The Elena Velez Anti-Hero Goes Out West for Spring 2026

Velez has reimagined New York City’s famous Cabaret Club, The Box, as the setting for her new BAD LANDS collection. This season, she presents a striking line of women’s wear inspired by folklore and the Wild West. The collection’s central figure, the Velez ‘antihero,’ embodies a gritty, yet expansive exploration of the American Dream, channeling the style of the Great Depression era and venturing into a bold new creative territory for the brand.
