Slimsuit at the Verte Hotel, Warsaw — 2026
Every season has a starting point, and for us it isn’t the shop floor — it’s the showroom. This spring, the Slimsuit distributor team travelled to Warsaw for the Triumph Spring/Summer 2026 collection showcase, held at the Verte Hotel in the heart of the city. Three days of fittings, fabric handling, buying appointments and long conversations about what our customers will actually want to wear next summer.
Here’s what we took away from it.
Why we go in person
Line sheets and digital catalogues are useful, but they can’t tell you how a cup holds its shape after the fifth try-on, how a bonded edge sits against skin, or how a swim fabric recovers when it’s stretched. Those are the details that decide whether a style sells through or sits in the stockroom. Being in the room with the product — and with the Triumph and sloggi product teams who developed it — is the fastest way to build a range we can stand behind.
It also matters for our retail partners. Almost every question we get asked during a season launch is a fitting question, and the answers are easier to give when you’ve handled the garment yourself.
Triumph: shaping, support, and quieter luxury
The Triumph presentation covered the full Spring/Summer 2026 offer across lingerie, shapewear and swimwear. A few themes stood out to the team:
- Support without structure on show. The engineering is doing more work while announcing itself less — smoother cup constructions, softer wire encasements, and moulded pieces that read almost seamless under lightweight summer clothing.
- Fabric as the differentiator. Lighter, faster-drying knits, refined lace, and a noticeably better hand-feel across the mid-tier price points.
- A confident colour story.
- Swimwear that behaves like lingerie. Cup sizing, underwiring and back support carried properly into the swim range, which is exactly what the fuller-bust customer keeps asking for.
Sloggi: the everyday range that keeps growing
If Triumph is the statement, sloggi is the habit. The Spring/Summer 2026 sloggi line-up leaned hard into what the brand does best — comfort-first basics, breathable cotton and modal, clean cuts, and multipack logic that makes reordering simple for retailers.
The team was particularly interested in the seamless and second-skin styles, which continue to be one of the most reliable repeat-purchase categories we carry. Add the ongoing move towards more responsible materials and the range becomes an easier sell to customers who are asking those questions at the till.
What happens next
The Slimsuit buying team is now finalising our Spring/Summer 2026 selection. Our focus is the same as always: a range that covers the sizes our customers actually are, in fits that hold up after a season of wear.
Retail partners: our SS2026 order books open soon, and we’ll be sharing the full range presentation with you shortly. If you’d like a preview session or a fitting-focused walkthrough of the new constructions, get in touch with your account contact and we’ll set it up.
