This year’s sunny season might’ve only just begun, but the fashion world already has its sights set on next summer. Starting from June 16, the SS27 menswear season officially begins, quickly followed by the Haute Couture shows in the fashion capital of the world. For all the indie catwalks, global megabrands and couture debuts, scroll down for our list of the most important shows happening this month.

SIMONE ROCHA BRINGS MENSWEAR TO PITTI UOMO

Pitti Uomo is up first, and those Italian peacocks are in for a treat as Simone Rocha joins the schedule as Guest Designer. Not only is this Rocha’s first-ever show outside of her London home, but the first time she’s presented a men’s only runway, and what better place to do it than the world’s biggest menswear fair. Joining Rocha in the second guest designer spot will be Comme des Garçons acolyte Noir Kei Ninomiya, while the Copenhagen-based menswear label Sunflower will also be presenting its one-off runway as a special collab between Pitti Uomo and Copenhagen Fashion Week.

THE BOYS ARE BACK AT MILAN FASHION WEEK MEN’S

Milan Fashion Week men’s begins on Friday, June 19, and all the usual suspects are back for SS27. Indie designer Martin Quad kicks things off on day one, while Dolce & Gabbana follows on day two, the first runway show since Stefano Gabbana stepped down as chairman of the brand earlier this year. On Saturday, former LVMH Prize winner Satoshi Kuwata brings his label Setchu to proceedings, and Simon Cracker follows up last season’s debut with a sophomore show for the sustainable upcycling brand.

As always, all eyes will be on Prada this summer, after last season’s show set the internet ablaze with its stained shirts and disintegrating jackets. Saul Nash continues to make Milan his permanent home with his fourth consecutive show in the city, while Thom Browne makes his highly anticipated MFW debut on Monday afternoon.

SAINT LAURENT RETURNS FOR PARIS FASHION WEEK MEN’S

The main headline you need to know for PFW men’s is that Saint Laurent is back on the official schedule. For years now, Anthony Vaccarello has waited until Couture Week to stage his seasonal men’s show (allegedly because more A-list stars are in town then), but the Belgian designer has clearly missed being in the menswear fray. Also showing on the first day of PFW men’s will be Pharrell’s Louis Vuitton as well as the BA show for prestigious fashion school Institut Français de la Mode.

Other big hitters this season include Dior, which returns for Jonathan Anderson’s third menswear show, Michael Rider’s debut men’s catwalk at Celine, plus more from Issey Miyake and Dries Van Noten. Other shows to look forward to include Rick Owens’ latest collection on Thursday afternoon, Willy Chavarria’s return to Paris the following day, plus Kiko Kostadinov’s Saturday morning catwalk. And if all that wasn’t enough, 2025 LVMH Prize winner Soshi Otsuki will make his PFW debut this season, bringing his award-winning slouchy suits to this season’s schedule.

COUTURE WEEK DEBUTS FROM GAULTIER, BALENCIAGA AND STANDING GROUND

Next up is the Haute Couture shows for AW26 (we’re a season behind in the couture world, remember). As always, Schiaparelli begins proceedings bright and early on Monday morning, returning to the schedule after its critically acclaimed exhibition opened at the V&A in London this March. Another returning brand that also got the exhibition treatment this year was Iris Van Herpen, whose own show opened at the Brooklyn Museum in May.

Jonathan Anderson, arguably the busiest designer in fashion, follows up his men’s show with a second Dior couture offering on Monday. Matthieu Blazy also presents his sophomore collection for Chanel on Tuesday, but all eyes will be on Irish designer Michael Stewart, whose Standing Ground label presents its first-ever Haute Couture show. A graduate of London’s Royal College of Art, Stewart has already presented four ready-to-wear collections at London Fashion Week, but July’s couture show is the first major international milestone for the house.

Other big headlines from Couture Week come courtesy of Pierpaolo Piccioli and Duran Lantink, who debut their first couture collections for Balenciaga and Jean Paul Gaultier, respectively, as well as the latest collection from Robert Wun, whose brand is under the microscope after the designer outfitted eight attendees (including Beyoncé) at this year’s Met Gala.
