Drawing inspiration from the tailored suits worn across West Africa, the collection reimagines them as “dignified armor,” with strong, structured tailoring that celebrates the body’s form. Other looks incorporate flowing silhouettes, patterned textiles and rich textures that offer visual and tactile depth.Honoring Rastafarian prophets and cultural leaders, the collection visually interprets diasporic narratives. Jamaican crochet patterns are transformed into structured, tailored craftsmanship — subtly embedded into garments as accents that elevate the aesthetic. Bold patchwork and vibrant color palettes blend refined and rugged textures, rooted in the designer’s Jamaican heritage. Striking greens, yellows and reds serve as homage to home, fusing cultural legacy with artistic execution.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

JAH JAH recently unveiled its Spring/Summer 2026 collection at Paris Fashion Week. Originally founded as an Afro-vegan dining and cultural space in Paris, the brand continues to expand its vision — grounded in Rastafarian and Pan-African ideologies — into fashion. Their designs serve as a powerful visual instrument of memory and cultural storytelling.

A standout moment from the runway was the reveal of JAH JAH’s upcoming collaboration with adidas Originals: the Megaride S2 sneaker, slated for release in Spring 2026. The shoe features a yellow, green and red gradient base —honoring the Ethiopian flag — overlaid with a black grid-like pattern. Designed as both statement and staple, the sneaker adds a finishing touch to any look.

Titled “A Silent March,” the collection is presented by self-taught designer Daquisiline Gomis, who describes the pieces as part of an “insurrectional aesthetic” — where silhouettes become manifestos and garments act as flags. Drawing inspiration from the tailored suits worn across West Africa, the collection reimagines them as “dignified armor,” with strong, structured tailoring that celebrates the body’s form. Other looks incorporate flowing silhouettes, patterned textiles and rich textures that offer visual and tactile depth.

Honoring Rastafarian prophets and cultural leaders, the collection visually interprets diasporic narratives. Jamaican crochet patterns are transformed into structured, tailored craftsmanship — subtly embedded into garments as accents that elevate the aesthetic. Bold patchwork and vibrant color palettes blend refined and rugged textures, rooted in the designer’s Jamaican heritage.
