Leonard Paris Jetted Off to Greece for Spring 2025

As he continues his travels, Georg Lux jetted off to Greece for summer, its temples, white walls, blue roofs and deep blue seas heavily informing his color palette and motifs as he continued on a separate journey — that of updating Leonard for a more contemporary audience.

While the collection remained distinctly on-brand, there were fewer prints in the lineup this season, to better highlight those he did employ, Lux explained. He played with swathes of cerulean blue and white, as well as black, on ’60s-inspired silhouettes.

Large ceramic discs like outsized jewelry on straps and belts punctuated the lines of plain jersey dresses, while a selection of looks in off-white terrycloth featuring black patterned grosgrain details were cute additions to the resort-friendly collection. Shirtdresses were another novelty, offering a new roomy silhouette alongside the label’s extensive selection of vaporous caftans.

Die-hard Leonard fans could still find what they were looking for in the geometric patterns inspired by ceramic tiles and frieze details, or in archival florals, in which a giant poppy was the core motif this season. Offered in a range of colorways, the printed silhouettes ran the gamut from shift-collared playsuits to halter dresses, with plenty in between. On the opening look, a patterned mini-suit was embroidered with transparent sequins.

A-line shift dresses and such were a nod to Elizabeth Taylor in Joseph Lausay’s “Boom,” Lux said, as were the headscarves with which he styled the looks — a common feature on several Paris runways this season. One shift had cute appliqué floral placements, while shirt-collared playsuits in vibrant patterns also nodded to that era.
