We've professed our love for Kody Phillips before. So, if you're still sleeping, what are you doing? The designer's Fall/Winter 2025 collection is his strongest and most well-rounded to date. We've been excited for it to hit shelves since we got a first look at it in Paris back in January. Phillips' meticulous attention to detail shines across pieces like baby pink driving gloves adorned with pearls, shirts with lasso trim and embellished buttons, and a calfskin leather jacket that contorts lasso to spell out his initials "KP" across the back. It all perfectly straddles the line between elegance and everyday wearability.
Stile De Amor, which is Italian for "love for style," is cooking up pieces that perfectly cater to this era of streetwear and hip-hop style that the youth is obsessing over. That means boxy fits, rockstar-inspired graphics, and colorful embellishments. It's no wonder it's already gotten co-signs from the likes of DDG, Plaqueboymax, and Kodak Black.
Jason Demaci is a designer that's making waves right now with his bulky footwear. His XGG Boots are what you would get if a classic pair of Uggs and Balenciaga's Alaska boot had a baby. The result is a mid-calf boot made of Italian suede that sits on a super chunky lug sole. Recent placements on stylish stars like Yeat and J Balvin indicate a promising future for Demaci. We're interested to see the direction he takes his line in next.
This Chinese streetwear brand has gained some traction with its pillbox hats featuring bold colorways like patchwork and leopard print. It's also found a hit with its giant pleated cargo shorts that are sure to become a go-to item in your closet one you get a pair.
