For pre-fall 2026, the Rag & Bone team had prep on the brain. Kyle Sweeney, the Senior VP of Menswear, explained that they were focused on the “evolution of traditional American Ivy wear.” He continued, “we looked at the idea of this urban prep, but in a very sophisticated lens through the eyes of New York City. We focused on the idea of this modern uniform and the fact that every great uniform starts with a great shirt.”
Shirting this season included new details—oxford button-downs came with stamped graphics on the front placket for an edgier and youthful touch while also featuring more relaxed silhouettes. They were paired with boxy shorts with distressed hemlines that could be dressed up or down. This season denim is also more relaxed; the hero fit is the carpenter jean, which comes in ’90s-inspired vintage washes. The monochromatic styling delivered a punch, with lots of double collared looks throughout the collection.
