The collection blends tradition and innovation, resulting in pieces that are luxurious yet still wearable.
Ferragamo continues to master the art of combining the timeless with the new, the effortlessly simple and modernly modish, with its latest Pre-Fall collection, which was unveiled on Dec. 11, 2025. This season, creative director Maximilian Davis anchored the lineup on the cinematic romance of 1920s Hollywood and the ease of Italian Caribbean living.
Davis channeled Hollywood’s Golden Age in bouclé fabrics and draped dresses that were rendered with minimalism but looks distinctly current. They are effortlessly elegant in lightweight wool and knotted by leather details.
There were also easy-breezy knits, relaxed pleated pants, and low-slung pencil skirts, and softly gathered shapes that highlight the designer’s commitment both to classicism and comfort. Shirts were reinvented as dresses, with some appearing as an undersuit.

Cotton is employed in many forms, while natural fabrics introduce an organic finish, combining tradition and innovation to make every piece luxurious yet still wearable. Other than the pieces that bring to life Ferragamo’s iconic elegance with a modern attitude, the collection featured standouts like a printed cady separates, a military suede safari jacket, as well as a reversible shearling jacket and supple trench coat that bare both quietly luxe in dense burgundy.
The ocean, a powerful symbol of connection among continents, cultures, and eras, adds flair to the collection that has subtle sailor codes running all throughout. Nautical stripes and maritime motifs surface across silk scarf dresses to patterned knitwear. These pieces carry the elongated silhouette of the 1920s, refreshed with the lightness and movement that define a luxurious, modern-day wardrobe.
Details such as metallic Ganichi hardware, knotted fastenings, horn buttons, and metal boating eyelets nod to the sartorial style of sailors. Degrade prints resemble the markings of water on the shoreline and the limitless horizon, reinforcing the collection’s fluidity and boundary-crossing concept.

Davis infused warmth and optimism to the collection through its vibrant color palette and bold color-blocking inspired by Caribbean landscapes. It is balanced by more muted, earthy tones to emphasize its versatility that could transcend seasons.
Ferragamo’s core business, the accessories department, was given new life and vitality with house staples that Davis interpreted with a modern twist. This includes the Hug and double Gancini flag bags that were stretched into elongated east-west proportions, as well as the Soft Hug that now appears in crossgrain. He also introduced big tote bags that can fit anything and any lifestyle.
Ferragamo’s Pre-Fall 2026 collection also introduces a new crossgrain ballerina shoe, featuring the iconic Vera bow. Loafers, sandals, and mules are crafted from gathered leather fastened by a Ganicni, while satin pumps with sculptural “S” heals are glamorized with Art Deco-inspired jewelry. Meanwhile, the house’s signature pointed-toe slingback are reimagined in crocodile, olive green, and deep brown.
The Ferragamo Pre-Fall 2026 collection is expected to arrive in stores and become available for purchase online around May or June 2026.
