The Attico Woman Knows Exactly What She Wants
Here’s your exclusive, backstage look at the brand’s SS26 collection, dubbed “Lei è così.”
The Attico brought a powerful vision to Milan Fashion Week with its Spring/Summer 2026 collection titled “Lei è così.” Founders and creative directors Gilda Ambrosio and Giorgia Tordini leaned into the contradictions that have long defined the brand, crafting a wardrobe that is both polished and unpredictable. The showcase, attended by Ice Spice, Sami Miro and Sevdaliza, tributes women that own their craft and look good doing it.
Trench coats arrived with elongated silhouettes, their sharp tailoring softened by lace trims and undone details. Collars layered upon collars, pulling the eye upward while cinched waists scooped at the back to reveal flashes of lingerie. Masculine tailoring and feminine sensuality played off one another, with looks switching back and worth between work attire and bedroom attire. The accessories carried just as much weight, with towering cork wedges balanced on stiletto heels and the debut of the La Passeggiata Mini, a shrunken version of the house’s signature handbag available immediately in seven variations.

What stood out most, though, was the philosophy at the heart of the collection. “Lei è così” speaks to the impossibility of defining a woman, of trying to confine her to a single idea. The brand shares in the press notes: “When one, in Italian, says ‘lei è così,’ one does not mean ‘she is like that.’ Rather, one confesses defeat in trying to define, contain or direct her. That one power which is resolutely feminine is the ability to avoid classification and be memorable because of that.”
In short, The Attico woman is instinctive, magnetic and indomitable. She enters a room without demanding attention yet always commands it. This season, The Attico crystallized her power with striking clarity.
