Wales Bonner ‘Morning Raga’: vital calm as modernist ritual

For Autumn Winter 2026, the ‘Morning Raga’ lookbook unfolds at dawn, where dress becomes a quiet exercise in balance, rhythm and restraint.

The images move slowly, suspended between night and day. Calm, focus and tactility define a wardrobe shaped by inner discipline rather than spectacle. This atmosphere frames the Autumn Winter 2026 lookbook by Wales Bonner, titled ‘Morning Raga’, conceived as a meditation on harmony inspired by Indian classical music.

Shot in London by Malick Bodian, the lookbook channels the human modernism of Balkrishna Doshi, treating clothes as intimate structures rather than statements. Uniform silhouettes are softened through silk, wool and satin gestures: polo shirts crossed by ceremonial sashes, controlled colour blocking in ivory and Atlantic blue, and outerwear defined by subtle grid patterns.

Across menswear and womenswear, the collection privileges ease, concentration and flow. Sound, architecture and tailoring merge into a shared language of restraint, where modernism appears not as style, but as state of mind. ‘Morning Raga’ captures that fleeting moment when clarity emerges and everything feels briefly aligned.
