Courrèges Fall Winter 2025 Collection
Fashion has the power to capture an instant, to immortalize emotions and to transform clothing into a cultural statement. For his Fall-Winter 2025-2026 collection, Nicolas Di Felice took this concept a step further, turning his show for Courrèges into an immersive spectacle where color, movement and celebration fused into a symphony of ethereal and vibrant forms.
The Carreau du Temple, bathed in natural light, was transformed into a living canvas thanks to Rémy Brière’s set design: a cloud of confetti in metallic hues floated in the air throughout the presentation, defying gravity and catching the eye of every spectator. A visual gesture that not only dazzled, but encapsulated the very essence of the collection: an ode to joy, community and the desire to transcend the boundaries of time and aesthetics.
Inspired by Dan Colen’s confetti paintings, Di Felice took the idea of streamers and turned it into a masterful design proposition. A simple rectangle of fabric, cleverly wrapped around the body, gave life to dresses that defy stillness, skirts that seem to hang in mid-air, and tunics turned into flowing parkas. The tailoring, marked by precise cuts and unexpected angles, reaffirms the designer’s ability to play with structure without losing the sensuality inherent to his vision.
Although references to André Courrèges’ 1960s spatial minimalism are still present, Di Felice’s proposal moves away from geometric rigidity and opts for a more instinctive and uninhibited femininity. Scarf ribbons, cleverly secured to move with the body, and ostrich feather tops, which exude subtle drama, are proof that modernity is not at odds with poetry.
At a time when fashion tends to look at itself for answers, Courrèges under the direction of Di Felice reminds us that clothes not only dress, but create worlds. And in this world, night, music and freedom are the protagonists.
