In an insightful discussion with Co’s Stephanie Danan, she elaborated on the spring collection’s theme, encapsulating the concepts of “fluidity” and the “unexpected blend of sportswear with evening attire.” Danan noted, “As we curated the collection alongside the styling and chosen location, we embodied an essence of escapism. It’s about living in a bubble, tuning out the external noise regarding fashion, trends, and the world around us.”
Through this vision, she effectively filtered the chaos, presenting a minimalist collection that celebrates essential garments. Highlights included a lightweight maxi knit “T-shirt” dress, which she and her stylist and collaborator, Samuel Drira, creatively layered over a linen suit, as well as fringed separates styled as a looped shawl around the shoulders. The collection boasted lightweight, garment-dyed poplin separates—a sophisticated trench coat, a classic button-down shirt, and tailored narrow trousers. Among the standout pieces was a uniquely crafted leather “poet blouse” jacket, alongside a selection of understated, airy gowns. One particular gown made of devoré velvet was notably styled backwards and layered with “bunches of skirts underneath” to enhance its allure.
Color played a supporting role in this collection, with a palette of whites, blacks, and muted military greens dominating the landscape—everything was designed to be worn interchangeably. Instead of conventional high/low dressing or contrasting theories, the collection focused on a liberating concept: Why not wear everything you adore? “During our fittings with Samuel and the design team, we decided to embrace a radical approach,” Danan explained, reflecting on a previous series of ‘no’s’ that outlined rejected concepts. “We are declaring, ‘this is our identity. This encapsulates who we are and what we believe you will cherish from our label.’”
