To welcome Lunar New Year 2026, numerous fashion houses have unveiled new collections in auspicious shades of red and gold, adorned with the horse motif. These Lunar New Year designs offer a range of styles to wear as you receive blessings and invite prosperity into your life.
Lunar New Year remains one of the most significant celebrations for Chinese communities and Thai-Chinese families alike, marking the beginning of the year according to the traditional lunar calendar. The day brings vibrant festivities, ancestral rites, reunions among relatives and friends, and the gifting of red envelopes as tokens of goodwill and fortune. Dressing for the occasion also plays its part, allowing you to express joy while sharing auspicious energy with those you hold dear.
To make it easier for our readers to find the perfect look, #legend_TH presents a curated edit of Lunar New Year collections from the world’s most iconic brands.
Thom Browne
Thom Browne collaborates with supermodels Xiaowen Ju and Dachuan Jin to welcome 2026 with a collection inspired by the Year of the Horse. The brand interprets the zodiac through intricate embroidery, jacquard fabrics and sculpted leather, all grounded in its signature refined uniform aesthetic. It combines Linton tweed with seamless trims, pairing elegant outerwear and tailored trousers with supple leather jackets and tweed suiting. The result strikes a confident balance between vibrancy and precision. The house also introduces a new animal bag line, including a chestnut-brown horse tote crafted from grain-embossed calfskin and finished with a lifelike mane — a sculptural leather creation that showcases Thom Browne’s exceptional craftsmanship.
Dolce & Gabbana
Dolce & Gabbana retains its unmistakable flair for bold lines, colour and ornamentation in this special collection. The designers weave horse motifs throughout each look, blending Eastern elegance with contemporary Italian style. From pyjamas and shirts to pencil skirts and dresses, the collection features carriage prints, decorative wheels, lemons and florals rendered in the vibrant hues of the house’s signature Carretto Siciliano, set against crisp white and black backdrops.
