There was a strong sense of déjà vu this Autumn/Winter 2025 season.
On Dior’s runway, Maria Grazia Chiuri revived the cult-status “J’adore Dior” tee – last seen in John Galliano’s Spring/Summer 2001 show, now styled with a cropped bolero and trimmed in lace. At Chloé, Chemena Kamali brought back the beloved Paddington bag, its signature chunky lock updated with charms that speak to today’s maximalist, chaotic customisation trend. At Alexander McQueen, the iconic skull scarf — a symbol of mid-2000s subversive chic — also made a comeback, with @databutmakeitfashion reporting that interest in the piece has surged by around 79 per cent daily since the March runway show.
