AIR OF NEWS: THE KEYWORD IS "DEMURE"
Fall/Winter 2024-2025 fashion focuses on a comfortable and versatile wardrobe, avoiding excessive risks and enhancing basic garments. These essential elements are reinterpreted in a modern key, becoming a canvas on which everyone can express their personality. The real experiments are found in the colors: next to the classic black and gray, typical of the winter season, there are new intense and enveloping shades such as plum, grape purple and undergrowth green. This palette recalls the colors of nature and captures the sweetness of the mid-season.
In addition to colors, cuts and textures are played with. Corolla skirts, midi dresses and heavier outerwear are revisited with innovative sartorial details, offering a fresh take on the classic. It is precisely in these sublime and unexpected craftsmanship that elite fashion expresses itself to the fullest, giving a new soul to tradition.
Here are some of the main trends for this season, born from the observation of the new collections of the brands and their fashion shows during the last fashion week.
The lady like strikes again
The silhouettes of the fall/winter 2024-2025 are inspired by the retro charm of the '50s and early '60s, reinterpreting the elegance of that period in a modern key. Midi corolla skirts, cut on the bias or enriched with deep pleats and pleating, take center stage, giving the look a refined movement. The trousers choose dry lines or bootcut, for an effect that softens the figure and adds femininity.
The tops, on the other hand, introduce contemporary details: open bodysuits and sweaters tied at the neck add a bold touch that makes the vintage style current. The look is completed by egg-shaped coats with enveloping lines and maxi clutches carried by hand, for a sophisticated alternative to “quiet luxury”, which combines discreet elegance and attention to detail.
The modern reinterpretation of boho chic
Boho chic, born in the 2000s thanks to icons like Sienna Miller and the Olsen twins, is back today with a new interpretation. This time, the lightness of voil is combined with shiny leather, creating an interesting contrast. Ruffles and fringes remain essential elements, while layering becomes the key to a winning look.
The allure of low life
Slow pace and the desire to dedicate time to yourself, away from the daily frenzy. It is the beauty of “little things”: taking a walk to the market, buying a freshly baked baguette or staying in bed until late. Slow life is no longer just a Sunday morning ritual, but a real trend that conquers every moment of the week.
Thus becoming a real trend for the new season, so much so that several brands add comfortable and practical items to their collections: typical of low life.
Saloir style on the catwalk
This will be the basic trend protagonist of the fall-winter 2024-2025. Classic colors like white and navy blue return to dominate with their timeless elegance, even in the striped version. Every detail inspired by the sailor's life is reinterpreted with charm: from double-breasted closures to captain's hats, without forgetting the iconic caban, which will return to being a must in our wardrobes.
Business woman(man)
The tailored suit is back as a protagonist as we can see in particular from the latest Saint Laurent fashion show; resuming its rigorous and impeccable essence, well structured, like in the 80s. However, compared to that decade, the broad shoulders are given up in favor of a slim-fit line, especially for the jacket. Classic colors such as black, gray and brown, as well as pinstripes, offer multiple variations to explore, making the suit a must-try in different interpretations.
A season full of revivals
The 2024-2025 fall-winter season promises to be a true celebration of revivals. The references to the past are loud and clear, with a return of trends that have marked eras and decades, but revisited in a modern key. From the timeless elegance of the boho chic of the 2000s, which is reborn with a touch of sophistication, to the tailored suits that recall the 80s, but with more streamlined and contemporary lines, each look seems like a journey through time.
The revival doesn’t stop at fashion, but also extends to details and accessories: fringes, ruffles, captain’s hats, double-breasted jackets and the return of the iconic navy stripes are all signs of a return to the past that looks to the future. A season that celebrates the beauty of what has been, reinterpreted with freshness, to create a perfect fusion between nostalgia and innovation. A season full of revivals, where the past is the protagonist and the future is built on its successes.
