while walnut leather—described by the brand as “armoured”—is softened visually by delicate bone-coloured cotton edging. Strength and sensitivity, protection and ease: these contrasts give the collection its distinctive tension.

Layering is central to FW26, but the effect is never cumbersome. Tailoring, shirting, wool and leather come together in silhouettes that feel grounded and quietly assured. These are clothes that reward touch and closer attention—the texture of a weave, the fall of a sleeve, the positioning of a pocket or the gentle irregularity created through washing.

Wright + Doyle produces only two collections a year, allowing time for the development of its textiles and designs. Doyle has spoken about resisting growth for its own sake, preferring to work with retailers and customers who share the label’s values. She also applies a demanding test to every piece: Is it needed? Is it loved? Will it still feel meaningful in five or ten years?

That perspective makes Wright + Doyle a natural addition to our store. We are drawn to clothing with a strong point of view and a lasting place in the wardrobe—pieces that can be worn often, styled instinctively and understood more deeply with time.

FW26 invites us to think of clothing as part of a longer story: made for the present, informed by the past and capable of being carried into the future. We look forward to introducing you to the collection in store.
