At this season's Shanghai Fashion Week, DAPHNE.LAB joined forces with the experimental Chinese brand MARRKNULL to present "In a hurry", a Spring/Summer 2026 collaboration collection that turned the chaos of modern life into a high-fashion concept.
Built around the energy of motion and imperfection, the collection captures what it feels like to exist in constant change and movement. Fragmented silhouettes, uneven layering, and tactile fabrics mirror the friction of urban living, where speed often replaces stillness, and beauty emerges from imbalance.
Designer duo Marrk and Shitian from MARRKNULL infused their distinctive deconstructed sensibility into DAPHNE.LAB's bold, youth-oriented approach. The result is a collision of raw experimentation and refined craft, a wardrobe designed for a generation learning to find grace in disorder.
Instead of choosing perfection, "In a hurry" embraces the unfinished, the imperfect, and the spontaneous. It's a manifesto for creative freedom that celebrates authenticity not as a polished state, but as a fleeting moment caught between chaos and control.
