Suiting Reimagined

Tailoring is timeless, but the design visions of the Resort 2025 season were abound with fresh takes and reconstructive perspectives on classic suiting. Business wear-inspired looks maybe seem unexpected during a season characterized by more breezy expectations of luxury-beach-bluc-ready looks, but these collections have us ready to rework our itineraries for maximum class.

Ranging from tuxedo-inspired dresses to riffs on the classic suit jacket and skirt, women’s business-casual was given modern sartorial twists across a multiplicity of volumes and silhouettes ranging from structured and fitted to roomy and slouchy.

At Louis Vuitton, Nicolas Ghesquière channeled Gaudí to create suiting looks with sculptural surrealism. Coperni leaned into asymmetry. Max Mara found in tailoring a new fluidity, while sister brand Sportmax injected an angular edge into 80s pinstripe suits. Zimmermann played with the dichotomy of masculine and feminine by combining strong suiting and corsetry. Evoking an unexpected minimalism, Dsquared2 boldly reclaimed the tuxedo.
