Takara Wong Studios turns up the heat at New York Fashion Week, delivering its Fall/Winter 2026 collection with a gritty attitude.

Another hitter from Up to the Sky Fall/Winter 2026 at New York Fashion Week, Takara Wong Studios, led by Thakorn “Champ” Wannawong, presents a daring collection that channels raw underground rebellion and global subcultural fluency.

With Silently Loud as its guiding motto, the collection balances playful subversion and serious provocation, drifting between the visible and the veiled, a sort of ironic restraint that highlights the friction between the powers-that-be and social outsiders.

The archetypes of rock ‘n’ roll mythology are reimagined with punk vigour through a contemporary lens: the tree-hugging hippy, the renegade cowboy and the wayward romantic – as if they never left the cultural conversation.

Defiance materialises in high-voltage palettes and striking leopard and zebra prints. Patchwork tartan meets faded denim, creating a bold contrast that exhibits a devil-may-care attitude. Jackets hang open, exposing the finer details, sharpened by the models’ lean silhouettes.

Next, the focus shifts from silhouette to surface: the overcoat splices mustard houndstooth with black-and-white check, pulled in by a studded leather belt that keeps the layered look sharp. Amber-tinted sunglasses lend a retro edge, while a red neck scarf draws the eye.

The highlight is the olive satin suit, tailored in a double-breasted cut, with a leopard-print shirt peeking just enough to add that unruly energy. Dark lace-up boots give the outfit weight with a hint of moodiness, commanding yet mischievous.
