The invisible string tying together Meghan Markle, John Galliano, and Bad Bunny isn't a luxury brand. It's Zara, according to fashion search engine Lyst's Q1 2026 Index report.
Fueled by celebrity Zara outfits and a host of luxury partners, 2026 is apparently the start of a Zaraissance. Lyst named the Spanish retailer "this quarter's breakout brand," due to its VIP fans and slate of designer collaborations. The biggest of all? A two-year creative partnership with John Galliano—which "moved the dial on brand heat" despite it not hitting stores until September.
