The Jenny Packham Autumn Winter 2026 Edit
Jenny Packham’s autumn winter 2026 collection has landed at Luxury Shoes , and it is a clear statement of what the London house does best: the beaded evening gown, cut to fall cleanly, finished by hand. Forty-two pieces are now live, spanning floor-length gowns, cocktail midis, a handful of minis, and two covers. Below is the edit our styling team keeps returning to.
The gowns
The season’s most worked piece is the Bonnie in Liquorice, a black sequin column that catches light across its whole length. Reach for it when the invitation says black tie and you intend to be photographed.
Twilight takes a different route to drama. Cut in Cobalt Blue with a cape falling from the shoulder, it moves rather than glitters, and the colour does the work that beading does elsewhere.
For ivory, Symphony is the one. A beaded bodice over a fluid skirt, it reads as bridal without being a wedding dress, which makes it useful for a reception, a rehearsal dinner, and increasingly for the wedding itself.
Narcissus is gold from shoulder to hem with a plunging neckline and structured shoulders. Zodiac works the same full-sequin idea in lilac, softer and easier to wear twice.
If you want the beading concentrated rather than all over, Trinity puts it in the bodice and lets the skirt fall plain, with a high neckline and short sleeves. Nothing else in the collection covers as much.
The shorter lengths
Not every occasion is floor-length. Countessa is a black cocktail dress with a gathered mini skirt and long sleeves, the proportion that works for a party where you intend to stand up all evening.
Mantra is the quiet one, a pale blue column cut to the knee with a jewelled neckline. This is the one for a daytime wedding, and the only real colour surprise in a collection that otherwise runs black, ivory and gold.
How the collection fits
Jenny Packham cuts to a UK ladder, and the brand states this season’s pieces fit true to size. A UK 10 is a US 6 and an EU 38. Most are close through the bodice with internal shoulder pads on a mid-weight cloth that does not stretch, so take your usual size. Two corseted styles are noted by the brand as running small, and those pages tell you to size up by one.
Everything here is fully lined and dry clean only. Store on a padded hanger so the beading does not pull the shoulder out of shape.
Where it sits
If you are cross-shopping, Safiyaa is the London house for architectural draping and cape gowns, Zuhair Murad brings Beirut couture embroidery in a more ornate register, and Markarian works a lighter, hand-finished New York line.
