Maia TorresThe Picture This actress is now a Fashion Week staple, often appearing at the Paris and London shows, drinking in the latest offerings from luxury labels such as Calvin Klein and Chanel.
And this particularly glorious ensemble was worn to the Valentino spring/summer ’24 show back in October 2023, but it’s still as fresh as ever through a 2025 lens.
Simone perfectly balanced the edginess of urban sophistication with a dollop of summer in the form of the sensual silhouette. The cropped mock-neck knitted top offers a refined take on summer flesh-flashing, and the low-waist mini skirt is quite frankly, the Y2K piece of dreams.
The skirt’s clean structure and sharp hem celebrates sleek, no-fuss tailoring, a cornerstone of 2025 style. This isn’t just your typical summer outfit, quite frankly it’s a thesis on a perfectly balanced ensemble.
Her accessories of choice deserve lots the praise here too. Sunglasses, of course, to keep the paparazzi glare at bay, but the real statement is made south of her hemline. Enter: thigh-high white leather boots adding a retro-futuristic contrast to the super streamlined outfit.
Freshening up the all-black ensemble, the contrast in colour adds a crisp freshness that’s perfect for warmer months and is the idea celebration of how bold footwear can absolutely transform an outfit.
Simone topped off the look with a black leather jacket, giving the whole ensemble perfect off-duty model vibes (what cool girl doesn’t have a cracking leather jacket in their collection, eh?) So for summer 2025, we’re adding white boots and fierce leather to our shopping list immediately. Cheers Simone!
