A moment of bliss and delight… thanks to Nicolas de Felice.<\/b><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This is how we could sum up the latest Courr\u00e8ges fashion show for fall-winter 2025\u20132026,<\/b> which took place on March 5 in Paris at the Carreau du Temple, unanimously praised by the press.<\/b><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Against a backdrop of geopolitical noise and fury, hearts were hardly in party mode during this Paris Fashion Week. But Courr\u00e8ges, the brand that perfectly embodies past and future, managed to make us forget the present,<\/b> for the duration of an enchanted interlude… Or rather a \u201cOne minute Courr\u00e8ges\u201d<\/b>, the name of its latest opus.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cWe artistic directors often react to what is happening around us. I want to respond with optimism, which is characteristic of the Courr\u00e8ges fashion house.<\/b>\u201d Nicolas Di Felice told the fashion press.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And indeed, the Belgian, who has been at the helm of the fashion house, a subsidiary of Art\u00e9mis, the holding company of the Pinault<\/b> family, since 2020, has once again succeeded in charming the fashion world with his vision that is both respectful of the legacy of Andr\u00e9 Courr\u00e8ges<\/b> while pursuing his futuristic approach.<\/b> Structured and innovative cuts, monobloc and pure colors: the vocabulary of Andr\u00e9 Courr\u00e8ges is very much there, transposed into our decade.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
No show-off: in an extremely sober setting, an immaculate box, under a glass roof bathed in pre-spring sunshine, a white flag (welcome in these troubled times) floating, the parade sets the tone of joy and celebration, with a shower of blue, white and pink<\/b> confetti…. Confetti in the shape of a rectangle, a geometric shape that is very present in the collection.<\/b> The remix of the classic club by Chantal \u201cThe Realm\u201d<\/b>, by Erwan Sene and… Nicolas Di Felice, delivers the same message on this day after carnival: it’s time to forget the burdens of everyday life and have fun!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And the artistic director himself obviously had fun imagining the 45 deceptively simple silhouettes<\/b> in the collection, with their many original cuts and shapes<\/b>.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Nicolas de Felice started his collection by buying strips of wool, which he used to drape over the models<\/b>. \u201cThat’s how the first silhouettes came about. The starting point of the collection,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
This was developed into minimalist models, whose strength lies in their architecture<\/b>, even if it means twisting \u2018the construction of Courr\u00e8ges archetypes\u2019 with \u2018oblique angles and asymmetrical fastenings,<\/b> which alter the balance of traditional codes\u2019. Long rectangles of fabric<\/b> extend the mini-skirts with bias trains or are wrapped around the body like scarves to become a top or a dress…<\/p>\n
