BEHIND THE SCENES SPRING 25
Spring 25, ‘Human Nature’, explores the intricate relationship between human-made environments and the natural world. This concept delves into the possibilities of achieving a balanced coexistence, envisioning a future where progress respects and integrates with nature.
By examining how these two realms can complement each other, the collection aims to inspire a harmonious evolution that prioritizes sustainability and mutual growth. This journey through duality seeks to find innovative ways to blend the human-made with the organic, featuring organic shapes, woven textures, and deliberate imperfections, including organic draped dresses, ruched minis, and intricate lace panelled slips offset by deconstructed suits and workwear-inspired outerwear.
Craftsmanship that aligns with and respects nature is woven throughout the collection, evident in the sea and earth palette, washed finishes, organic prints and nature-inspired materials like shell sequins, granular knits, and handmade floral applique in raw edge chiffon.
Inspired by our Founder & Creative Director’s principles on nature, sustainability, and environmental reverence, ‘Human Nature’ prioritizes responsible fabric choices. The materials range from LENZING™ ECOVERO™ certified viscose, cotton, wool blends and our signature ‘Crush’ Naia™ certified 100% acetate. The outcome is a collection that exudes rich, natural sensuality and a subtle, soft look, capturing the longing for natural escapes in these unusual times. It reflects a profound respect for both human and natural environments, which is a core value of the brand.
"This collection is an exploration of balance—where the organic meets the man-made in a dialogue of texture, form, and purpose. I wanted to create pieces that feel intrinsically connected to nature yet undeniably modern, where craftsmanship and sustainability coexist effortlessly. Through washed finishes, intricate handwork, and consciously sourced fabrics, we’re embracing the beauty of imperfection and the evolution of materials. ‘Human Nature’ is about honoring the raw, the refined, and the spaces in between—where fashion becomes a reflection of the world around us."
