The Resort 2025 collection from St. John effortlessly strikes a balance between androgynous and feminine, with pinstripe pantsuits and plaid shorts suits complemented by sleek black coat dresses and tank dresses adorned with gold chain lacing details. This interplay of masculine and feminine elements creates a dynamic and versatile collection that caters to a wide range of personal styles and preferences.
“The concept overall was to capture the pleasure of getting dressed again,” Chiarparin reveals, as the collection moves away from the casual and minimal aesthetic that has dominated the industry in recent years. Instead, St. John presents a bold, layered, and polished vision that celebrates the joy of self-expression through fashion.
As a brand steeped in rich California heritage, St. John has always been known for its impeccable craftsmanship and attention to detail. The Resort 2025 collection seamlessly integrates the brand’s signature hardware and jeweled buttons, while infusing a fresh, contemporary edge. The brand’s iconic knits have also undergone a transformation, with a sharper, more polished look exemplified by a white car wash pleat skirt and turtleneck sweater set featuring grommet hardware details. Additionally, the collection boasts laser-cut leather jackets, grommet-embellished mock neck blouses, and faux furs – all of which serve as wardrobe builders that exude a diva-worthy presence.
