982-‘026 _STONE ISLAND: THE COLLECTOR SERIES AT THE CORNER SHOP
The Italian sportswear label puts the focus on its collector community at Selfridges London. From 21 September to 6 November.
Stone Island is one of the great innovators in modern menswear: a master alchemist in material innovation. In the four-decades since its inception, its famous Lab in Italy’s historic Ravarino has engineered countless new fabrics, developed groundbreaking new treatments and techniques, and continually pushed the possibilities of what fashion can be. It’s won the brand a global fan base that crosses generations, cultures and continents: each shaping and embracing the brand in their own distinctive way.
To celebrate that culture, and the different ways Stone Island is interpreted and lived, the cult Italian sportswear brand has invited some of its most devoted fans to show their collections at The Corner Shop, alongside its own archive. The exhibition traces the evolution of Stone Island’s material science, inviting you to take home rare pieces, exclusive outerwear, and new innovations from the AUTUMN_WINTER '026–'027 collection.
EXPLORE NEW INNOVATIONS
At The Corner Shop, discover Stone Island’s AUTUMN_WINTER ‘026–’027 collection, where relentless fabric research and innovation drives new forms of design. Technical nylon jackets and bonded trench coats send rainwater rolling off their surface, and textured knitwear changes colour with the temperature. Throughout the residency, look out for exclusive pieces, including a burnt-orange leather organza parka and a reflective-denim jumpsuit, alongside the global launch of Stone Island NO SEASONS: one outerwear silhouette in six fabrications, all in the brand’s famous piombo grey.
“STONE ISLAND DOESN’T TRY TO BE A BRAND FOR EVERYONE, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, THERE IS A PIECE FOR EVERYONE; IT’S BEEN GOING FOR SO LONG NOW.”
– Louis Holsgrove, collector.
TAKE HOME A PIECE OF THE STONE ISLAND ARCHIVE
At The Corner Shop, the spotlight is firmly on community and the independent collectors who preserve, interpret and obsess over every stitch, seam and detail. Across the six-week takeover, a new collector will bring their own perspective to the Stone Island archive, featuring rare and sought-after pieces that are available to purchase. Arco Maher, Louis Holsgrove and SimJa are among the devoted fans, whose pieces and expertise continue to shape Stone Island’s culture.
