2026 Spring/Summer Collection “Outlines”

The design team behind divka aims at creating new and beautiful clothing which have the power to inspire and move people.

One of the defining characteristics of divka’s design process is draping. Through draping, we can directly and boldly express sensory elements, giving our garments dynamic silhouettes and a sense of movement.

For this collection, titled “Outlines”, our goal was to create new clothing—specifically new silhouettes—through experimental approaches to draping that deviate from conventional standards.

At the core of our concept lies the idea of pre-shaping the muslin before applying it to the body form. This shaping was carried out without assuming the body’s form—through folding the muslin along arbitrary lines, using the fabric’s own weight, cutting into it, or sewing together cutout pieces in unexpected ways to form three-dimensional structures.

When these pre-shaped muslins were placed on the body form, they naturally revealed fabric movements and falls that could never emerge through standard draping. We positioned such unusual and unforeseen states of fabric as our starting point, and from there, began developing our designs.

Attempting to create garments that clothe the body from forms conceived without any reference to it led us to connect unexpected points and lines. As a result, we discovered constructions where the garment’s inside and outside were reversed, or silhouettes that emerged by eliminating conventional seam lines altogether.

Through this process, we sought to expand the possibilities of draping by altering standard methods. In doing so, we surpassed familiar divka designs and generated a wealth of new silhouettes.

Divka’s mission is to create clothing that no one has ever seen before, not even us.
