AURALEE x TEKLA Brings the Outdoors Into the Home for FW26
Inspired by the concept of “wintering,” the second collaboration brings together cozy knitwear, sleepwear and more.
Summary
AURALEE and TEKLA reunite for their second collaboration, exploring Scandinavian winter living.
Highlights include wool-cashmere knitwear, checked flannel sleepwear, shearling slippers and home textiles.
Launching October 28, the collection blends Japanese craftsmanship with Scandinavian comfort.
Finding comfort in the colder months is at the heart of AURALEE and TEKLA‘s second collaborative capsule, which brings together Japanese textile craftsmanship and Scandinavian sensibilities for Fall/Winter 2026. Following their inaugural partnership back in 2024, the two labels reunite to explore the concept of “wintering,” drawing inspiration from the contrast between the harsh Nordic outdoors and the warmth of domestic spaces.
Rooted in the Scandinavian philosophy of friluftsliv, which emphasizes the importance of spending time in nature, the collection reflects a lifestyle that embraces the elements while finding equal pleasure in the comforts of home. AURALEE’s expertise in fabric development and understated layering meets TEKLA’s refined approach to home textiles, resulting in a coordinated assortment of knitwear, sleepwear, bedding and accessories designed to move seamlessly between indoor relaxation and everyday dressing.
The collection’s knitwear is crafted from a soft blend of 70% wool and 30% cashmere, offered in earthy Forest Green and Soil Brown colorways that echo the natural landscape. Crewneck cardigans and boatneck sweaters are accompanied by matching arm warmers and neck warmers, encouraging tonal layering through relaxed silhouettes and tactile textures.
Sleepwear, a returning category from the brands’ first collaboration, receives an update in brushed organic cotton flannel, featuring a purple-and-orange “Dawn Checks” pattern inspired by the sky before sunrise. The print appears across long-sleeve shirts, relaxed pants and boxer shorts, introducing a warmer, more expressive palette to the collection’s otherwise subdued aesthetic. Together, the pieces emphasize comfort through considered fabric choices, with AURALEE’s signature material development bringing a refined finish to familiar wardrobe essentials.
Extending the collaboration into the home, the capsule introduces pale green shearling slippers, striped lambswool blankets and deep brown percale bedding, alongside cotton socks in muted blue and grey tones. The combination of natural fibers, understated patterns and earthy colors creates a cohesive visual language that carries across both apparel and interiors, reinforcing the collection’s emphasis on everyday comfort and functional beauty.
The second AURALEE x TEKLA collection is scheduled to launch on October 28, 2026, through both brands’ official online stores and select retailers worldwide.
