Isabel Marant Resort 2025
Isabel Marant has been the reigning queen of Parisian boho since she launched her brand some 30 years ago. For spring, she’s suggesting a revival complete with tassels, crochet, fringed scarves, and chunky claw pendants. Nothing too literal, though. She’s calling her latest take “modernized Marrakesh.”
“It’s about bringing back a wardrobe that’s not too complicated and yet more sophisticated,” she explained in her showroom fresh off opening a new flagship in Beijing. “Cool luxury is always minimal, easy, and chic with just the right dose of craftiness.”
Contrasts of texture take pride of place: English eyelet swings with pompoms, ikat is rendered in lurex, velvet has lavish bead embroidery. A soft palette centers on soft écru, beige, brown, and black, with the occasional shot of hot red, or a busy print, such as a short-sleeved top and shorts in turquoise python or a berry-and-ecru print on a gathered off-the-shoulder dress. A spangly black lurex top with cut-out details brought femininity to relaxed leather trousers anchored by a statement belt. The slouchy, chain-trimmed Edric low boots were classic Marant: whether paired with lingerie-inspired dresses, denim or leather, these statement boots have attitude to burn.
