Adrian Appiolaza’s Spring 2026 outing for Moschino might just be his most engaging yet. For the first time, there was a bit of edge and personality on the runway, the kind of playful irreverence the brand has always thrived on. Not everything landed, but there were enough flashes of wit and intent to make me hopeful he’s finding his stride.

Drawing inspiration from Arte Povera, the late ’60s Italian art movement that celebrated making much with little, Appiolaza leaned into the ordinary and the overlooked. Potato sacks became skirts, burlap transformed into dresses, deadstock swatches reworked into trenches. A patchwork sensibility ran throughout, often collaging fabrics in a way that felt both raw and deliberate. At times, the spirit of Franco Moschino himself hovered close by—particularly in the revival of the cheeky “Niente” T-shirt and newspaper prints reimagined with optimistic headlines.

But the accessories stole the spotlight; I loved every bag. A saucepan turned into a bag, apples wrapped in plastic became a clutch, and a balloon dog appeared as a brooch. Even toilet brushes found their way into footwear. It was funny, absurd, but also timely.

This collection didn’t resolve every question about Appiolaza’s vision for the house, but it showed promise. If Moschino is to truly be “back,” this felt like the first real step toward it.
