MAX MARA SS25 COLLECTION IS THE EPITOME OF SOPHISTICATION
Right when we thought that the ‘office siren’ and ‘quiet luxury’ trends where out of breath, Max Mara surprises us with a collection to die for. Sleek and chic, the Spring/Summer 2025 runway presentation is the embodiment of a clean, serious look. Dedicated to scientists and mathematicians that help us navigate this messy world and enlighten the world’s darkest secrets for our greatest pleasure, Max Mara channel the spirit of pioneer women from history, like antic mathematician and philosopher Hypatia. So take out your book and pencils, because Max Mara is going to give you a fashion lesson right in time for back to school.
Geometry leads the way throughout the whole collection, this mystical art that justifies the universe’s mysteries. Tailoring and trench coats take a trigonometric turn, showcasing box-fresh cottons in neutral tones. Lines are sharp and precise, while still allowing movement and breathing, a master-move only possible thanks to exact science. Pencil skirts paired with elegant blouses or open shirt for a more relaxed look are declined in grey, white, sand and brown , very office appropriate. Asymmetric draped gowns take a modern twist on Hypatia’s wardrobe and make the perfect evening wear if you are too cool to dress up but still want to be the center of attention.
The pristine silhouettes strut down the runway, something reveling a bit of skin for a sensual touch, while blazers define the allure with a square shoulder. The fabrics composing the garments are nothing short of fabulous, gabardines, drills, delicate silk and high quality denim lend themselves to engineering. Even the modest poplin shirt is elevated to the rank of design statement, the perfection of its construction being undeniable. Open sandals reminiscent of a Greek Antiquity high in style are the perfect additions to the outfits, stating that summer in the city is the place to be. Maybe we will take our rectangular glasses out of the drawer for one more season, because we can never refuse anything to Max Mara.
