Bryson Tiller Trapsoul Trio Shirt

The Bryson Tiller Trapsoul Trio Shirt . spring/summer 2025 womenswear shows are fast approaching, with New York Fashion Week ringing in the season as the first of the four top fashion cities, due to kick off September 6. With it, we can expect an evolution of trends that have already engrossed audiences in the past, as well as ones that seem to dramatically juxtapose these inclinations. To discuss the shifts, FashionUnited spoke to Patricia Maeda, director of womenswear at trend forecasting agency Fashion Snoops.Though artificial intelligence (AI) is still in its infancy within the fashion design world, it has a vast potential, according to Maeda. “As technology continues to evolve, September’s fashion shows promise even more tech-driven breakthroughs,” Maeda added. “It will be fascinating to see how designers harness technology to push the boundaries of craftsmanship and extend the boundaries of what we usually associate with traditional luxury.”In this respect, notable events on the horizon for Maeda include Matthieu Blazy’s work at Bottega Veneta, who “shows that innovation and craftsmanship can coexist harmoniously”, and Coperni’s impending show at Disneyland Paris, which Maeda said is “poised to deliver a truly unforgettable fashion moment merging technology and fashion”. This inclusion of AI technology won’t be entirely new, however. Machine-learning was already applied to create AI-generated prints in Collina Strada’s spring 2024 collection, for example, while at Christian Cowan’s NYFW show, the designer’s Primrose dress, made in collaboration with Adobe, caused a stir, Maeda highlighted. What new forms AI X Fashion could take is yet to be seen.

Developments as a result of time passing will also become evident in fashion among shifting generational values, changes that are to particularly impact and reshape product trends. Touching on this, Maeda said: “Brand loyalty has shifted dramatically in recent years as companies recognise that a mere namesake label no longer captures the hearts of millennials and Gen Z.”Maeda noted that such pivots have directly influenced the rise of daywear, sportswear and casual dressing, which ultimately reflect the “modern consumer desire for practicality” and thus a “renewed interest in the ‘everyday’ and a pragmatic approach to how women actually dress” that has seen a resurgence in designer showcases. What this could mean for SS25 is collections that “truly embody the essence of contemporary fashion”, Maeda added, with favour towards a “more flexible and authentic approach to style over rigid sartorial norms”.An example of this had previously been touched on by Melissa Moylan, VP of womenswear at Fashion Snoops, who said in her SS25 trend seminar that increased value orientation of customers saw them supporting brands that reflected their larger beliefs. As such, as part of her trend ‘Devotion’, she believes there could be a reexamination of traditionalism and rituals that could particularly take shape in the form of rebellious disobedience. Willy Chavarria already depicted an example of such during his AW24 show, where he presented a collection inspired by clericalism to comment on his religious upbringing and challenge traditional brand perceptions.
