The Baltic Fashion Federation, organizers of the Riga Fashion Week, announced the image of the spring RIGA FASHION WEEK, which will take place in mid-April. This season, the model represents a collective image of a woman who freely combines romance and toughness, tradition and avant-garde.
The style was developed by leading Latvian stylist and art director Anatoly Ksenofontov.
"The image was born out of thoughts about how the concept of femininity is transformed today. I was inspired by the aesthetics of the "new era" — the intersection of couture tradition and digital futurism, where the classics are no longer opposed to the experiment, but become its basis," comments Anatoly.
A special place in the image was occupied by a voluminous white dress with an almost wedding mood from the Latvian designer Anna Gulbe - a conscious reference to the archetype of purity and purity. However, in the interpretation of 2026, this is no longer a symbol of naivety, but a clean canvas for self-expression. Поверх — structural corset as a sign of internal support and control over the form. He doesn't limit and disciplines power. The expressive appearance of the model Alice Ontensone strengthened the contrasts of the image.
"The central part of the image was a dress in the color Cloud Dancer, officially recognized as the color of 2026 according to Pantone. And the image itself symbolizes the continuity of fashion, the fact that it exists simultaneously and outside of time, and at this particular moment. It changes constantly, but at the same time it remains recognizable. Always slightly careless, slightly daring, and very free", - adds the famous Latvian photographer Polina Vilyun, photo author of the image.
