Spring-Summer 24 Style Focus: sporty lifestyle The 15 March 2023 - Spring-Summer 24 - Bag & shoes - Sport & Tech - Women's fashion

Couture fabrics for Spring-Summer 2024 meld climate protection and elegance, ensuring seductive appeal in any kind of weather.

Asymmetrical, trimmed with exaggerated ruffles or high-fitting collars, flowy or tightly fitting dresses take their inspiration from luxury style codes, hurtling them into the future. These are dresses that make striding through the city, racing down boulevards and weathering the last of winter’s storms a breeze.

Innovative and graceful, silks and satins feature water-repellent properties. Taffeta surfaces come alive with vibrations and flashes of light to sparkle on our e-bikes. The use of stretch silk lends glamor and comfort. Tangy colors are a spur to action. Their vitality is heightened by translucent textures.

These outfits all feature a strong focus on knits, promising ease and elegance.

Biking shorts and second-skin suits are inspired by speed sports like competitive cycling.

Anatomical, ultra-stretch knits can be freely layered with fluid fabrics to produce an explosive interplay of materials and colors. New-generation seamless and quick-dry knits are characterized by their exceptionally light weights, while also featuring micro-ventilation and precise stitch plays to provide breathable properties. Knit structures are more firmly set, updating shapewear. Innovative knitting techniques and skillfully placed jacquards mark out reinforced and openwork areas, to slim and emphasize certain parts of the body.

The success and growing popularization of soft sports such as yoga are redefining the concept of clothing comfort, integrating it into our everyday lives. The latest blends combine cellulosic fibers and recycled synthetics. Finishes are finely powdered, talc-like, or subtly glossy. These fabrics are no longer confined to sport apparel, and are being integrated into our everyday wardrobes. They are particularly destined for drapings to interwork in dress necklines.

Shoe accessories lend a futuristic touch to this sexy and sporty outfit. High boots are imagined as sleekly designed as possible. Perched atop sturdy, oversized blocky heels, the look is streamlined and dynamic. Leathers reveal a techno-sensitive, colorful, patent-leather look. They feature wet or lacquered aspects, embellished on the surface with iridescence and digital nuances. Transposed into a palette of artificial pastels, the various shoe components are frenetically stacked to offer up designs that are at once highly colorful and pared-down.
