Ann Demeulemeester 25-26AW Elegant Knit with Striking Slit Details

This knit feels as light and soft as air. The delicate distressed details on the collar and hem serve as the perfect accent, adding a unique, edgy touch that makes the piece stand out on its own. Its thoughtfully designed short length makes it easy to create a stylish contrast with inner layers and beautifully highlights the silhouette of your pants. This knit balances a grunge feel with a modern, fashionable vibe, giving you more styling options.


The charm of this knit lies in the exquisite, handcrafted damage processing applied throughout. The delicate fraying at the collar, cuffs, and hem creates a vintage-like depth and a calculated sense of "looseness" without becoming rugged. It shows various expressions with the wearer's movements, exuding a quiet yet definite presence. The design stands out for its carefully balanced approach, even though the processing appears to be random.

Slits are added to the hem and ribbed sections to create a sense of lightness. The slits are a symbolic design of this season. This piece has a unique atmosphere where ruggedness and elegance coexist, and simply wearing it creates shadows that follow your every movement.

The silhouette is a trendy boxy cropped length, which fits modern styles. It naturally makes the waist appear higher, creating a more stylish look. When paired with a long-length shirt or cut-and-sew inner layer, it creates a sophisticated, contrasting layered style. You can also enjoy a minimalist yet edgy, fashionable outfit by combining it with high-waisted wide pants or a flowing long skirt.

The material is a luxurious 100% high-quality wool fabric. It features a soft, brushed feel without the typical itchiness of wool, making it gentle on the skin. This lightweight fabric drapes elegantly with every movement, creating a rich, expressive look. The natural, graceful fall of the material elevates your style, making even simple movements appear beautiful.

This book necklace encloses a tiny book. The locket opens with a latch and contains blank pages. The gentle antique silver tone and delicate chain add a poetic nuance to the neckline, expressing the brand's unique worldview.
Ann Demeulemeester's wide trousers are meticulously designed down to the last detail.

Trousers tailored with a beautiful silhouette. The deep tucks at the waist provide ample room around the hips. The wide, straight silhouette creates a calm impression, offering an adjustable fit that balances softness and a three-dimensional feel.

The included thin, long belt adds a sharp vertical accent to the outfit. The tucks at the waist can be folded in to reduce excess volume, creating a well-defined and sophisticated look. For a clean silhouette, practical slash pockets are minimally placed on both sides. The waist can be freely adjusted with the belt, allowing for versatile styling—whether you wear it at your natural waist for a precise fit or lower it for a more relaxed feel.

Patch pockets are placed on the left and right back, with a single-welt pocket on the right side as well. The large pockets serve as an accent, enhancing the design. These back details tighten the overall impression, resulting in a design that combines both practicality and decoration.

The fluid, wide silhouette with an overall relaxed fit balances a sense of ease with an elegant atmosphere. The carefully calculated volume creates beautiful drapes with every step, and the natural puddling at the hems adds a three-dimensional look to the feet. The pattern design is a signature of the brand, simple yet highlighting the beauty of the silhouette.

The hems are stiff and firm, creating natural shadows and a three-dimensional effect with every step. While the silhouette is wide, it remains light, and the hem design adds depth to the outfit. Paired with GUIDI 988X boots, the look exudes a ruggedness, yet the way the hems lightly rest on the boots adds a touch of elegance. The changing expression of the hems as you move tightens the overall impression of the coordination.

The fabric is made from high-quality Italian cotton, characterized by a crisp texture and a matte finish that highlights the shadows of the seams. The smooth and firm feel provides a sense of reassurance, and the material itself is an item that adapts to movement while maintaining its elegant feel.
