TNF X CECILIE BAHNSEN
The North Face and Cecilie Bahnsen unveil their fourth collaboration, which first debuted during Bahnsen’s Fall/Winter 2026 show, “Practice,” at Paris Fashion Week in March. The collection brings together The North Face’s performance-driven heritage and Bahnsen’s signature romantic sensibility, exploring the intersection of technical innovation and timeless design.
Celebrating four seasons of softness and strength, the collection reimagines classic silhouettes from The North Face archive through Bahnsen’s feminine lens. Sculptural designs, technical materials and intricate floral embroidery bring beauty and performance into balance across new outerwear, footwear and bags.
Shot by Pia Riverola, the campaign celebrates the sisterhood of women through movement, craftsmanship and a shared connection to the outdoors. Athletes Iris Pham and Molly Thompson-Smith join models in a collective portrait of community and self-expression, set against Copenhagen’s industrial Refshaleøen. Blending softness and strength, the imagery brings together Cecilie Bahnsen’s romantic aesthetic with The North Face’s untamed outdoor spirit.
Grounded in a palette of midnight navy and black, the collection explores subtle contrasts in color, texture and form. Delicate floral detailing is integrated into hardware and trims, while considered construction softens the technical edge of classic outdoor staples.
Across footwear and accessories, familiar forms are reinterpreted through Bahnsen’s distinctive design language, pairing performance-driven materials with thoughtful details. Continuing an evolving dialogue between performance and poetry.
“For the fourth edition of our collaboration with The North Face, couture craftsmanship is taken to new heights” said Cecilie Bahensen. “Bags are adorned with cascading floral appliqués, while delicate lace embroidery blossoms across the surfaces of technical down jackets. Rooted in the beauty of nature, the poetry of movement and the art of craft, this season brings a sense of softness and romance to technical outerwear.
New to the collection, the first-ever The North Face x Cecilie Bahnsen Nuptse Short Jacket reimagines the iconic Nuptse silhouette through Bahnsen’s signature romantic lens. Featuring a cropped silhouette and Superpose Embroidery floral motifs inspired by nature, the jacket brings a new expression of femininity to one of The North Face’s most recognizable designs.
“For this capsule, Cecilie and her team brought an artisanal point of view to every product category, reimagining icons including the Nuptse and ThermoBall Traction Mules through a continued feminine lens that has always been synonymous with her label’s design codes,” said David Whetstone, Director of Collaborations and Energy for The North Face. “The process challenged the boundaries of technical product, bringing couture-inspired craft, dimension and warmth to pieces built for performance.”
The seven-piece collection features the Lucia Nuptse Short and Sofia Insulated Crew Neck Top in TNF Black, the Meghan Small Crevasse Cinch Bag, Amalia Waist Pack, and Symone Dotknit Top in Midnight Sky and the Martina Verto Alpine Mid in Midnight Sky/TNF Black and Angela ThermoBall Mule in TNF Black.
The collection will be available exclusively to XPLR members from 11:00 am on Thursday, 5 November, 2026 at The North Face Urban Exploration Concept Store, Pacific Place. Limited quantities available while stocks last.
