Talbots marked its first-ever NYFW presentation with “Café Talbots,” an immersive Fall 2026 collection preview at New York City’s Lafayette Grand Café & Bakery. Transforming the iconic destination into a Parisian-inspired experience, the event offered guests an intimate first look at the new collection. Special appearances included co-host supermodel Niki Taylor, actress Justine Lupe from Succession and Nobody Wants This, and Gretchen Mol, best known for Boardwalk Empire and Rounders; all modeled the collection’s must-see looks. Guests left sporting a “City Chic” embroidered tote filled with Talbots accessories and meaningful takeaways.
