In Milan on Saturday, Stone Island unearthed its Fall/Winter 2025 collection in a sprawling industrial showroom, where glass sectionals divided the premium outerwear label’s latest additions by their various sub-labels: Ghost, Marina and Stellina among them.
Stone Island Ghost appeared ever-so-sophisticated, with a bounty of monochromatic formals made with the brand’s signature DAVID-TC textile, while the Marina line was ultra-bright with an all-new, high-tech ribbed reflective silver badge. Stellina, meanwhile, built on its minimalist, cosmopolitan aesthetic, and a new “Raw Beauty” capsule turned the imprint’s old fabric scraps into shredded and rewoven garments, each with references to Stone Island’s expanding archive.
Elsewhere, the brand’s mainline collection was largely inspired by Japanese design techniques and lifestyles. Several pieces employed a proprietary dyeing method inspired by traditional indigo dyeing, while others were galvanized by Japan’s neon-lit megacities and natural landscapes.
There were legions of techy garments to see and feel, including the Translucent Cover, or a two-layer jacket boasting a garment-dyed translucent polyurethane shell lined with cotton moleskin, and the Uneven Ripstop Prismatico, a hooded coat made with ripstop cotton and covered with a thin polyurethane film inspired by Stone Island’s classic “Reverse Colour Process” treatment.
The color collision knit cardigan was just as impressive, with a five-gauge cotton knit ribbed construction manually sprayed in various hues. Last but not least, the label’s longstanding Ice Jacket, first introduced in 1989, re-emerged, changing color when in contact with heat thanks to its two-layer thermo-sensitive build — and it’s now available as a sweater for the first time, too.
