COLLECTION VIII ‘MY DREAMS ARE LOVED’

SOMNIIS | PARIS DEBUT | OCTOBER 2026

Our dreams are loved.

We are beyond excited to present our eighth collection, My Dreams Are Loved, marking the Paris debut of SOMNIIS.

This collection, and our journey to Paris, serves as a testament to the belief that dreams, when nurtured, valued, and consistently pursued, eventually bear fruit. Our Paris debut is a reflection of that conviction—a celebration of perseverance, creativity, and the beauty of seeing a vision come to life.

Presented at the esteemed Hôtel Le Marois in Paris's 8th arrondissement, the venue provided an artistic setting that complemented our vision for the season.

For Collection VIII, we sought to return to the roots of SOMNIIS, drawing inspiration from floral beauty and the art of femininity in its purest expression. Characterized as "Romantic Femininity" by ELLE UK, the collection explores the delicate yet expressive nature of femininity through a softer, more poetic visual language.

Spring-inspired colors, including radiant sun yellow, breathe life into the collection, while lush textures create unexpected contrasts. Laser-etched velour meets leather, fur trousers, and sculptural silhouettes, bringing together softness and structure in a harmonious dialogue. Every garment reflects influences gathered throughout our decade-long creative journey, reimagined through the perspective of who we have become today.

At the heart of My Dreams Are Loved is a deeply personal story. Stanton's dream of presenting a collection in Paris began years ago during a conversation with his father about what they believed was possible. This collection represents a full-circle moment—the realization of a dream once spoken, now brought to life on an international runway.

Floral elements extended from the sleeves of several garments, appearing to take on voices of their own as models moved down the runway. These details became living extensions of the garments, expressing the beauty, movement, and emotion woven into the collection.

In collaboration with Arrem Fragrances, we introduced an additional sensory dimension to the runway experience. Each look was paired with a distinct fragrance, allowing the audience to experience the collection beyond sight. As the models walked, scent became an invisible extension of the garments, reinforcing the beauty and individuality of each design. It was an intimate experience reserved for those in attendance, adding another layer of storytelling to our Paris debut.

My Dreams Are Loved is more than our eighth collection. It is a reflection of ten years of creative exploration, the people who believed in our vision, and the dreams that continued to grow even when their realization seemed distant.

A dream nurtured in love. A vision realized through perseverance. A moment we once imagined, now lived.
