Fashion
This New Year’s Eve, it’s all about movement, energy, and unapologetic presence.
From fluttering fringe to flowing silks, richly embroidered textures, and accessories that sway and catch the light, your wardrobe should mirror the spirit of the Year of the Horse which is fearless, free, and full of motion. Think pieces that play with volume, texture, and rhythm, turning every step into a statement and every gesture into style.
Fashion in 2025 has been a year of reflection, reinvention, and an unapologetic embrace of individuality. As seen on the SS26 runways, designers have experimented boldly with silhouettes, textures, and heritage, yet the underlying ethos has remained consistent: clothing is no longer just decoration, but an extension of identity and a celebration of the body it inhabits. From sculptural tailoring to flowing dresses that sway with movement, the body has become the canvas upon which fashion tells its story, emphasizing confidence, comfort, and presence.
Bottega Veneta: Fluid Minimalism with Impact
Sleek silhouettes in luxe leathers and flowing fabrics created a sense of effortless movement, proving that minimalism can be dynamic and striking. Details like fringe, oversized folds, and tactile textures made each piece feel alive as the model moved.
Chanel: Embellished Heritage in Motion
Classic tweeds and structured jackets were reimagined with metallic threads, delicate embroidery, and playful fringe. Chanel’s runway celebrated the body through layering and tailoring that enhanced motion, turning tradition into wearable spectacle.
Loewe: Artistry Meets Kinetic Fashion
Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez’s vision transformed garments into sculptural statements, with exaggerated sleeves, draped forms, and textural experimentation. The emphasis on pieces that sway, fold, and interact with light perfectly embodies fashion that moves with you.
Trends have encircled concepts of tactility and emotion, with embroidery, fringe, and mixed textures taking centre stage, while color narratives have shifted toward light, purity, and clarity, culminating in the announcement of white as Pantone’s Colour of 2026 which is a nod to renewal, optimism, and the power of clean, expressive design. Accessories and statement pieces have been no less impactful, turning small details into gestures that amplify individuality.
Above all, 2025 has underscored that fashion is not about following trends blindly, but about creating a dialogue between self-expression, heritage, and the forward motion of culture that sets the stage for 2026, where simplicity, body-conscious design, and bold, thoughtful styling converge.
