Peter Do‘s Spring/Summer 2025 collection, titled “Grounded,” showcases a harmonious blend of artisanal craftsmanship and contemporary tailoring, reflecting the designer’s evolving narrative. Presented at Paris Fashion Week in the Musée Guimet, the collection incorporates traditional Thai indigo dyeing techniques through a collaboration with Philip Huang, underscoring a commitment to sustainability and cultural preservation. Do’s reinterpretation of summer tailoring employs featherweight fabrics like wool, silk, and chiffon, creating a fresh, minimalist aesthetic. Highlights include oversized blazers, bias-cut silk dresses, modernized traditional Vietnamese garments, and innovative fabric treatments that mimic the texture of crushed paper and delicate floral motifs rendered on sheer Italian jersey.
The collection further emphasizes functionality and sustainability with asymmetric shirts offering customizable fits, garment-dyed “Vietnam” t-shirts inspired by vintage souvenirs, and upcycled pieces like hand-ripped jeans. The runway presentation evoked a sense of fluidity and freedom, encapsulating Do’s belief in clothing as an extension of individuality and self-expression. By integrating cultural heritage with innovative design, “Grounded” affirms Do’s artistic vision and sets a benchmark for future-focused, thoughtful fashion.
