Available now, the collaboration combines experimental design with wearable summer staples
Mango has partnered with New York and Los Angeles-based label Eckhaus Latta on a new capsule collection for Summer 2026, expanding its Mango Collective initiative with a collaboration that blends experimental design with everyday wearability.
Available online and in select stores beginning June 4, the collection draws on the design language established by founders Mike Eckhaus and Zoe Latta since launching their namesake label in 2011. Known for their unconventional material choices, inclusive casting, and approach to clothing grounded in real-world use, the duo brings a distinctly urban perspective to the collaboration.
The collection moves between conceptual dressing and practical functionality, offering a wardrobe built around lightweight fabrics, layered silhouettes, and textured finishes. Denim pieces feature foil treatments, overdye effects, and printed surfaces, while airy knitwear introduces unexpected color combinations and tactile interest. Elsewhere, sheer fabrics and minimalist nineties-inspired cuts create a streamlined aesthetic that places emphasis on construction and materiality.
Aquatic-inspired prints appear throughout the collection, reinforcing a sense of summer ease while adding visual depth to otherwise understated silhouettes. Layering remains central to the design approach, with lightweight apron-inspired pieces and transparent fabrics encouraging individual styling and personal interpretation.
Accessories continue the collection’s exploration of organic form, echoing the asymmetrical lines and fluid shapes found throughout the ready-to-wear offering. The result is a versatile capsule designed to transition across different moments of the season while maintaining a cohesive visual identity.
The collaboration forms part of Mango Collective, an ongoing platform dedicated to highlighting independent designers and niche creative voices that inspire the brand’s community. With Eckhaus Latta, Mango turns to one of American fashion’s most distinctive contemporary labels, translating its experimental sensibility into a collection that balances creativity, practicality, and personal expression.
By focusing on subtle acts of individuality rather than overt statements, the collection underscores Eckhaus Latta’s long-standing belief that everyday dressing can be both functional and quietly subversive.
