Isabel Marant blended an edge for resort, in a collection that took notes from Victorian romanticism and 1980s attitude.The artistic director Kim Bekker softened the silhouette ever so slightly with flowing fabrics, rounded shoulders and subtle detailing such as lace and delicate, fabric-covered buttons.
Faux-fur coats were cinched at the waist and came with voluminous, rounded sleeves as a nod to Victorian fashion, while leather jackets adopted an ’80s edge, softened by delicate embroidery and laser-cut floral patterns.
The collection leaned heavily into textiles for a relaxed, feminine feel: think washed cotton-linen blends, soft velvets, laser-cut lace, and guipure bobbin stitching motifs for added depth and dimension. Bekker played with prints, mixing Western-inspired and petite Victorian florals, as well as motifs in metallic studs.
The brand’s bestselling low-heeled, slouchy boot was reimagined this season with laser cutouts, in a cute heart motif or a half-moon shape that breathed with swish and movement.
