Telma presented its Fall Winter 2025-2026 collection at the TODA Hall & Conference in Tokyo, drawing inspiration from the eerie stillness of an empty city at night.

Designer Terumichi Nakajima found inspiration in the stark contrast between the bustling daytime streets of Omotesando and their deserted, silent state at night. This season, he sought to capture the unsettling atmosphere of a perfectly constructed urban space devoid of human presence.

The collection began with a series of dark, dramatic looks, reflecting the descent into night. Black tailored pieces were accented with silver beading on bras and skirt hems, evoking the twinkling of stars in the night sky.

As the night deepened, the collection transitioned into more ethereal forms, with sculptural skirts reminiscent of layered petticoats.

Plant prints, inspired by Art Nouveau's curvilinear forms, adorned long coats and silk tops. The intentionally unsettling depiction of these twisting plants emphasized the collection's creepy aesthetic.

Evening wear, inspired by the night, featured a striking dress combining river lace and quilting. The intricate river lace featured tiger motifs, adding a touch of strength to the delicate design and showcasing Telma's signature use of Japanese craftsmanship.

Star-studded dresses, adorned with glittering embroidery and prints, added an elegant touch, reflecting the celestial beauty of the night sky.

The Telma Fall Winter 2025-2026 collection captured the unsettling beauty of an empty city at night, blending dark elegance with ethereal silhouettes and intricate details.
