Sub Michael Ryderhis creative direction, CELINE presents Fall Winter 2026 menswear as a study in clothing that supports individual style. Rider joined the house in early 2025 and has since been working with CELINE’s elegant, understated codes with a clear focus on the wearer. The collection treats clothes as a tool of presence, rhythm and confidence, with pieces that enter everyday life.
Photographed by Andrea Spotornothe campaign uses black and white images to sharpen this idea. The streets of Paris give the images an immediate, classic feel, while the camera zooms in on specific details. Instead of just relying on the full look, Spotorno focuses attention on an embroidered trouser patch, a charm bracelet, a shoe that reveals a little flash of skin, and the cut of a leather jacket.
Rider described the collection as a place to dress for many days, nights and moments in life. His note invites people to find the best pieces and make them a part of their life, rhythm and style.
Belted cropped leather jackets, high-waisted trousers, calf leather jackets and crocodile-print lambskin shoes give classic menswear shapes a stronger charge. Rider works with traditional materials and established silhouettes and then gives them a precise, current energy. His American background informs the ease of the pieces, while CELINE’s Parisian elegance shapes their restraint and polish.
Leather remains central to the collection. The campaign also focuses on knitwear, high necks, tailoring and accessories. These elements give structure to the wardrobe without making it rigid. The clothes feel refined, direct and personal, with plenty of room for the wearer to define them. Rider spaces feel above decoration, using beautiful fabrics and subtle details to create pieces that feel essential rather than decorative.
Accessories bring a more playful edge to the collection. Leather bracelets with decorative charms, hats, jewelry and shoes add visual cues to otherwise understated looks. The campaign gives CELINE menswear a clear direction for Autumn Winter 2026. It values personality, authenticity and ‘character over suit’. Rider asks the user to drive and the clothes confidently follow.
