Recreation Dressing

Off-duty but chic. Tennis skirts, matching sets—runway to real life. This season pulls from everyday hobbies and routines, from Celine’s riding helmets to Miu Miu’s aprons and Dries Van Noten’s board shorts.

 Retro Summer

Very European summer energy. Polka dots, Missoni, florals—pieces that feel timeless but still fresh. Like something you’d wear in the South of France in the ’70s, without overthinking it.

 Mode Sportif

Sporty, but elevated. Nylon anoraks and technical pieces styled with heels—clean, effortless, and slightly unexpected.

Jazz Age

The 1920s shift dress returns in modern fabrics and prints. Drop-waist, midi length, fringe, movement—pieces that feel fun when you walk. It’s giving night out, but more relaxed.
