The 2026 Collection

Colour, structure and movement

The 2026 Collection brings together the vibrant colour of Thenu’s Sri Lankan heritage and the clean, considered lines of Finnish design.

Deep jewel tones – red, teal, plum and cobalt – meet sculpted bows, draped shoulders, layers of organza and flowing trains. Each gown is designed to move with the person wearing it, from the first entrance to the last dance.

Every garment is made with care and attention to detail, from the first sketch and fitting to the final seam. At Tikki ja Tyyli, fashion is personal, creative and sustainable.
