Akris Fall/Winter 2025 / FW25 at Paris Fashion Week

It’s a story of clarity, of euphoria, of blue – blue in nature, blue in spaces, blue in artworks, just blue. Of gravitas and sensation – in the original sense of the word*. (*sensation, which comes from the Medieval Latin sēnsātiō, meaning perception through the senses)

Akris FW25 / Fall/Winter 2025 captures the blue hour – a moment when day and night cross fleetingly, held in tension. Here, everything shifts. An exchange of AM and PM codes, expressed through form and fabrication, seen in tailored pants taking shape with fluid panels or the half-pleated skirt, which is both serene and spontaneous. Tailored dresses and skirt suits blend substance and shape, serving as 24-hour solutions.

Details of Akris Fall/Winter 2025 / FW25, The jacket and coat, signatures of Albert’s universe, are not just markers of presence but symbols of transition: an overcoat reimagined in sequins, button-up jackets with wispy feathers, the short Duo trench in ottoman silk. There, fabrics are not just material but a message – for the woman who does not compromise. Embracing the calm and soft of dusk, textures blur – a knitted wool hoodie and brushed cashmere cape resemble shearling, yet they are not. Wool double-face plaid and plush maxi cord are imbued with a blanket-like sensibility. Taffeta ribbons and airy feathers evolve with movement, continuously changing as they follow the body – right to the next party. Cyanotype prints appear in flashes, as does the new Alice handbag in Akris’ DNA of horsehair.

Alyson’s Cyanotype Print “Alyson’s cyanotype conveys a deep, multilayered representation of blue,” Albert states. Cyanotype, also known as blueprint or Blaupause,is derived from the Greek word κύανος (kyanos – cyan), meaning ‘dark blue impression.’ Cyanotypes, once used for architectural and scientific drafts, are created by treating paper with an iron-salt solution and exposing it to UV light, which causes the pigment Prussian blue to form.

Akris collaboration with Alyson Shotz, Alyson Shotz is an American artist renowned for sculptures that subvert their own physicality to explore the phenomenological experience of space, gravity, light, and matter. Her work is held in collections such as the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao, the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington, D.C., and the Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, among others.
