Dubai Fashion Week: Tory Burch Unveils Sporty Collection with French Algerian Model
American designer Tory Burch made a splash at New York Fashion Week with a collection that exudes the essence of sport, featuring French Algerian model Loli Bahia strutting down the runway.
Freedom and Power
The collection showcased loose-fitting wool pants, wrap dresses, and an assembly of different pieces that exude freedom and movement. Models flaunted power through a mix of fabrics and cuts, creating a bold statement with each stride, as reported by AFP.
Modern Deconstruction
Loli Bahia stole the show in a sleek, structured black ensemble with asymmetrical cuts and overlapping panels, giving it a modern, deconstructed feel. The top featured a wrap-like structure with subtle ties, while the skirt boasted a high slit.
Bold Accessories
Completing the Spring/Summer 2025 look were bold, oversized statement earrings and classic black peep-toe heels that added an extra touch of sophistication.
Model Diversity
Joining Bahia on the runway was Mona Tougaard, a model of Danish, Turkish, Somali, and Ethiopian descent. Tougaard stunned in a sleeveless, cropped black top paired with a voluminous, flowy white skirt that featured delicate draping and soft pleats.
Standout Ensembles
Other standout looks from the show included ultra-light suede pants with a rope belt, a skin-tight sweater patterned in red and white, and a transparent white jersey shirt paired with brown wool pants.
Breaking Tradition
Tory Burch, known for her preppy New England style with a bohemian twist, took a different route with this collection. She focused on the spirit and essence of sport, aiming for a more movement-oriented aesthetic.
Synchronicity in Design
Burch emphasized the importance of movement, freedom, and precision in her designs, highlighting the word “synchronicity” as a key concept. She carefully curated textures, fabrics, and colors to convey a cohesive vision throughout the collection.
