9 Trends From the Resort and Early Spring 2025 Collections

9 trends from resort and early spring 2025
9 Trends From Resort and Early Spring 2025Collage by Sarah Olivieri

This season’s Resort collections took place against a wide range of backdrops, from Louis Vuitton’s show in a Barcelona park designed by architect Antoni Gaudi to Balenciaga’s runway against the cityscape of Shanghai. Dior held a presentation amid the rolling hills of Scotland, while Chanel took place in the seaside French town of Marseille.

And the ideas presented were just as diverse. Alessandro Michele dropped his debut collection for Valentino in the middle of men’s fashion week in Milan, showcasing a colorful mix of fabrics, prints, textures, ribbons, and ruffles that felt maximalist in the best possible way. Chimena Kamali offered the perfect take on bohemian style along with a high-waisted jean at Chloe. Sabato Sarno went fringe-y with denim at Gucci.

There were ’60s mod minis at both Gucci and Prada, and a plentitude of plaid at Dior and Rabanne. Olympic fever was coming on strong in the sporty vibes at Wales Bonner and the varsity stripes at Coperni, and The Row made the strongest argument yet for the ’90s trend of wearing a lace-trimmed slip over pants. Below, some of the key looks and moments.

It's all about the minis and sheath dresses for a swinging ’60s look, with pops of pastels throughout.
