A tightly edited palette demarcates the Resort 25 collections, with watercolour pastels like soft tea rose and pistachio working alongside full-bodied darks – think Malbec, spicy cinnamon and classic navy, accented with a pop of bright Chartreuse.

The Resort 25 fabric directions are an evolving checklist of trends highlighted in our A/W 24 Catwalks Round-Up, with a focus on leather, tweed and fur contrasted with new lace treatments and the latest denim treatments.

From the charm of simple daisy motifs to familiar skin patterns and the new florals which celebrate a whole spectrum of blues, the key print and pattern directions for Resort 25 are eminently commercial for all levels of the market.

Fashion’s recent mood for quiet luxury has evolved into a new level of sophistication which we see running through the latest Resort collections, giving the simplest items a refined sense of modern elegance.

Resort collections are not about new trend direction; they’re more about reinvigorating and subtly transforming familiar key items with new detailing, a change of fabric or season-ready colour, as seen in this must-have checklist for the first drop of the season ahead.    

Designers are backing time-tested footwear favourites for Resort 25 – think updates on the perennial pump, blocked-heeled boots and humble flip-flops – while in the accessories department, they similarly play safe with a focus on classic black sunglasses and supersized soft tote bags.
