6397 Spring 2026 Ready-to-Wear

“It just continues,” offered the 6397 designer Lizzie Owens this morning at the brand’s showroom. “It’s what 6397 is, it’s all about real clothes, but they still have something compelling to them. It’s familiar, but it’s also new.” Most labels, in New York or elsewhere, that offer the kinds of clothes that 6397 does—contemporary, wearable, pragmatic—swear by a similar ethos. But at 6397 it happens to be true. An all-American heather gray knit had a silver tint to it; the stripes in the knitted vests and dresses were slightly askew, and blazers were finished with gathered, almost bubble hems. Poplin shirting wasn’t reserved for button downs only, but appeared fashioned into a style reminiscent of a hoodie. Kilts and skirts were not constrictive and “body-con,” but both square-ish and flattering, and almost gender-agnostic.
