agenda

FROM THE RUNWAY Petal to the METAL • Designers fancy everything with a side of chintz this season. Look to Prada, Loewe, Acne Studios and Chloé for how to wear once-fusty florals in a modern way. Play with colours, textures and souped-up prints – make it as loud as you can.

INTRODUCING Nadine MOS • The designer Nadine Mosallam has perfected lo-fi sensuality

IN CONVERSATION Pharrell WILLIAMS • To mark his new collaboration with Moët & Chandon, ELLE talks to the musician and Louis Vuitton creative director about collective spirit, optimism and the power of celebration

STREET STYLE ENTER the archive • A new call to arms has the fashion set hooked, as revisiting It bags of old becomes the season’s essential pastime, whether it’s a contemporary reissue or a rediscovered favourite. Beg, borrow and style enduring shapes, such as Louis Vuitton’s Speedy, Dior’s Lady Dior or Chanel’s 2.55. It’s time to make a move towards the classics – they’re right on right now.

THREADS OF CHANGE Enduring LOVE • Caring for your clothes well is vital for a long-lasting wardrobe – and now, thanks to a fresh wave of chic speciality brands, it has never been easier, says Augustine Hammond

THE MEMO The cast of 2025 • Casting directors have reached the height of power. From celebrity cameos to the return of waifs, the SS25 season was full of impassioned debate about the ever-changing faces and bodies on the runway that are defining a new era of fashion

The FACES to watch for SS25 • Keep an eye out – these burgeoning talents made their mark on the catwalk this season

IF YOU TRY ONE THING… Laced UP • Delicates find a new edge this season, as lace is once again the fabric du jour on red carpets and runways. Be inspired by the past – looking back to legendary looks from cinema, or the party dresses that defined the Nineties – but add a thoroughly modern spin. Pair a black-lace dress with sleek brogues, layering up sheer materials or reaching for cut-out styles loaded with attitude. For SS25, the pretty has become provocative.
