Courrèges Spring/Summer 2025 collection proves there are always ways to make good out of a bad situation. In Paris, late spring, usually a harbinger of hope for warmer days, was instead a melancholic amalgamation of unpleasant rain and unpredictable cold. Inspired by the weather despair he felt when designing his latest offering, Nicolas di Felice presents a classic Courrèges collection, tailoring functionality for elegance's sake.
His inspiration is crystal clear from the beginning - the collection opens with four trench coats. Typical cold weather silhouettes are reinvented through lightweight fabrics and deconstructed touches. Satin, canvas, and raw denim are ever-present, most notably used in ‘70s-inspired looks. The brand’s identity in the decade is mentioned frequently, particularly in asymmetric button tabs.
Di Felice thrives in his exploration of geometric shapes. This season, the fascination is manifested in incredible “magic square” tops - a clear standout in the collection. Presented in both men's and women’s offerings, the deceptive garment makes it so a square of fabric appears to be floating on the body, devoid of any tattered attachments. The palette is, as always, strikingly neutral, albeit this season also includes slight pops of red and hiking-inspired abstract graphics.
