The duo blended traditional menswear elements with contemporary streetwear influences, creating a dynamic range of looks. Artisanal denim, tailored suits, and Japanese-inspired silhouettes showcased their deep appreciation for craftsmanship and cultural exchange. Vibrant prints and bold accessories added a playful edge to the otherwise polished collection. Pharrell and Nigo’s collaboration reflected their ability to honor Louis Vuitton’s legacy while injecting their own creative flair, making this a standout moment of the season.</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>Hermès</strong></div><div><br/><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/5D9CU8_q4Pc?si=MDpbO-aicUzvyzIq" title="YouTube video player" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>Hermès stayed true to its reputation for understated luxury with a collection that celebrated timeless elegance. Clean lines, muted color palettes, and exquisite materials like buttery leather and fine wool defined the runway.

Exaggerated military-inspired silhouettes, deconstructed tailoring, and chaotic prints set a rebellious tone. Slogans like “No War” and dark hues of black, khaki, and red emphasized the anti-war message. Combat boots and distorted uniforms added to the militaristic theme, while Kawakubo’s avant-garde approach turned the collection into a powerful commentary on peace and resistance.</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>Kenzo</strong></div><div><br/><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/1yeq1_fj-pM?si=3mb60x8QE6jBFbOF" title="YouTube video player" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>Nigo, as Kenzo’s artistic director, continued to explore the brand’s Japanese roots while infusing his streetwear expertise. The collection combined relaxed tailoring with bold prints, including traditional floral motifs and abstract graphics. Knitwear took center stage, featuring intricate patterns and oversized silhouettes that felt both cozy and modern. The show emphasized wearability without sacrificing creativity, demonstrating Nigo’s skill in balancing heritage and innovation.</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>Prada</strong></div><div><br/><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/yYI9MiM1dtk?si=jiPTjUh2ngVdVnJV" title="YouTube video player" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><p>Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons delivered a bold, eclectic collection that defied traditional menswear norms. The Fall/Winter 2025 runway showcased an unpredictable mix of Western-inspired boots, oversized fur coats, plaid robes, mechanic-style jackets, and skin-tight trousers. Vibrant colors and unconventional layering created an energetic, almost chaotic aesthetic that celebrated individuality and spontaneity. The collection felt instinctual and unfiltered, offering a refreshing take on menswear that encouraged personal expression. Prada’s willingness to push boundaries while maintaining its signature sophistication left a lasting impression.</p>
