This season, JS Culturatook center stage with a breathtaking solo show that embodied the spirit of Indonesia’s diverse cultural identity while reinterpreting it for the modern world.
A Tribute to Indonesia’s Heritage
JS Cultura’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection served as a poetic tribute to Indonesia’s heritage — a vivid dialogue between tradition and innovation. The designer drew inspiration from the country’s rich tapestry of cultures, weaving together elements from Papua, Sumba, Dayak, and Javanese traditions.
Through a masterful use of textiles, intricate detailing, and ornamentation rooted in Indonesian craftsmanship, each look told a story of origin, pride, and evolution. Flowing silhouettes met structured tailoring; natural tones were juxtaposed with bold, cultural motifs; and contemporary cuts carried traces of ancestral artistry.
What emerged was a narrative that celebrated not only beauty but also meaning — a testament to how heritage can coexist with modernity on the global runway. The audience responded with heartfelt admiration, recognizing the depth and authenticity of JS Cultura’s creative vision.

A Celebration Beyond the Runway
The night concluded with an exclusive Cocktail After Party, sponsored by One Vision, whose founder Dreyfus Louyebo attended as a VIP guest.

In an atmosphere of elegance and excitement, conversations flowed around new collaborations, cultural exchange, and the bright future of fashion driven by diverse voices.
Looking Ahead
As Fashion Forward® closes its first decade, the message from Paris was clear: fashion is not only about what we wear — it is about who we are, where we come from, and how we choose to tell our stories. The Spring/Summer 2026 showcase encapsulated this vision perfectly, with JS Cultura standing as a proud representative of Indonesia’s creative power on the world stage.
With such a powerful start to its second decade, Fashion Forward® continues to redefine global fashion narratives — connecting heritage with innovation, and tradition with tomorrow.
