Rooted in the tension between motion and calm, the Autumn/Winter 2025-26 collection ‘IKIGAI’ explores a refined dialogue between geometric precision and fluid minimalism. Inspired by the quiet clarity of Japanese lifestyle and the serene discipline of Zen aesthetics, this collection merges structured silhouettes with effortless grace — capturing both the meditative stillness of tradition and the dynamic pulse of contemporary life.
Echoes of tradition — found in the fluidity of drape and the quiet rhythm of proportion — are interwoven with a contemporary sensibility, forming a thoughtful bridge between East and West, stillness and motion. Architectural cuts and clean lines reflect a deep respect for balance, while subtle references to traditional Asian garments—kimono sleeves, layered wraps, and minimalist closures — are reimagined through a contemporary, sporty lens. A considered palette and modular design system underscore the collection’s quiet strength — offering adaptability without excess, and intention in every detail. Each piece is a quiet study in form and function, designed for a wardrobe that is as contemplative as it is in motion.
The driving force is Ikigai — the Japanese concept of purpose and meaning — which gives this collection its heart. It is the reason we rise each morning: what we love, what we’re good at, what the world needs, and what we offer in return. For us, Parthenis AW25-26 is our Ikigai — our soul made visible. It is not just a name, but a way of living carried through time like a flame in cupped hands: protected, cherished, evolving with devotion.
This is why we design — not just for the eye, but for the spirit. Designed for the modern, mindful wearer, these pieces speak to those who seek clarity, balance, and presence in their everyday wardrobe. With Ikigai, Parthenis invites you to inhabit the in-between: to embrace stillness as movement, simplicity as depth, and to experience clothing not just as form — but as feeling, not just as fashion — but as purpose.
