JWANDERSON WOMEN'S SPRING SUMMER 2025 SHOW

Setting strict boundaries as a liberating act: a design quest rooted in the materiality of what clothing is made for, in a reduced library of materials. One fabric, silk satin; one yarn for knitwear, cashmere; one kind of leather, calf; one type of embroidery, sequins; lace as the only decoration. From such restrictive agenda an exploration into modern prettiness ensues. Zooming in, and zooming out, macro plays off with micro, done with undone. Knit stitches became giant weaving; a bow inflates to enormous proportions; a flap gets askew and draws the shape of a skirt; a blanket is draped into a dress; a skirt is perfectly round, and suspended. Surface treatment and embellishment. Lace runs down the V of architectural flappers. An essay on design is printed on a sheath dress, or sliced and mixed with argyle on a top. In a timewarp of sorts, allover argyle motifs flash back to early JW Anderson collections. Skintight and voluminous; sculptural and slender. All of it on flat boots falling askew on the ankles, and the Loafer bag at hand.
