For SS26, Riverslide trades familiar South London surroundings for the coastline of Marseille, exploring a city where everyday life unfolds against a backdrop of limestone cliffs, hidden swimming spots and endless stretches of Mediterranean blue. Invited into the lives of a tight-knit group of locals, the campaign focuses less on destination and more on perspective, uncovering the places, routines and landscapes that shape summer for those who know the city best.
The Collection
Across the collection, Riverslide introduces a concise offering of seasonal staples built for long days spent moving between coast and city. Three swim short colourways are at the foundation, accompanied by sleeveless T-shirts in a trio of summery colours that capture the heat of the South of France. Completing the capsule is a duo of work shorts that continue the brand’s appreciation for functionality. One comes in a premium grey denim finished with red embroidery, while the second takes a whole different approach through a black construction fitted with oversized front-fold pockets.
Casa Riviera
Alongside the collection sits Casa Riviera, a new world that broadens Riverslide’s universe beyond geography. Less a destination and more a feeling, Casa Riviera takes inspiration from places that exist between the glamour and decay. The kind of coastal town where paint peels from sun-faded walls and locals gather at the same bar every single evening.
