Alaïa remains without a creative director, since Pieter Mulier exited the Paris-based fashion label and headed to Milan to lead Versace. Nevertheless, here at theFashionSpot, we’ve been captivated by Alaïa’s advertising campaigns lately – featuring talents like Hailey Bieber, Mona Tougaard, Noor Khan, and Fei Fei Sun. The powers that be at Alaïa HQ secured none other than Teyana Taylor for the Summer/Fall 2026 campaign installment. The multi-faceted American talent strikes several dynamic poses for the British photographer David Sims for the occasion, with styling from Aleksandra Woroniecka. The Golden Globe Award-winner brings an endless amount of energy and star power throughout the series of studio-shot black and white campaign images.
Teyana Taylor in the Alaïa Summer/Fall 2026 Campaign
Read below the reactions of theFashionSpot’s forum members:
“Hate it. She’s gorgeous, but she always comes across as a glorified influencer to me. Teyana suits Tom Ford much better,” Squizree remarked.
“Missed opportunity. Teyana is a dancer as well, and these are the most basic moves and poses you ask of her? The concept could have been more high fashion and striking,” PDFSD noted.
“Nothing we haven’t seen before in an Alaïa campaign. Very safe, and she looks awkward,” pointed out forum member prada melodies.
Sharing the same underwhelming sentiments was style_expert. “This could have been so good. The casting is right, but everything else is wrong!”
