‘Lives and Works in’ Performance by Race Imboden
META CAMPANIA COLLECTIVE’s Womens’ and Mens’ Spring / Summer 2025 collection was presented on the 18th of June during Paris Fashion Week, at the Gallery Cohle in Paris.
META CAMPANIA COLLECTIVE‘s Womens’ and Mens’ Spring / Summer 2025 collection channels the long days and warm light of the seasons. Taking cues from the way an artist lives, works, and dresses throughout the summer, the collection is sun-washed, elevated, and effortless.
White and off-white establish the season’s color foundation. Sea and sky blues, reflecting the Mediterranean, provide the next layer. Bright purple, terracotta and a variegated stone print add bold accents. Finally, two of Meta Campania Collective’s signature colors, dark chocolate brown and midnight blue, return to connect the wardrobe to past collections and collections to come.

For SS25, SEASON 7’s materials are as vernal as the palette. Crisp cotton, cotton lace, tropical-weight wool, and silk knitwear lie cool against the skin and mellow out the sun. Drawstring trousers and shirt dresses in ultra-soft lamb suede are a sophisticated springtime alternatives in ice grey.
Silk plays a crucial role. In knitwear, it gives shape, warmth and texture to shirt dresses, polos, leggings and cycling shorts. Whereas when blended with lightweight wool, silk makes suits and jackets standout options for warm evenings.
Ample silhouettes convey confidence and immediate luxury, especially in the outerwear pieces. An elongated hooded parka in wool-silk and an unlined tonic-cotton trench show off volume in a gust of wind while insuring against a sudden downpour.
As always, workwear is well represented, now reinterpreted in lightweight cottons and translucent silks. Denim, also, continues its integration into the collection. A 70s bootcut jean and collarless jacket have been modernized in raw denim, while overshirts in a washed example of the fabric can be thrown on to create an easy, denim-on-denim look.
The same luxury nonchalance of META’s ready-to-wear is shown in the accessories. Minimalist and unlined, cross-body bags and totes are constructed in soft lamb suede and supple calf and deer leather.
