Haute Couture Week Trend Predictions

There’s plenty to talk about when haute couture houses present their new collections during the crème de la crème of the fashion calendar, Paris Haute Couture Week. It was Jacquemus—not a traditional Haute Couture house—that took the cake with its early reveal of their Fall/Winter 2025 collection. Simon Porte Jacquemus and Daniel Roseberry of Schiaparelli brought their bold visions to life, while Dior delivered their signature refinement and artistry.

Without further ado- here’s a breakdown of key trends to watch in the coming seasons:

Color Trends:

Mixing Prints: Jacquemus paired black-and-white zebra with brown-and-black zebra, while also mixing in python and crocodile prints for a fresh take on contrast styling.
Butter Yellow: From Schiaparelli’s golden hues to Jacquemus’ soft accents, butter yellow remains the color of the season. For a cutting-edge look, pair it with zebra prints, python patterns, or maroon accents.
Butterscotch and Suede: A timeless combination, this earthy palette exudes sophistication.
Bright Reds: Vibrant, bright red tones popped up across collections, from Chanel’s silk accents to Jacquemus’ crocodile belts.
Black-and-White Color Blocking: From stripes to polka dots, this classic pairing dominated silhouettes across the runways.

Silhouette Highlights:

Mid-Century Meets Modern: Jacquemus reimagined 1950s glamour with hourglass dresses and sculptural jackets, blending a taste of the past with a fresh take on the present.
Structured and Sculptural Shapes: S-shaped jackets and sharp hip blades at Schiaparelli emphasized the brand's architectural approach.
A-Line with a Punk Twist: Dior’s A-line shapes, adorned with ruffles, lace, and a touch of punk rock flair, blended youthful defiance with delicate femininity.

Material Must-Haves:

Sheer Fabrics: Delicate, see-through materials reigned supreme, from Dior’s sheer dresses to Jacquemus’s see-through oversized jacket.
From Fur to Feathers: From feather-adorned Jacquemus skirts to punk-inspired mohawks at Dior, feathers add texture and whimsy.

Accessories to Watch:

Trompe l'Oeil Bags: Jacquemus toyed with playful, surreal accessories, including basketball-inspired totes. Tuck slouchy bags under your arm for a modern take on a laid back look.
Bold Prints: Add panache to your modern minimalist style with bold accent pieces like calf hair mules, zebra print bags, and crocodile belts and gloves.

Take It From The Boys

Saint Laurent has done it again. Their menswear collections are consistently nothing short of exquisite, and this latest offering is no exception. Unveiled at the courtyard of the Saint Laurent headquarters, Anthony Vacarello exuded Patrick Bateman-esque sophistication with a playful, contemporary twist on his designs. Everything from the gothic choral music, the candlelit setting, to the impeccably sharp yet laid back tailoring and bold statement pieces are a masterclass in modern masculinity. If there's one thing we can all take away from this collection, it’s the effortless cool that diffuses from each look. Here's what we're stealing from the boys.
