Thom Browne Summer 2025 Collection Rides Wave of 2025 Met Gala Success AOC Fashion
Thom Browne invites us to meet him in the garden for champagne on the lawn, where we will find a light breeze skimming the grass.
Flamingos are sure to join us, dropping by to celebrate not only the Thom Browne Summer 2025 Collection but the superb Met Gala 2025 showing of Thom Browne’s take on Black dandyism.
Models Debra Shaw, Liz Kennedy, Sam Nixon and Thatcher Thornton are already present at the celebration. The designer Thom Browne himself tapped Spanish photographer now based in Paris Kito Muñoz [IG] to shoot the campaign in Miami.
AOC Taps Debra Shaw in Dior Cruise 2025 for a History Lesson on Pre-Christian Scottish Women
Maria Grazia Chiuri staged her Dior Cruise 2025 show in the gardens of Drummond Castle in Scotland, with bagpipes making the occasion. The winter Luxe issue of Grazia UK [IG] features top model Debra Shaw wearing key pieces from the Dior Cruise 2025 collection, lensed by Silvana Trevale [IG] at the Gleneagles Hotel in Perthshire, Scotland.
Dior’s Maria Grazia Chiuri Always Finds the Unique Makers for Her Collections
In fashion we concentrate so much on shape Grazia said, but textiles are a big part of our job—what you can do with them, and the changes you can make through them.” So, Chiuri went to the traditional—the tartan and cashmeres, the tweeds and the Argyles—and deftly filtered them into a collection which variously drew on the geopolitics of fabrics.
Chiuri’s collection and brief history lesson took AOC on a breakthrough journey into the history of women in Scotland and beyond. Anne never intended to land in a deep-dive into the Middle Ages. In fact, that’s exactly where our Gleneagles Defender landed.
In the words of Laura Craik, writing for The Sunday Times Style magazine September 3, 2023, Debra Shaw “thrums with good energy”. A key reason for Shaw’s longevity as a couture model lies in her humanist spirit.
Fabien Montique [IG] captures Shaw in the fashion story ‘Red Hot’, wearing Celine by Hedi Slimane on the cover. Note an outtake from Montique that is very VROOM VROOM. “I like wearing red — it’s a powerful colour,” says Shaw.
For AOC, Shaw’s self-analysis of her secret to her longevity is a life lesson for all of us. It involves:
“. . . being open, being flexible and not having the ego involved in areas that it doesn’t need to be involved in. You can have the ego on stage because that helps the performance, but coming in and demanding things? That doesn’t work with this [younger] generation. It should never have worked, because the reality is we’re all pulling together. So be a team player.”
Philadelphia-born, dual American and French citizen, muse to Alexander McQueen, the fabulous Debra Shaw takes it easy in the pages of Marie Claire France. Sabine Villiard [IG] is in the studio, capturing Shaw for the January 2023 issue.
