The Blonds Fall/Winter 2025

New York Fashion Week witnessed an electrifying spectacle as The Blonds unveiled their Fall/Winter 2025 collection at the iconic FIDI Bank Hall. Known for their unapologetic opulence, the design duo delivered yet another dazzling display of theatrical fashion, blending Old Hollywood glamour with a contemporary, rebellious edge.

This season, The Blonds channeled the allure of the silver screen, drawing inspiration from the cinematic worlds of Blade Runner and Sunset Boulevard, seamlessly merging vintage decadence with futuristic fantasy. The collection unfolds in two acts: City Lights and Beach Nights.

The first segment, City Lights, presents a refined yet daring urban aesthetic. Sleek cocktail dresses adorned with crystal embellishments, structured corsets, and daring cutouts define this portion of the collection. Evoking the elegance of Hollywood’s golden age, these pieces shimmer with confidence and power, tailored for the modern It Girl, model, actress, showgirl, or even jewel thief.

Transitioning into Beach Nights, the collection takes a sultry turn with vibrant hues, metallic fabrics, and fluid silhouettes perfect for a jet-setting lifestyle. Picture a woman leaving the bustling city behind, emerging on the shores of Ibiza for an extravagant night under the stars. These bold, unapologetic pieces drip in luxury, tailored for those who embrace extravagance without seasonal constraints.

As always, beauty played an integral role in The Blonds’ storytelling. Hair, nails, and makeup reflected the duality of the collection, balancing sharp, structured aesthetics with fluid, dreamlike elements. David Blond highlighted escapism and empowerment as key inspirations: “Our story started with cinema… but then we asked ourselves: Who is this modern woman? What does she do? What is she like? We drew from icons like Elizabeth Taylor and other legendary collectors of jewelry—women who exude confidence and glamour.”

A highlight of the evening was the return of Philippe Blond to the runway, opening the show in a striking ensemble inspired by an archival treatment from The Blonds’ early collections. Featuring their signature intricate embroidery and couture detailing, this look was a masterful homage to their roots while embracing fashion’s future.

With their latest collection, The Blonds continue to push glamour’s boundaries, merging nostalgia with a forward-thinking aesthetic. The result? A fearless celebration of individuality and self-expression—proving, once again, that The Blonds don’t just create fashion, they craft fantasy.

In the world of The Blonds, one thing remains certain: their woman never gets mad—she gets everything.
