Zimmermann Presents Its New Spring Ready-To-Wear 2025 Collection: Illumination

Luxferity, 01.10.2024

Inspired by the cult 70s surf film, Morning of the Earth, Zimmermann’s Spring 25 collection, Illumination, translates the film’s earthly wisdom into a modern celebration of humankind’s symbiotic relationship with nature.

“For Spring we were inspired by Albe Falzon’s beautiful 70s surf film, Morning of the Earth. The film is a celebration of free-spirited surfers whose passion brought them closer to nature. It’s so visually stunning – the way it captures the golden morning light and the colour of nature is just so inspiring. We leant into the aesthetics of the film more than surf itself – the irresistible way the film captures dappled light, the flowing movement of the sea and that feeling of harmony between surfer and nature.

As a kid growing up near the beach in Southern Sydney, I used to go down to the local town hall where they would play surf films like this - I’m talking in the late 70s and early 80s I guess – and everyone would sit on the floor and watch them projected on a screen. I always loved those films, the freedom of the lifestyle and the beautiful way that the sand and the surf interacted with the golden sunlight.” - Nicky Zimmermann, Creative Director.

One of the first of its genre, Morning of the Earth’s uplifting soundtrack and sun-drenched visuals highlight a sense of connection with the world around us and it’s in this centre of harmony that Zimmermann plays for Spring – turning light into palettes, waves into textures and stones into jewels. Illuminating a world capable of magic and electrifying the senses.

“When Nicky let me know that the film was a key inspiration behind her Spring collection I was really thrilled to hear that the film could inspire a different creative genre in this way. I know Nicky and her team really connected with the imagery and the mood of the film. The early morning light and soft pre-dawn colours of the sunrise offer the most beautiful tapestry to paint upon. The rainbow in every drop of spray from the breaking of each wave is an everlasting Jewel of light – it’s every morning of the Earth. The Zimmermann collection captures those moments – soft and translucent colours and flowing lines, like waves in the ocean.” - Albe Falzon OAM.

Invigorated and joyful, Illumination is designed for a woman whose life is in flow. Soft flutters of fabric, and undulating silhouettes recall the soothing lullaby of the ocean. Organic influences touch each garment – hand braided inserts, wooden beads thoughtfully threaded on leather binding, and untreated cotton lace – suggesting attunement with the universe around us.

There is a poetic tension in opposites. Drill utility styles find a counterpoint alongside liquid agate prints and sunset hues. Island artworks and scuba-panelled bodysuits channel surfer off-duty; while wave-cap trims, radiating sun embroideries and sculptural thong heels fittingly salute the bohemian surf lifestyle. Rope skirts, and windcheaters styled as dresses are worn with natural ease giving that just-out-of-the-water vibe.

Slinky jersey in strong cuts is sensual and self-assured. Sculptural forms draw inspiration from the water. Crunchy paper organdy recalls sea anemones and a high shine metallic emulates the glimmer of sun on water, and moves like liquid sand. Burnt bronze, refreshing white and sandy suedes ground the spectrum of saturated sunrise tones throughout the collection.

Accessories weave sentimental significance into found objects like shells and rocks, recalling mornings spent waking with the sea – whitewashed and salty – surfaced nostalgia including dolphin motifs and turquoise gems; sophisticated broad brim hats and braided sandals. Beaded scarves as belts and sporty curved-lens sunglasses nod to the 70s.

Bags continue the narrative weaving nature, folklore and feminine strength together with a dedicated collection for Spring 25. Rustic meets modern with organic shapes in soft nappa leather, linen and cotton canvas while Zimmermann’s Australian, beachside origins are revealed in surfboard-inspired hardware and kangaroo motifs imprinted on sculptural clutches add a touch of fun and majesty. Stones as decorative charms, printed raffia, fringing and beading elevate the craftsmanship and compliment the natural utility of the styles.
