This publication is also available in: Français Deutsch Italiano Español English (US)

A summer 2025 filled with light, refinement, and individual expression. While outfits become lighter and flirt with transparency, accessories emerge as key pieces, designed to capture attention while highlighting a certain idea of style: precise, cultured, and without excess. Spotted on the runways of the most prestigious houses, they define a season where luxury is whispered, sensed, and above all, worn with confidence.

The Return of Precious Detail

At a time when minimalism evolves into a form of subtle sophistication, detail becomes essential again. At Bottega Veneta, a tactile and intelligent luxury aesthetic is cultivated: woven leather bags are reimagined in sculptural formats, while patinated gold jewelry appears in rigid necklaces or rounded earrings, worn directly on the skin. Accessories thus merge utility and form, becoming portable architectural volumes.
At Chanel, the pearl is reinvented, embedded in tweed sandals or suspended from mini rigid bags, recalling Gabrielle’s heritage without ever falling into repetition. These accessories tell a story of detail that does not seek to immediately seduce but aims to assert itself through precision.

Sculptural Sunglasses and Graphic Allure

The sunglasses of the season create a silhouette more assured than ever. At Balenciaga, giant frames play with distorted proportions. The visual effect is almost cybernetic, in tune with a neo-futuristic aesthetic. In contrast, Miu Miu draws from the Y2K spirit to revisit the butterfly glasses: the frame is fine, the lenses slightly tinted, giving the gaze an ironic softness. Worn with understated outfits, these glasses become stylistic impact points.

Bold Jewelry: Between Precious Minimalism and Controlled Opulence

This season, jewelry refuses gratuitous ornamentation. At Saint Laurent, necklaces take the form of sharp geometric lines, gilded in matte gold, worn directly on the skin. The effect is raw, almost architectural. At Dior, the jewelry adopts an aesthetic inspired by mythology, where the pearl, the house’s emblematic signature, is reinvented. It appears pierced by golden arrows, evoking a warrior-like and sophisticated femininity. The matte metal contrasts with the pearlescent shine, creating a look that is both sculptural and spiritual. These strong pieces, worn alone or in pairs, convey a bold vision of contemporary elegance.

The Summer Bag: An Object of Style and Status

The bag is no longer just a container: it crystallizes the attitude of a silhouette. Fendi offers a mini, rigid version, resembling a precious trunk, while Jacquemus plays with natural materials featuring structured raffia bags, subtly logoed. The oversized chains spotted at Givenchy add tension between the organic and the industrial. Some silhouettes require nothing more than a Louis Vuitton bag to assert their distinction.

Architectural Sandals and Sophisticated Mules

Summer 2025 celebrates the foot as a point of tension between nature and sophistication. At Gianvito Rossi, lines are maximally lightened, through thin, crisscross sandals designed like a second skin. The materials are almost raw, with supple leathers in sand, terracotta, or ivory tones, inspired by the earth and elements. Nothing is left to chance: every curve embraces the body’s movement in a subtle sensuality. At The Row, minimalism is extreme: a thin strap, a perfect arch, nothing superfluous. Amina Muaddi, true to her flamboyant aesthetic, adorns her iconic flare heels with an iridescent gradient, perfect for enhancing sun-kissed skin. These shoes carve a path between assured comfort and graphic elegance.

Final Touch: Accessories as Signs of Distinction

Ultimately, it is not the clothes that make the style: it is the details that reveal it. In 2025, the accessory is more than a complement: it is a code, a silent declaration of intent. Through it, one recognizes a culture of fashion, an informed eye, a certain slowness of gaze. Because in a world of visual saturation, it is the discreet signs that make all the difference.
