ARAKII Fall Winter 2026: Livia Nunes Embraces The Distance

With Livia Nunes as the face of its Fall Winter 2026 collection, Stockholm based label ARAKII explores the beauty of stepping back, finding perspective and dressing with intention.

In a culture that rarely slows down, taking a step back can be a statement in itself. For its Fall Winter 2026 collection, The Distance, Swedish fashion label ARAKII explores the space between observation and participation, finding inspiration in the quieter moments of everyday life. Fronted by Livia Nunes, the collection reflects a modern woman who moves through the world on her own terms, confident in her choices and comfortable in her own perspective. The concept begins with a simple thought. Distance allows us to see things differently. The familiar streets of a city become a study in architecture and movement, strangers become characters in imagined stories, and seemingly ordinary moments take on new meaning. Away from the constant pressure to respond and remain connected, there is room to observe, reflect and discover.

This sense of perspective translates into a wardrobe that balances structure with softness. ARAKII has built its identity around strong tailoring and precise silhouettes, and for the coming season, these signatures meet warm knitwear, romantic fabrics and sculptural outerwear. The contrast feels natural rather than forced, creating pieces that are considered in their construction yet relaxed in their attitude. Silhouette remains central to the brand’s approach to design. Each piece begins with its shape, with construction and fabric selection following to support the original idea. It is a process that puts design first, allowing materials to enhance the intended form rather than dictate it.

The result is particularly evident in the collection’s knitwear and outerwear. Knitted pieces take on a defined structure, moving beyond their traditional associations with softness and comfort, while coats are made from substantial fabrics that lend weight and presence to the silhouette. Romantic textures bring another dimension to the collection, softening the sharper lines of tailoring and adding a more intimate quality to the overall expression. Throughout, there is a clear understanding of femininity that feels contemporary and assured. Rather than relying on a single aesthetic, ARAKII moves between contrasting moods, allowing strength and delicacy to coexist. The clothes are designed to make an impression through proportion, material and construction, without sacrificing the ease of everyday dressing.

As the face of The Distance, Livia Nunes embodies the collection’s thoughtful approach to modern style. Her presence reinforces the idea of a woman who observes the world around her without being defined by it, finding inspiration in her surroundings while maintaining a distinct sense of self. With Fall Winter 2026, ARAKII offers more than a seasonal wardrobe. The Distance is an invitation to reconsider how we move through the world, and how a change in perspective can influence not only what we see, but how we choose to dress. In a season filled with contrasts, the collection finds its strength in the balance between precision and ease, presence and restraint.
