This is Episode 1 of The Style Index, by The Design Muse — an editorial catalog of the ideas shaping Spring/Summer 2026. Today’s entry is Fashion as Feeling, a study of how emotion, movement, and instinct translate directly into silhouette. From softness and sway to tension and release, this episode explores the sensory undercurrent of the season — the way clothes carry mood, memory, and meaning. Here, feeling isn’t an afterthought; it’s the design language of Spring/Summer 2026. More entries are coming. Save this one for your seasonal moodboard.
