[Emporio Armani] 2026 Spring/Summer Men's Collection "ORIGINS" Collaboration Song

"Sand Castle" will be available for digital download starting June 10th, 2026 (Wednesday) at 0:00 AM!


In this collaboration, visuals, music, and clothing come together, along with music inspired by the world of "ORIGINS," to express the origins of beauty and vitality depicted in the collection in a three-dimensional way.

"ORIGINS" is a collection that shines a light on the roots and values discovered during a journey of exploring different cultures, celebrating cultural background and individuality. Lightweight materials, flowing forms, and colors reminiscent of sun-drenched earth come together to create garments that reflect inner energy and positive will, where tradition and modernity naturally intersect and harmonize into a new beauty—this is what Emporio Armani considers to be the essence of fashion.

 

The new song "Sand Castle," which is INI's first song sung entirely in English,

The song expresses a confrontation with oneself by likening preconceived notions within oneself to a "sandcastle." Set to a light, floating R&B-style sound, it showcases the mature side of the members' vocals and embodies the group's challenge to explore new forms of self-expression.


And the artwork for this album was done by member IKEZAKI RIHITO.

He expresses the world of the song through the delicate touch he creates himself.


IKEZAKI RIHITO (INI) Comment
This is the first time I've created artwork for an INI song.
It has always been my dream to have my drawings incorporated into a work of art, so I am truly honored that this has come true in this way. Spending a long time engaging with the artwork allowed me to encounter new values and ways of thinking, and it was a valuable time for me to confront myself as well.
This song embodies the theme of Emporio Armani's "ORIGINS" collection, "A Challenge to New Self-Expression," and conveys the message of breaking down preconceived notions like sandcastles and moving forward. I hope it reaches everyone.


To commemorate the release, on Wednesday, June 10th, from 9:30 PM to 10:00 PM, at INI Official Stationhead,
We will be holding a Listening Party to celebrate the release.

Furthermore, a special clip of "Sand Castle" will be released on INI's official YouTube channel on Monday, June 15th at 7:00 PM!
Please look forward to the release.
