This spring, Express is leaning into a silhouette that suggests you actually have a life outside of the office. The latest styles embrace a high-low tension where formal elements like the houndstooth suit jacket meet the casual ease of distressed denim, navigating the space between “intern at a gallery” and “executive on a Saturday.”
Express Spring 2026
The season feels like a fever dream where a 1950s bowling alley meets a sun-soaked Miami sidewalk. You see it in the embroidered contrast floral cotton shirt, which sidesteps the bold prints of tropical vacations for a more artisanal flair.
Express’ ribbed Johnny collar sweater provides an academic charm, looking less like a prep school requirement and more like something a French cinema star would wear to hide from the paparazzi. (Go full Nouvelle Vague with our guide to French style.)
Pairing the faux leather jacket over a relaxed button-up is the type of move that injects attitude. The result is effortlessly cool. This is exactly how you dress when you want to look sharp without appearing like you spent more than five minutes in front of a mirror.
