On February 8, 2025, The Blonds electrified New York Fashion Week with a theatrical runway show at FIDI Bank Hall, transforming the historic venue into a stage for unapologetic glamour. Fusing Old Hollywood opulence with New York’s rebellious spirit, the Fall/Winter 2025 collection celebrated glitz, drama, and high-glamour excess.
This season, The Blonds unveiled a two-part collection inspired by the Global Glamazon—a woman who commands attention wherever she goes.
A masterclass in sophisticated seduction, featuring crystal-encrusted corsets, sleek cocktail dresses, and daring cutouts reminiscent of silver-screen sirens.
A bold departure into sultry, high-shine ensembles, with shimmering metallics, plunging silhouettes, and jewel-toned hues designed for a night under the stars.
The collection was nothing short of cinematic, with teal feathers cascading down silhouettes and bijoux-studded corsetry sculpting the body, reaffirming The Blonds’ signature commitment to theatrical couture with an edge.
The front row was a who’s who of fashion, music, and nightlife, with appearances by Crystal Waters, Countess Luann de Lesseps, Jillian Hervey, Diane Brill, Susanne Bartsch, Aquaria, Kandy Muse, Jay Manuel, and Larsen Thompson.
Following the show, guests continued the celebration of high-glamour excess at an exclusive afterparty at Two Fifteen at PUBLIC.
Bringing The Blonds’ vision to life was an all-star team of beauty and fashion creatives:
Founded by Phillipe Blond and David Blond, The Blonds have become NYFW’s ultimate provocateurs, crafting high-octane couture that fuses music, film, and art into bold, one-of-a-kind fashion statements. With their signature rebellious twist, The Blonds continue to push boundaries, celebrating self-expression through extravagant embellishment and fearless silhouettes.
