For Songzio’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection, POLYPTYCH, the brand built and deconstructed sculptural forms, through creating a wearable exploration of contrast between absence and presence, past and future. Inspired by the chaos of contrast, Songzio dismantled the architecture of traditional garments, by cutting them into pieces and reassembling them into asymmetrical creations. With cutouts, volumed pieces and a lot of movement as each look came down the runway, garments fell from the body like architectural ghosts, floating with ease and grace. Furthermore, the downtempo techno mirrored the boldness in the idea of being nonconforming, influenced by the traditional Korean art theory that states negative space is not absence but presence. The brand reinterpreted the Korean hanbok and Western armor with sliced, torn and recontextualized layers in the collection.

The materials presented by Songzio made sure shine never missed, as looks used metallic glitter, glossy leather and holographic vinyl. Through the primitive and deep earth tones as a foundation, the collection is subdued yet fearless by balancing natural fabrics such as organic and cotton wool with futuristic elements that glitched intensively. Textures embraced contradiction, reinforcing a discourse between soft and rigid, matte and reflective, past and future. This dynamic provided a space where the collection felt both ancestral while being ahead of its time, creating a new world, the Songzio world. By doing so, POLYPTYCH, did more than reference cultural history; it distorted and created a presentation that was haunting, sculptural and otherworldly.
