Rabanne Pre-Fall 2025 / PF25 at Paris Fashion entitled Atlantic Allusions, it’s present a Pre-collection and Beachwear.
Like an escape to the coast, where sky and sea deliver endless compositions that spark the imagination, these latest collections / PF25 / Pre-Fall 2025 from Rabanne embrace the ease of dressing in the present. Established clothing archetypes that define cultural moments, often anchored in time, resurface with a lightness that feels carefree, as rustic and refined elements recombine according to Julien Dossena’s intuitive approach.
Allusions to the Atlantic permeate Rabanne Pre-Fall 2025, which exudes a laid-back attitude through looks that appear at once freshly considered and lived in. Channeling a lifestyle more than a nautical aesthetic, sophisticated and casual pieces converge in unexpected compositions and with inspired design details. Everything that new is also familiar: an outdoorsy jacket in supple cognac leather worn with aged jeans; a yellow rain parka, in collaboration produced by Guy Cotten with wide corduroys and a signature pierced tee in sailor stripes; a creased bottle green nylon bomber with a floral top and leather trousers; ladylike cardigans over grunge lace and floral dresses; a duffle coat with XL rope toggles over a salt-and-pepper textured jersey wrap skirt; a lime green twinset and a houndstooth pleated skirt.
Where a sky blue floral patterned dress is an homage to Kurt Cobain, other ensembles riff on a mumsy wardrobe. Silhouettes take shape from the ’70s while returning to the de-structured layers defined by the Spring runway show. Movement and materials co-exist, whether a semi-sheer embroidered dress worn over a black swimsuit body, metal fringes placed on the bias, or blousy, draped dresses covered in silver or green micro sequins. Hybrid comfiness plays a part, too, from a bathrobe coat in brushed wool to the striped sailor collar hoodie styled with a pouch-front miniskirt.
Shifting to the Rabanne Beachwear brings breezy sensuality: poplin looks printed with a boating motif, striped pieces in spongy towel fabric, marinières reworked as baby tees. White denim shorts and jeans are incrusted with geometric crochet while swirling cutouts create new jersey shapes. Surfaces glisten and shine with extra touches of animation such as a blazing sunset is transposed to a T-shirt covered in transparent sequins; metal mesh pareos printed like foulards; and an under-the-sea assemblage. Water options offer different degrees of exposure, from a streamlined black two-piece enhanced with utility clips to wetsuit separates with UV protection.
Throughout, accessories of Rabanne Pre-Fall 2025 build upon Rabanne signatures, whether new wavy links and fine chains that drape along the skin to nautilus earrings revisited from the archives.
