The NYFW Report: 6 Trends to Know For Spring 2025

And just like that, New York Fashion Week has come to a close! Despite having a smaller-than-usual schedule this season, there was no shortage of captivating looks and star-studded moments. To name a few: Alaïa took over the iconic spiraled floors of the Guggenheim with pleated micro skirts, sculptural dresses, and, of course, Rihanna in attendance. Tommy Hilfiger showed a nautical-inspired collection on Pete Davidson and Colin Jost’s ferry, finished with a surprise performance from Wu-Tang Clan. Coach took over the High Line with more big bags (clutches were the It item) and reminded everyone of the vibrant energy that runs through New York City. Toteme and Off-White departed from their usual location at Paris Fashion Week to show stateside for the very first time. Ralph Lauren brought the fashion set to the Hamptons and finished the night with a dinner at a one-night-only Polo Bar, solely built for the occasion.

Then there are designers like Tory Burch and Sandy Liang, whose shows Who What Wear eagerly await every season. Despite targeting different generations, both shows managed to capture everyone’s attention, yet again. On Burch’s runway, Alexa Chung walked in a sublime feather skirt, fresh off the high from her recent buzzy Madewell collaboration. Everyone was quick to raise their cameras to get a shot of her. Standout pieces included zebra-like printed dresses, pierced handbags, and the return of the Reva flat. Liang leaned into nostalgia with an ode to Totally Spies, making the older Sandy Girl a spy. There were satin suits, capri sets, and, as always, plenty of satin silhouettes.
