PAUSE Highlights: The Best Spring/Summer 2025 Collaborations

Fashion Week isn’t just about showcasing new clothes anymore. It’s become a playground for brands and designers to hint at the next big thing: collaborations.

From Adidas to The North Face, the Spring/Summer 2025 collections have unveiled some exciting partnerships that are set to dominate street trends in the coming months. If you missed it, here are a few of our favourite collaborations.

At New York Fashion Week, Willy Chavarria’s Spring 2025 runway show unveiled an eagerly awaited collaboration with Adidas Originals, with several pieces already sold out. This limited-edition collection merges Chavarria’s ethos: boundary-pushing style with a fresh reinterpretation of classic sportswear. Featuring an array of standout items such as jerseys, jackets, bodysuits, track pants, ruffled tracksuits, and sneakers.

In anticipation of the Kick Hi’s 50th anniversary next year, Kickers has teamed up with fashion label Mains for a limited-edition footwear collection, blending the iconic Kick Hi with Mains’ contemporary style, led by creative director Skepta.

The collection debuted on the runway alongside classic Kickers colorways and the timeless Kick T-Bar, all styled with pieces from the Mains apparel line. Off the runway, the collab was spotted on Jordan Stephens, Not3s, and Unknown T, adding to the hype. The limited-edition Kickers x Mains collection is set to drop in August 2025.

Chopova Lowena shook things up at London Fashion Week with not one, but two epic collaborations. First up, they teamed with ASICS to drop a special edition of the Chopova Lowena custom ASICS GEL-QUANTUM 360M VIII. Covered in butterflies, rhinestones, flowers, and studs, these sneakers are the perfect mix of imagination and toughness, giving every member of the Chopova Lowena crew a seriously cool and comfy pair of kicks to rock all day.

On the other side, they teamed up with Hellmann’s to create the new Margaret bag — designed specifically to carry a jar of their legendary mayo. Each bag comes with a Victorian silver spoon and a vintage-style blue charm, so you’ll never be without something delicious. This quirky collab comes from a shared love of creativity and fun, while also giving a nod to Margaret Hellmann, the woman who created the classic recipe back in 1913. After 111 years as a party and picnic staple, Hellmann’s is finally hitting the runway with this limited-edition piece.

Cecilie Bahnsen, the Copenhagen label famous for its voluminous silhouettes and ultra-feminine fabrics, used its Spring/Summer 2025 Paris Fashion Week runway to tease a collaboration with The North Face, and we’re already obsessed. Though it’s not dropping until next year, the oversized duffel bags, chunky hiking boots, and practical windbreakers have been reimagined with Bahnsen’s signature Scandi-chic, feminine twist.

Another standout of the season is the viral crystal bag from Coperni, which we’ve already talked about. Coperni’s Sebastien Meyer and Arnaud Vaillant took over the final night of Paris Fashion Week at Disneyland Paris, using the magical setting to present their romantic and animated Spring/Summer 2025 collection. The show went beyond spectacle, drawing on the venue’s enchanting atmosphere to spark the imagination. A highlight of the runway was Coperni’s breathtaking SWAROVSKI collaboration: a 1.7-kilogram crystal bag made from 10 kilograms of SWAROVSKI gemstones. Inspired by Cinderella’s glass slipper, this dazzling accessory features glistening transparency and functional design, complete with miniature engraved Coperni lettering.

Another collaboration that has elevated sportswear is the Ujoh x Reebok partnership. The collection showcases Ujoh’s signature three-dimensional pattern-making, focusing on smart tailoring that shapes garments with a pattern-maker’s precision. A standout feature is the influence of Nishizaki’s nostalgic memories of the 1990s, which are brought to life through the collaboration with Reebok. This partnership introduces lightweight, water-repellent nylon washer fabric, luxurious materials, and iconic drawcord details, seamlessly blending Ujoh’s distinctive design with activewear elements.

Another collaboration that’s on our highlights list is MM6 Maison Margiela’s x Dr. Martens, showcased at Milan Fashion Week. The MM6 x Dr. Martens 1460 8-eyelet boots made a bold impression, hand-painted in white to complement the collection’s similarly painted garments. The boots were almost entirely dipped in chalky white paint, with parts peeling off around the outsole and laces, adding a deconstructed touch to the classic Dr. Martens silhouette.
