Boutiques and private-label brands must plan 6–12 months in advance for 2026. Key tips include:

• Spring/Summer: Lightweight maxi dresses, co-ord sets, and pastel shades
• Autumn/Winter: Layered tops, palazzos, and mid-weight fabrics
• Resort Wear: Flowy, printed co-ords and jumpsuits for holiday collections
