Comic-Con: Her Universe Fashion Show Teams Ups With Warner Bros. for DCU-Inspired Runway (EXCLUSIVE)
The Her Universe Fashion Show is teaming up with Warner Bros. Discovery at this year’s San Diego Comic Con for a DCU superhero and villain-inspired runway.
The Her Universe Fashion Show 2026 Presented by Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products will take center stage on July 23 at 6 p.m. PT in the Harbor Ballroom of the Manchester Grand Hyatt Hotel.
The 2026 event will feature a historic first as every competing look will be inspired exclusively by characters from DC’s vast library. While previous years invited a collage of fandoms, this year’s show challenges designers to channel a singular, iconic brand.
Two designers will win the chance to design a special fashion collection with Her Universe.
“It’s time for geek couture to take new heights,” actress and Her Universe founder Ashley Eckstein said in a statement Friday. “We are so excited to see how this year’s designers are inspired by DC. There are few franchises as popular as DC and it’s a privilege to be inspired by this vast world. We’re so ready to take our show…‘Up, up and away!’”
The portal for designers interested in submitting their DCU-inspired couture creations runs March 27-April 26. For official rules and submission guidelines, visit heruniverse.com.
Last year’s Her Universe Fashion Show theme was “Defying Fashion: Fashion That Defies Expectations” and featured looks inspired by various Universal Pictures and DreamWorks Animation franchises. Judges included “Wicked” and “Wicked: For Good” star Melissa Bode and Variety’s Marc Malkin.
San Diego Comic-Con 2026 takes place July 23-26.
