Maximilian Davis, newly appointed creative director of Ferragamo, is reinvigorating the nearly 100-year-old Italian brand with his fall/winter 2025 collection. Davis draws inspiration from dance, particularly the expressive German Tanztheater, merging this aesthetic with nods to the 1920s and 1980s as he explores new ways to structure fabric. His collection includes innovative interpretations of classic pieces like leggings and bags, reflecting his vision of creating discomfort and intrigue through familiar forms, demonstrating both heritage respect and contemporary innovation in fashion.
The surrealist idea of taking everyday objects and making them feel a little disturbed is something I find very interesting, creating a sense of discomfort in the expected.
Davis set out to explore the work of the German Tanztheater and the unbound expression of their liberated choreography, culminating in the fall/winter 2025 collection.
Off-stage wardrobes are entirely knitted from jersey yarn in fluid reconfigurations of familiar forms that allow for easy movement, just like a dancer's attire.
Davis's fall/winter 2025 collection explores harmonies across time through his distinct lens, reflecting inspirations from the 1920s and 1980s.
