COS Rings in the Lunar New Year 2026 with a Minimalist Luxury Capsule

Giddy-up.

Few symbols capture a sense of forward momentum quite like this year’s equine zodiac. And for 2026, COS Spring Festival collection draws on that enduring vitality. Designed to reflect the shared movement and renewal of the season—with the brand’s prominent simplicity—the collection brings a fresh perspective to seasonal dressing through fluid design, expressive details and a wearable sensibility.

Hand-drawn horse motifs are expressed through flowing, linear compositions on silk scarves, cotton accessories and wool layers. The designs embody rhythm and motion, where each detail feels integrated and well-considered—adding character while remaining true to COS’s clean design language. Tailoring and fit play an equally important role in the collection: relaxed yet purposeful cuts ensure that garments follow the body’s natural lines, while soft textures—from merino wool to chenille—invite a springtime tenderness. Together, these elements create a collection where visual interest and comfort coexist, giving each piece a presence that feels effortlessly modern.

For those long lunches, family gatherings and moments sitting between them, the collection centres on clothes that feel natural to wear in our daily lives. Relaxed silhouettes form the foundation, where cut and fabric do most of the work as opposed to bold patterns, allowing the wearer to remain at the centre. Then, versatile sets and pieces for layering make styling straightforward—whether worn together or worked into an existing closet. 

Light and colour spill across the season’s wardrobe through festive tones, grounded by approachable neutrals. Nodding to tradition while staying thoroughly modern, rich red knits take centre stage in the collection, and the softer hues offer a calm to balance the palette. 

Whether the year ahead finds you holding onto familiar traditions or starting new ones, the collection turns the energy of the Spring Festival into a feeling that’ll last. Soft textures, flowing shapes and pops of colour create a wardrobe that moves with you and feels alive in everyday life.
