Hed Mayner is going against the grain for Spring/Summer 2025, elevating his signature menswear with a more dramatic twist. The designer fearlessly challenged the status quo of Paris Fashion Week, venturing beyond his comfort zone and building upon the innovative concepts from last season.
Hed Mayner’s SS25 collection spearheaded his signature bold and dramatized menswear but injected a sense of newness with refreshed textiles, prints, and patterns. The spectacle commenced with orchestra-inspired instrumentals packed with daring rhythms as models walked down a slim wooden plank that doubled as a runway.
The 32-look line showcases Hed Mayner’s core design language with a fresh outlook. Collarless bomber jackets were puffed to perfection but crafted in lightweight linens for the summertime. Leather button-downs exaggerated the human form with striking outlines, while buttoned vests revealed chiseled torsos beneath. Casual motorcycle vests were upgraded with tripled belts, followed by broad-shouldered pinstriped suiting and voluminous trench coats rolled at the cuffs to reveal checkered lining.
Crinkled fabrics enclose the sense of pre-loved garments on multi-faceted outerwear, accompanied by the designer’s oversized version of Canadian tuxedos. Pocketed gilets hold their shape with exposed foam padding paired with elbow-length gloves taken from medical labs. Elsewhere, deconstructed peacoats were slashed at the sleeves with arm shafts in unconventional places. Hed Mayner revealed another Reebok collaboration on the runway, spread across enlarged red tracksuits, training-inspired Blacktop kicks, and BB4000s with exposed sponge cushioning.
