"SIA ARNIKA introduces OVERTIME, a collection for Fall/Winter 2026, revealed during Berlin Fashion Week. This collection explores the hours following work, where the rigid structures of day-to-day life begin to loosen, transforming the mundane into something vibrant. OVERTIME navigates familiar settings such as office corridors, factory spaces, and village discos, capturing spaces typically characterised by routine and discipline. As the collection progresses, a subtle breakdown of these established systems is evident."
"The materials and construction reflect this evolution. Layering is a central theme, offering garments that both conceal and reveal, designed to adapt to the body's movements. Workwear influences are reinterpreted through sculptural tailoring alongside fluid jersey, mesh, and textured surfaces. The colour palette is industrial at its core, accented by highlights of shine and contrasting elements. The presentation took place in an office-like environment curated by TOR Studio, mirroring a familiar workspace that has been subtly altered."
OVERTIME, presented at Berlin Fashion Week for Fall/Winter 2026, inhabits the hours after work when daily routines loosen and the mundane becomes vibrant. It references office corridors, factory floors, and village discos, tracing a gradual breakdown of disciplined systems into nocturnal modes. Designs shift from traditional uniforms toward structured yet relaxed silhouettes that balance obligation and aspiration. Materials emphasize layering, concealment and reveal, and mobility, blending sculptural tailoring with fluid jersey, mesh, and textured surfaces. An industrial palette is punctuated by shine and contrasts. The presentation staged an altered office environment with fluorescent lighting to evoke passing time and suspended anticipation.
