Charli xcx continues her “rock music” era with the release of the song and video for “SS26,” taking fans behind the scenes and on the runway at a fashion show.

The singer preempted the video release of “SS26” with a 30-minute “Pre Show” on YouTube, where she tried on different outfits and showcased clothes from designers she’s worn as of late (Zadig & Voltaire in the video for “Rock Music,” Lou de Bètoly at the 2026 Berlin International Film Festival). She then premiered the official video, in which she served a variety of looks while mugging for the cameras.
