On November 17, 2025, Costume Institute curator Andrew Bolton and former Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour announced the theme of the 2026 exhibition, as “Costume Art.” According to Bolton, the exhibition is inspired by “the centrality of the dressed body in the museum’s vast collection.” The 2026 Met Gala theme is focused on how central the human body is to the museum’s extensive fashion collection. The show will open the Met’s new permanent wing, and it’s designed to place fashion and art side by side.

Kylie Jenner is not taking a break from fashion anytime soon. After walking down the Victoria’s Secret runway in the brand’s $50 million Fantasy Bra last weekend, the beauty and fashion mogul is back to work on her clothing label, Khy. The brand has announced its latest winter collection, Khy After Dark, which is set to launch on October 27.

Khy After Dark features 16 pieces, including  oversized bomber jackets, sculpted coats, faux-fur details, knitwear and bold animal prints. The designs mix different textures and shapes, with some pieces featuring more than one material.

One of the looks combines a fur jacket with leather sections along the sleeves. The fur appears in separate bands, creating a layered design rather than the usual single, continuous finish. Another piece is a long leather coat with fur around the neckline, hem and cuffs.

Despite its name, Khy After Dark is not limited to evening outings. The campaign also features a hooded knit paired with relaxed jeans and a long-sleeved top styled with shorts. These looks bring a more casual side to the collection, showing how the designs can be worn beyond nights out.

Jenner also stars in the campaign for the new collection, photographed by Quentin de Briey in the hills of Los Angeles. In a press release, she described the woman she had in mind when creating the collection. “The collection is designed for a woman for whom getting dressed is an occasion in itself, and she is always the main character,” she said.

The 2026 Fantasy Bra was created by Jacob Arabo of Jacob & Co. in collaboration with Victoria’s Secret. It features 4,410 natural diamonds surrounding a 75.54-carat radiant-cut yellow diamond. Fifteen artisans spent more than 1,000 hours making the piece. According to Jacob & Co., the design was inspired by its Rare Touch Jewelry Collection, which explores how precious metals can move with the body like fabric. In an Instagram post, he wrote, “What began as a pencil sketch became a masterpiece of jewelry engineering. Crafted from 3,218 individually designed components, the creation moves with the body like lingerie, combining brilliance of high jewelry with fluidity of fashion.”

Speaking to Vogue, Victoria’s Secret chief creative officer Adam Selman explained why the brand chose Jenner to wear the Fantasy Bra. “Kylie really extends beyond fashion, beyond culture, beyond TV, beyond one singular thing,” he said. “The show is so big, it’s true entertainment, and I think she is a great catalyst for that.”

Jenner had appeared in fashion shows before her Victoria’s Secret appearance. She first walked the runway in 2011 for Abbey Dawn. In 2013, she appeared in designer Sherri Hill’s show and joined her sister Kendall Jenner for The Heart Truth Red Dress Collection. More recently, she closed Coperni’s Spring/Summer 2025 show at Disneyland Paris in October 2024.

Seán McGirr is leaving Alexander McQueen after three years as creative director, the fashion house announced on October 15. The Irish designer’s departure comes less than a month after he presented his Spring/Summer 2027 collection in London, marking the brand’s return to London Fashion Week after years of showing in Paris. Kering, the luxury group that owns the label, said it would announce new creative leadership soon.

McGirr joined Alexander McQueen in October 2023, succeeding Sarah Burton, who spent 26 years at the house, including 13 as creative director. Burton took over the role following the death of founder Lee Alexander McQueen in 2010. Her departure in 2023 opened the door for McGirr, whose appointment brought a new designer to a label closely associated with its founder’s unconventional runway shows and distinctive tailoring.

Before joining McQueen, McGirr served as head of ready-to-wear at JW Anderson. His previous experience also included positions at Dries Van Noten, Burberry and Uniqlo. A graduate of Central Saint Martins in London, he entered the role with a background spanning established luxury houses and more accessible fashion retail.

His first collection for Alexander McQueen, presented in Paris in 2024, received mixed reviews. The designs included exaggerated knitwear, shearling jackets and embellished trouser suits, signaling a different approach from Burton’s collections. Critics questioned whether his early work had established a clear direction for the house, whose identity remains closely linked to the late designer’s work.

McGirr continued to explore the brand’s established references while introducing his own ideas. His tenure included the return of recognizable McQueen motifs and an emphasis on unconventional styling. However, his collections continued to attract debate over how the house could evolve while retaining the identity that made it one of Britain’s best-known fashion labels.

His final collection, for Spring/Summer 2027, was presented in London on September 20. The show took place at Lincoln’s Inn Chapel and included sculptural tailoring, leather harnesses, metallic details and gowns. It marked a major change in the house’s runway schedule, returning McQueen to London Fashion Week for the first time in more than two decades.

McGirr’s departure comes as parent company Kering reassesses Alexander McQueen’s business. The group has been working to address challenges across its luxury portfolio, while reporting on the fashion house has highlighted restructuring and efforts to refocus its operations. Kering has not publicly detailed a specific reason for McGirr’s exit, and no successor had been announced at the time of the departure statement.

In its announcement, Kering CEO Luca de Meo thanked McGirr for his contribution and said the group intended to establish a new direction for the house. Alexander McQueen CEO Gianfranco D’Attis also acknowledged the designer’s work and his role in reconnecting the brand with London and its creative community.

McGirr’s next move has not been announced. The fashion industry will now be watching for Kering’s choice of successor and the direction the next creative director takes at Alexander McQueen.
