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

A summer of 2025 marked by light, refinement, and individual expression. As outfits lighten and flirt with transparency, accessories assert themselves as key pieces, designed to capture attention while highlighting a specific idea of style: precise, cultured, without excess. Spotted on the runways of the biggest fashion houses, they define a season where luxury is whispered, hinted at, and above all, worn with confidence.

The Return of Precious Detail

In an era where minimalism evolves towards 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 shapes, and patinated gold jewelry appears in rigid necklaces or rounded hoops, worn directly against the skin. Accessories thus merge utility and form, becoming volumes of portable architecture.
At Chanel, the pearl is reinvented, embedded on tweed sandals or hanging from mini rigid bags, recalling Gabrielle’s legacy without ever falling into repetition. These accessories tell a story of detail that does not seek immediate seduction but aims to assert itself through precision.

Sculptural Sunglasses and Graphic Allure

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

Bold Jewelry: Between Precious Minimalism and Controlled Opulence

This season, jewelry refuses unnecessary ornamentation. At Saint Laurent, necklaces take the form of sharp geometric lines, gilded with matte gold, worn directly against the skin. The effect is raw, almost architectural. At Dior, 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 and sophisticated femininity. The matte metal contrasts with the pearly sheen, creating a look that is both sculptural and spiritual. These strong pieces, worn alone or in pairs, convey a confident 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 using structured raffia bags, subtly logoed. 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 cross-strap sandals, designed as a second skin. The materials are almost raw, with soft leathers in sandy, terracotta, or ivory tones, inspired by earth and elements. Nothing is left to chance: each curve embraces the body’s movement in a subtle sensuality. At The Row, the 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

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