A Closer Look at Ferragamo’s Spring/Summer 2025 Collection


When a designer is appointed to a luxury house, they usually fluctuate between two options. They either choose to move far from the house’s original identity and make it entirely their own, or fully lean into what has been built throughout the past. Since taking the helm at Ferragamo two years ago, Maximillian Davis has managed to appease both options with perfect harmony, and by doing so, has cemented the brand as one of the highly-anticipated of the season. “I’ve always incorporated different historic eras in my work—eras which feel relatable to me and my heritage,” says Davis in the show notes, “At Ferragamo, I’ve sought out similarities—and the beauty of this brand is that there are so many different stories you can relate to. Every shoe has a meaning behind it. Every shoe has a story.”

When it comes to powerful tailoring, Davis is a master at the craft, but this spring collection proved that he also has a penchant for more delicate silhouettes. Midi dresses were pleated on the body like Greek sculptures. Mini-dresses were cut with asymmetrical necklines to look sexy without an overdose of effort. Capelike dresses practically floated down the runway, and trench coats were contorted with crinkles to look lighter than air. Of course, the designer also made sure to include his usual dose of punchy colors by way of tonal blue and red looks, creating a visually satisfying juxtaposition. And to go along with every look: the supple leather handbags we’ve come to know and love from Ferragamo were reimagined with feathers, laser cut-outs, and made oversized, most of which were held as clutches as the models paraded down the cream-colored runway.
