Lardini’s Spring-Summer 2025 collection explores the theme of lightness, inspired by Italo Calvino’s philosophy that encourages freedom from burdens that might weigh down the heart. This collection embodies a spirit of ease and connection, allowing individuals to discern what is essential versus what is unnecessary in life.

The aesthetic for this season draws from the relaxed tempo of the French Riviera, interpreted through a modern lens devoid of nostalgia. Key pieces include blazers that defy traditional structure, offering a casual take reminiscent of cardigans, yet tailored with a sophisticated double-breasted design. Styled with rounded trousers and open-necked shirts layered over visible tank tops, the collection focuses on versatility and personal expression, empowering wearers to curate combinations that reflect their moods and desires.
Textures such as linen, soft wool cavalry, and airy cotton blend with materials like Tencel and silky components, contributing to fluid masculinity while borrowing elements from women’s fashion. This is evidenced in loose overcoats, creatively paired ties, and innovative twinsets of tops and knits, promoting an effortless approach to style.
The colour palette is a serene gradient extending from timeless black and tobacco to navy blue, sage green, and hints of antique pink and wisteria. Fabrics, sometimes treated with unique washes and finishes, impart a tactile quality that encourages dynamic outfit compositions.
Within this framework, Lardini redefines luxury beyond current trends, advocating for a personalized expression that transcends temporal boundaries. In a world often dominated by uniformity, Lardini champions a distinctive approach to fashion, positioning dressing as an intimate exploration of identity and aspiration. Thus, the act of dressing evolves into a thoughtful ritual, reflecting a contemporary yet gentle perspective on masculinity.
