The Pirelli Calendar has a bit of a reputation — the kind where you think, surely they can’t top last year? And then, somehow, they do. 2025’s edition gave us everyone from Hunter Schafer to John Boyega, but the 2026 lineup? It’s basically an art-world mic drop.

We’re talking FKA twigs, Tilda Swinton, Venus Williams, Irina Shayk — the kind of guest list that makes red carpets jealous. The person behind the lens? Norwegian photographer Sølve Sundsbø, who’s whisked this A-list cast to a dreamy mix of Norfolk, Essex, and New York City. (Yes, that’s the same Norfolk where you might see a windmill on your morning dog walk — only here it’s paired with couture and cosmic lighting.)

Sundsbø’s moodboard reads like the opening chapter of a very stylish philosophy book: longing for freedom, curiosity, thirst for knowledge, mystery, imagination, passion, emancipation, our connection to nature, and our wibbly-wobbly relationship with time and space. In other words, big themes — but rendered in that glossy, cinematic Pirelli way.

From sneak peeks behind the scenes, expect sweeping landscapes, otherworldly light, and the sort of portraits that could hang in a gallery or on your Pinterest board. The official release is still under wraps, but consider this your friendly nudge to make space on your moodboard — 2026’s Pirelli calendar is shaping up to be an icon.
