Celebrating the art of romance through the ages, James McQueen's Special Edition 2026 collection is a statement disguised as a classic, polished on the surface and daring at the core. Inspired by the quiet intensity of vintage Hollywood movies, this collection blends elegant romance with a spark that refuses to behave.
A reminder that romance can be daring and magnetic, 'Shut Up and Kiss Me' is about surrender - the kind that happens not through grand gestures, but through a glance, a smile, a kiss. Together, the duo forms a composition that doesn't flirt from the shadows, it steps forward with confidence, offering romance that's striking, passionate and beautifully unrestrained - proof that some stories were never meant to be quiet.
With vivid hues and energetic typography, the artworks are impossible to ignore - like the irresistible pull of leaning in for a kiss, unable to hold back any longer.
For those rule-breakers who cherish vintage aesthetics but crave a contemporary edge, it draws on the unveiling drama of vintage book covers, the kind once found tucked on bedside tables or hidden beneath velvet chaise lounges. Those old stories with their magic, glamour and tension - unapologetic tales of yearning.
"This is my love letter to the kind of romance that never apologises, the kind that doesn't tiptoe. I wanted to capture that energy, the moment when love becomes too full, too bright, too urgent to stay polite."- James McQueen
