TOP FASHION TRENDS FOR PRE-FALL 2025

Suede has been on the rise for several seasons. Its presence in early Miu Miu collections paved the way for a renewed love for natural textures and tones. With its soft touch and matte finish, suede is both elegant and organic. As a material, it resists domestication: it absorbs rather than reflects light, adds depth to any look, and offers a timeless quality to every wardrobe. Miu Miu, Prada, Loewe, Saint Laurent and Alaïa all present standout suede pieces.

In bags, jackets, coats, blazers and shoes, suede has a ritual, almost primal allure, one that connects to artisanal tradition and to a vision of fashion rooted in the sensory. In the transition toward autumn, suede becomes the ideal surface for new silhouettes. Its secret lies in versatility, able to converse with both lightweight seasonal fabrics and the wool knits of winter. As part of the brown-tones trend (and if it’s suede, even better), it evolves through a palette that carries seamlessly from summer into fall.

The sporty feel is no longer a simple casual touch, it has evolved into a fully formed aesthetic code. This isn’t about high-low mixes (like hoodies and tailored coats), but about reinterpreting the energy and lightness of sport as a stylistic gesture. All with a strong ‘80s influence. Sacai, Acne Studios, Jacquemus, Loewe, Prada and The Row each offer their take on this direction.

Clean lines, technical fabrics and functional silhouettes are blended with formal pieces like loafers or pleated trousers, creating a deliberate contrast. The sporty aesthetic is all about movement and freedom. For pre-fall, it returns with a more elegant, refined energy.

It never truly goes out of style, but this season, camel is having a moment. It is perhaps the most essential tone in the contemporary wardrobe. This neutral, warm, earthy hue has transcended decades, dating back to the iconic Max Mara coats, and has become a symbol of permanence. Its presence elevates almost any look with understated elegance. In the transition to fall, camel becomes like a second skin.

Its strength lies in its adaptability, appearing in straight silhouettes, wrap coats, or strong-shouldered tailoring. Prada, Max Mara, Loewe, Jacquemus, Jil Sander and Bottega Veneta all present their own interpretation of the tone. It functions as a cultural code, one that bridges both modernity and sartorial tradition. Its power is in its continuity, and its true timelessness.

The leather jacket remains an emblem of rebellion and effortless French style. From rock’n’roll to the ‘80s movida to off-duty model looks, the leather jacket has continuously reinvented itself as a symbol of now. With or without shoulder pads, long or cropped, smooth or textured, double-breasted or zippered, its power lies in duality: tough and practical, yet rich in cultural meaning across decades and subcultures.

Leather has always expressed independence and strength, but also luxury and refinement. In pre-fall, the jacket is reimagined with cleaner cuts, lighter zippers and broader volumes. One could say that Loewe, with its voluminous silhouettes, and Saint Laurent, with its sharply tailored designs, have sparked a new wave of leather shapes. Acne Studios, Lemaire, Prada, Loewe, Bottega Veneta, Miu Miu, Gucci... all have their eyes on the enduring coolness of the perfect leather jacket.

In 2023 it was cherry red. This year, red returns not just as an accent, but as a bold statement. It’s the colour of intensity and energy, capable of commanding attention and amplifying personal magnetism. Often recommended for first dates or important events, red enhances confidence like few other shades. In the pre-fall wardrobe, red dominates across dresses, knits, polos, shoes, bags and wallets. Max Mara and Victoria Beckham lead this season’s red palette, joined by several other labels.

Its strength lies in contrast: like the burnt rust of autumn leaves, it turns dramatic when paired with black; with earthy tones, it becomes warmer and more harmonious; with greys, it adopts a modern, urban attitude. Red speaks its own language, a universal code of passion, vitality and confidence.
