From 17 to 20 September 2026, HEAD – Genève presented NEXT FORM: Emerging Practices in Jewelry, Accessories and Fashion Design at Dover Street Market Paris, featuring a selection of graduation projects in fashion, jewelry and accessories. More than 600 people attended the event from the opening night onwards, in the heart of the Marais. 

The preview and opening brought together industry professionals, journalists, partners, alumni and a wide audience, offering graduates a unique opportunity to present their work and engage with key figures from the sector. Over four days, the exhibition approached wearable design as a field of experimentation and research — where the body becomes a site of exploration, the object a vehicle for storytelling, and material a language to be reinvented.

HEAD – Genève warmly thanks the Embassy of Switzerland in France for its support of NEXT FORM, USM for its contribution to the scenography, Dover Street Market Paris for hosting the exhibition, and all the teams who contributed to its success. 

Save the date: the young designers featured in NEXT FORM will also take part in the HEAD Fashion Show 2026, on 6 November at Le Cube.
