But that wasn’t all. The FMFW team went further by launching a special fashion podcast during the week, where participating designers were invited to discuss key topics in menswear together with host Roderick Ramirez.

Juan De La Cruz Spring–Summer 2026 / ANGLOMANIATIC 3,0  Inspired by a concept of rawness, passion, and eccentricity, this proposal celebrates irreverence and avant-garde expression through an eclectic fusion of Anglo-Saxon influences such as equestrian, military, medieval, dandyism, and subtle sado references.

These traditions intertwine with elements from diverse cultures, particularly those of the Middle East, where elongated and oversized silhouettes prevail, recalling the use of tunics.

The design is grounded in a bold and androgynous attitude, presenting multifunctional pieces for the modern man — garments that embody confidence, individuality, and freedom from prejudice or fear of judgment.

For this season, Juan De La Cruz continues to explore structural elements, coordinating them with more intricate pieces to achieve a balance between strength, sensuality, and experimentation.

The evening also featured an art showcase by talented painter Kateryna Mariien, marking her first-ever exhibition in Miami — a significant moment met with enthusiasm by guests and media alike.
