About Collection SS26 Through Wire and Air
luur’s debut collection, Through Wire and Air, explores the evolving relationship between humans, robots, and artificial intelligence, the meeting point between our organic world and the cold logic of metal.
The collection reflects both the tension and harmony between these two realms: our uncertainty around emerging technologies and the imagined desire of machines to understand, assist, and perhaps even befriend us.
Presented in two parts, The Basics and The Capsules, the collection approaches this story through material, functionality, art, and graphic expression.
The Basics
Designed to live effortlessly in an everyday wardrobe, The Basics combine functionality with refined minimalism.
For SS26, luur introduces four key materials: tropical wool, a Tencel–linen blend, crisp paper cotton, and technical rainwear. Each is selected for its character, performance, and ability to elevate essential silhouettes.
Natural textures meet technical materials, subtly reflecting the wider dialogue of the collection: organic and engineered, human and machine.
The Capsules
Released as a series of limited drops, The Capsules use artwork, graphics, and language to explore different aspects of our relationship with technology.
Language of the Machine explores the codes, symbols, and new forms of communication emerging between humans and machines.
Flowers Through Wire and Air — Valentina Bones (I Am Human) brings the natural and technological worlds together, questioning what remains distinctly human as technology becomes increasingly present in our lives.
Computer Is OFF celebrates disconnection — the decision to step away from work, media, and screens to become present in the physical world again.
If I Could Only Be a Robot reverses the perspective, imagining humans drawn to the efficiency of machines while robots attempt to understand emotion, friendship, and human connection.
Together, the chapters tell a story of fear, fascination, curiosity, and coexistence — imagining a future where humans and machines are not necessarily in opposition, but learning how to understand one another.
Through wire and air, two worlds begin to meet.
