IOANNES FW25 Is Armor For The Tender

And it cuts deep.

POSTED BY ZOE TYLER

Staged at The Orangerie, Charlottenburg Palace, designer Johannes Boehl-Cronau turned the idea of resilience inside out. Instead of hardening, this collection asks what happens when you bloom so delicately it becomes a kind of rebellion. It’s about softness sharpened into edge beauty that bruises back.

IOANNES has always been less of a brand and more of a moodboard for memory and metamorphosis. But this season feels intimate. Confessional. Boehl-Cronau calls it “a personal dare” to be louder, queerer, rawer, and still tender. “It is a shedding of hesitation,” he says, “and a quiet scream for freedom ritualized, romanticized, and staged at the edge of a dream.”

Soft Cuts, Sharp Truths

The silhouettes tell the story: sheer fabrics clashing with structured tailoring, veggie-dyed ruffles next to raw hems, sequin tassels dissolving like they’re mid-exorcism. Everything is in tension — delicate Supima cotton vs. patina-sprayed outerwear, softly tailored drapes vs. armor-coded layering. The pieces aren’t just worn. They evolve. They come undone.

Forget the brand’s usual signature prints — this season strips things down to form and transformation. Shapes shift. Pieces reconfigure. Nothing’s final. Everything breathes.

The Palette? Petal-Soft Meets War-Torn

Think blush pink fading into ganache brown. Sand tangled with deep olive. Black leads the charge as structure, not a shadow. It's about absence speaking louder than print. Texture over ornament. Silhouettes over spectacle.

This is about standing tall, standing exposed and somehow thriving.
