Fashion in 2025: Goodbye Quiet Luxury, Hello Personal Style

We saw many big changes in the fashion industry in 2024. Many of the top fashion houses got new creative directors. Matthieu Blazy is now leading fashion at Chanel. Louise Trotter took his place at Bottega Veneta. Hedi Slimane left Celine, replaced by Michael Rider. Sarah Burton will design for Givenchy, and other side, Haider Ackermann for Tom Ford. Kim Jones left Fendi, just as the brand celebrates 100 years.

As we all know, these designers are known for making mature, thoughtful clothes. They not only focus on what is trending in the fashion world, but they also value craftsmanship and their vision. This has been a big change in the industry, when brands are hiring young or lesser-known designers to have fresh and unique styles. This time, the industry and fashion houses are shifting towards quality, elegance, and lasting designs.

In the past years, one trend has majorly ruled the fashion industry: Quiet Luxury, the clothes were expensive-looking and logo-free. It was everywhere that even brands like Uniqlo and J.Crew  started copying it. But it did one thing that everyone started dressing the same with neutral colors, plain sweaters, and slacks. Fashion became boring and safe.

People are now tired of all this sameness. With all these social media trends, it’s hard to follow and now people want to express their emotions, not just follow the crowd.

Experts are saying that we are now entering a new phase. Although some brands are still following the calm, classic look, like Hermès and The Row. While brands like Rick Owens and Comme des Garçons are going for more bold and creative looks.

In 2025, we will see a mix of clean and timeless styles of quiet luxury but also more colorful, expressive, and personal looks. The key, though, behind this will be designs that feel thoughtful and original.

Fashion is becoming more about you, your story, your taste, and your feelings. And that is something exciting to look forward to.
