AW26 Eden Noir - Set Amongst the Vines
For AW26, we travelled to Red Hill on the Mornington Peninsula — a place shaped by elevation, restraint, and quiet beauty. Perched at the highest point of the peninsula and surrounded by ocean on three sides, RHV Winery became the setting for our campaign, chosen for its deep connection to craft and intention.
Founded in 1989 and defined by rich red ferrosol soils and a cool maritime climate, RHV is a small, hand-tended vineyard guided by a minimal-intervention philosophy. Every step, from vineyard to winery, is considered, allowing nature and time to lead. It’s an approach that closely mirrors how we design and make our collections at The Ark.

AW26 is built around layered silhouettes, tactile fabrications, and an elevated sense of comfort — pieces designed to feel confident, wearable, and enduring. Our ongoing commitment to Australian-made design is central to the collection, with locally crafted styles created with care, longevity, and purpose in mind.

Like the wines produced at RHV, AW26 is a reflection of patience and process — shaped by intention, grounded in quality, and designed to be worn and appreciated over time.
