Maximillian Davis’ 7th Ferragamo Collection

For his seventh season with Ferragamo, Central Saint Martins alum Maximilian Davis revisits the brand’s roots, drawing inspiration from its founding year, 1920. The collection features shawl colors, ties tucked into waistbands, bubble-hemmed skirts with silk-lined bodices, double-breasted suit jackets, gowns cinched at the hem, and oversized wool coats.

Tokyo James’ show Harmony explored the balance of opposing forces, reflecting his own identity as a British-Nigerian. Through texture and shape, he examined how contrast can coexist in harmony. A standout look featured a sheer button-up shirt paired with black leather panels and orange fringe cascading from the legs. Models also wore coats with built-in scarves, tousled tweed dresses, and layered belts.

Channeling the same unapologetic sensuality that Tom Ford cemented at Gucci in the ’90s, Demna delivered a collection pulsing with that familiar, high-gloss provocation. An extended runway sliced by a single beam of light nodded to Ford’s iconic presentations, setting the tone before a single look even emerged. Peeking thongs, razor-low tight pants, monogrammed satchels, dangerously high mules, and micro minis made one thing clear: Gucci is back.
