Fashion designer Debbie Co celebrates more than two decades of dressing Filipinas for life’s most meaningful occasions with the launch of Jardin du Soleil, her Resort ’26 collection that blends British sophistication with the vibrant charm of the tropics.
The collection coincides with the 21st anniversary of Atelier Debbie Co, reflecting the designer’s long-standing commitment to creating timeless pieces that empower women to celebrate every milestone with confidence and grace.
Drawing inspiration from the elegance of the traditional British afternoon tea and the relaxed beauty of tropical landscapes, Jardin du Soleil revisits one of Debbie Co’s earliest influences from her time studying at Central Saint Martins in London, reinterpreting classic British fashion through a distinctly tropical lens.
The collection features a balance of structure and softness, combining tailored day dresses, delicate lace, soft corsetry, puff sleeves, pleats, and flowing midi skirts inspired by vintage tea gowns. Lightweight fabrics and relaxed silhouettes add ease and movement, creating versatile pieces that are polished yet effortlessly wearable.
Nature also plays a central role in the collection’s design language. Botanical prints inspired by hibiscus flowers, palm leaves, and lush tropical blooms are paired with a vibrant palette of coral, mango, golden yellow, fresh green, and soft ivory, evoking the warmth and serenity of a sunlit garden. The pieces are designed to transition seamlessly from intimate celebrations and destination events to refined everyday wear.
“Jardin du Soleil is my way of bringing together two inspirations that have stayed with me over the years,” Debbie Co said.
“My experience in London introduced me to the beauty of British tradition and craftsmanship, while coming home always reminds me of the warmth, color, and vibrancy of the tropics. I wanted to create a collection that feels timeless but approachable, where elegance isn’t about formality but about feeling confident and beautiful in every moment.”
More than a seasonal collection, Jardin du Soleil reflects the philosophy that has defined Atelier Debbie Co for the past 21 years. From weddings and milestone celebrations to personal achievements and everyday moments, each design is thoughtfully crafted to accompany women through different chapters of their lives.
With its latest collection, Debbie Co continues to celebrate dressing as an experience rather than simply an occasion, encouraging women to embrace beauty not only during life’s grand celebrations but also in its quieter, everyday moments.
The Jardin du Soleil Resort ’26 Collection is now available at Atelier Debbie Co at Proscenium and at the Atelier Debbie Co Pop-up in Power Plant Mall, Rockwell, which will run until September 2026.
