Hackett Showcases The Best Of The Season With David Gandy

For Spring/Summer 2026, two icons of British style and menswear are joining forces to explore every step of the way in ‘The Journey Of A Man’. David Gandy is the ambassador for Hackett’s campaign this season, which brings a new dimension of timeless looks for men in colours, styles, and options one might previously not have associated with the brand.

Gandy was photographed by Mariano Vivanco in the Al Qudra Desert near Dubai, allowing the sharp styles and crisp fits to shine against the serene landscapes. You might not always be in such striking corners of the globe, but the outfits Gandy wears are quintessentially classic, no matter where on Earth your adventures take you.

The key focus comes from Hackett London and its range of softer blazers, linen overshirts, and go-anywhere, do-anything pieces featuring lightweight, breathable, crease-resistant materials. The colour palette, from coastal blue to rich navy, as well as terracotta, dusty pink, and green, is as elegant and effervescent as the abundance of sunshine all around Gandy.

Meanwhile, Hackett’s signature No.14 Savile Row series also focuses on linen, which can be seen and felt in caban jackets, structured blazers, featherlight shirts, and draped trousers. And what’s summer without a new duffle bag full of swimwear?

Another key highlight of the season is the Hackett Heritage collaboration with the London Rowing Club, which is inspired by the world of British collegiates and camaraderie. The looks are as cool as the items themselves, as the fabrics are similarly lightweight and breathable, while the tailoring and fits are also more relaxed. Elements of the brand’s beginnings in 1983, as well as equestrian and polo influences, can also be traced throughout the collection, in addition to an unmistakable sense of British confidence.

To commemorate the local launch of its Spring/Summer 2026 collection, Hackett hosted a styling masterclass at its boutique in Pavilion Kuala Lumpur. Host Will Quah, together with the store’s styling team, demonstrated how just a couple of key items can be transformed into multiple different outfits for a wide spectrum of occasions with just an additional item or two, from a lazy day out to an important dinner with VIPs. Guests also had the opportunity to check out a wide range of new footwear options, from suede loafers to leather sneakers, as well as other versatile accessories.
