At this year’s Paris Fashion Week, Courrèges debuted its latest Spring/Summer 2025 pre-collection, showcasing a captivating fusion of innovative designs and nostalgic references. Conceived during the longest winter in decades, the collection embodies the essence of “Dreaming the sunshine beyond the clouds,” transporting us to a world of summer escapism.
Creative Director Nicolas Di Felice has reimagined the brand’s wardrobe staples, infusing them with a minimalist, calm sensuality that first emerged in the FW24 collection. Lightweight iterations of upside-down deconstructed pieces and “Magic Square” mesh tops return, elevating last season’s shapes and compositions. Luxurious materials like satin, workwear canvas, and raw indigo denim add depth and sophistication to the collection.
Delving into the brand’s archives, Di Felice pays homage to André Courrèges’ SS70 collection with asymmetric button tabs and exaggerated shoulders, reviving the iconic ’70s aesthetic. The signature Friday Bowling bag makes a comeback with an elongated volume, perfect for everyday wear.
The collection’s standout feature is Di Felice’s reimagining of the classic summer look, blending athletic inspirations with daywear essentials. Layered waistbands, oversized belt loops, and abstract graphics evoke the spirit of adventure, while watersport-inspired pieces, such as a biker jacket in scuba jersey fabrication, add a touch of urban sophistication. Slip-on footwear, inspired by diving shoes, arrives in Nappa leather, perfect for city getaways.
