More about the collection:

Phan Huy made his official haute couture debut on July 9, 2025 at the Palais de Tokyo, weaving the soul of Vietnam into the revered fabric of Paris Fashion Week. The Fall-Winter 2025-2026 collection did not seek spectacle or grandeur. Instead, it arrived with reverence - a meditation on identity, land and legacy. Not a debut of ambition, but of becoming.

Phan Huy’s Fall 2025 Couture collection is a poetic exploration of the Vietnamese countryside, brought to life through 36 meticulously crafted looks. Designer Phan Nguyễn Nguyên Huy channels his childhood memories - from sunbaked soil to bamboo rustling and rivers weaving through rice fields - into garments that blend tradition with couture innovation.

Each piece reflects the rhythms and textures of rural life, transforming family photographs and folk rhymes into delicate embroidery, layered fabrics and subtle details. The collection honors the quiet beauty and soul of Vietnam’s landscapes, while pushing the boundaries of couture with technical mastery and ethereal silhouettes. This collection is more than fashion - it’s a heartfelt tribute to identity, memory and national pride, presenting a fresh Vietnamese narrative on the global stage of Paris Couture Week.
