What does childhood feel like?
Maybe it feels like running down a cobblestone street with no particular destination. Like the cold on your cheeks, a favourite sweater pulled up to your chin, or the comfort of coming home after a long afternoon outside.
For Autumn/Winter 2026, minimalisma turns these little sensations into The Embrace Collection: a celebration of familiarity, belonging and the simple pleasures of being a child.
We’ve been following minimalisma for years, and there’s a reason we keep coming back. The brand has that rare ability to make simplicity feel special. Its beautiful natural fabrics are always at the heart of it, with luxurious cable-knit wool, soft bouclé and seamless ribs bringing warmth, texture and comfort to the collection.
This season, the inspiration comes from Copenhagen: colourful streets, historic walls, bicycles, winter light and children discovering familiar places as if they were seeing them for the very first time. The city becomes part of the story, providing the perfect backdrop for a collection that feels both timeless and wonderfully lived-in.
There is something very tactile about it. Chunky knits invite you to touch them, soft textures seem made for chilly mornings, and warm layers wrap around little bodies without getting in the way of movement. Everything feels designed for real childhood: for wandering, playing, laughing, climbing and, inevitably, getting a little bit messy.
And perhaps that is what makes the collection so lovely. It doesn’t try too hard to dress childhood. Instead, it gives children clothes that can keep up with it, soft enough for a cuddle, comfortable enough for a run, and beautiful enough to make us adults secretly wish they came in our size too.
