London calling.
London is changing, and A-COLD-WALL* is looking straight at it. For the Fall/Winter 2026 season, the British label has tapped artist and producer Actress for a new campaign exploring the Big Smoke’s ever-shifting landscape.
Shot by Nick Griffiths, the campaign follows Actress, real name Darren J. Cunningham, through some of the capital’s most heavily regenerated areas, where new buildings and spaces feel far removed from the London of old. In additon, the visuals also look back to the 2012 Olympics, which helped speed up the redevelopment of East London.
For A-COLD-WALL*, the changing city provides the setting for its latest collection, fitting with the label’s interest in modern life, buildings and the future. Actress also brings his own connection to the idea of looking forward. Over the past 20 years, Cunningham has built a name for himself in British electronic music, releasing music through Ninja Tune and his own Werkdiscs label.
The result is a campaign that puts the label’s seasonal offerings against a place that is constantly changing, with Actress moving through the city as it continues to take on a new shape.
