ES COLLECTION / MIAMI · CIRCUIT
Miami swimwear by day, Circuit Festival 2026 by night
ES Collection's Miami 2026 lines move from close swim cuts to shirts and easy trousers. The official Circuit Festival Barcelona 2026 tank and shorts belong to another kind of summer, the one that carries on until morning.
THE CUT
Same colour, completely different fit. A brief and a trunk draw very different lines at the hip, and they make for very different afternoons.
One shade, two silhouettes
Budapest summers run hot. The 2026 Pride march set off in temperatures of 38 to 40 degrees, and on days like that everyone who can heads for a lido or the shore of Lake Balaton. Orange suits that kind of day. As a brief it shows more hip and thigh, for a day spent in the sun; as a trunk it covers more of the leg and works just as well at the pool bar.
Blue stripes have a calmer, nautical feel. A striped brief is the one that comes along on every trip, from a Budapest lido to a week by the sea, and still looks right on the last day. The rest of the summer is covered by the full range of men's swimwear, from close briefs to longer trunks.
The shirt deserves its own place
Miami Casual is for the hours after the beach: a shower, a cold drink, dinner somewhere with the windows open. Burgundy and soft neutrals take over from bright swim prints, and texture becomes the focus. These are not cover-ups meant to come off. The top carries the outfit while the trousers stay simple.
In Budapest the same hours belong to a terrace in the inner city or a warm night by the Danube. A textured shirt with plain trousers works there just as it would in Miami, while the close swim brief stays in the bag until tomorrow. The full ES Collection range, from the Barcelona label founded in 2006, covers both halves of the day.
Circuit Festival 2026 gets its own outfit
Circuit Festival began in Barcelona in 2008, launched by the local promoter Matinée Group. It has since become one of the best-known LGBTQ+ festivals in Europe. For the 2026 edition, ES Collection made the official outfit, a sleeveless tank and shorts with festival graphics.
It is an outfit for the dance floor at three in the morning and for the pool party the next afternoon, the two halves of a Circuit week. For anyone flying in from Budapest, it travels home well too, to the next Pride or the next long summer night out.
