On Monday, September 15th, Chelsea Industrial in New York City set the stage for Natalie De’Banco’s Spring/Summer 2026 presentation, Concrete Safari. The collection, a dialogue between untamed nature and the urban grit of New York, drew a distinguished and star-studded audience. Among the front-row luminaries were Saweetie, Victoria Justice, Dascha Polanco, Nicky Hilton, Rachel Hilbert, and athletes including Olivia Nelson-Ododa of the Connecticut Suns and Kiki Iriafen of the Washington Mystics, alongside influencers, models, and tastemakers such as Jackie Aina, Ekin Su Cülcüloğlu, and Batsheva Haart.

The Collection

Concrete Safari embodies the modern woman’s duality—refined yet audacious, cultivated yet untamed. De’Banco marries modern sportswear with eveningwear, blending architectural tailoring with fluid, slinky silhouettes and subtle, daring edges. Oversized jackets and sleek separates convey an effortless yet cultivated style, perfectly attuned to the rhythm of the contemporary woman.

The color story traverses ivory and seafoam, anchored by sage and terracotta, punctuated with hyper-real safari graphics, gilded spinal accents, and artisanal hand-crocheted details. A newly introduced line of accessories bridges daywear and evening occasions, designed to meet the dynamic needs of a New York woman—functional yet luxuriously refined.
