NEOUS Unveils Autumn/Winter 2025 Collection
NEOUS presents its Autumn/Winter 2025 collection, “Redefining Beauty,” a nostalgic yet modern take on femininity. Drawing inspiration from the late 1990s and early 2000s, founder Vanissa Antonious reimagines once-unloved styles, such as kitten heels and peep toes, through a lens of sensuality and craftsmanship. The collection reflects influences from Sofia Coppola’s “The Virgin Suicides” and Alessandra Spranzi’s everyday visual poetry.
Key pieces include the lace-up ZIRR mule, sheer DANUS sandal, and sculptural BERENICES EAST WEST handbag. With rich textures like burgundy abrasivato leather and cream crepe de chine, AW25 strikes a balance between elegance and playfulness. It challenges traditional beauty by finding allure in the unexpected.
