Q by Concepts Paris

Q is not a trend forecast.

It is a Design Intelligence Review - connecting the cultural, commercial and emotional shifts shaping the future of lingerie and bodywear.

What are women longing for?
Which ideas deserve your attention?
How do today’s societal changes become tomorrow’s products?

Richly illustrated with design, fabrics, colours, retail observations and inspiring people, Q connects the dots before they become trends.

Because great products don’t begin with trends. They begin with understanding.

The Print Is the Story
A print can tell a story long before a garment is worn. My own kimono is made from a painstakingly assembled collection of silk scarves by artist Marianne van Doodewaard, discovered at Amsterdam’s cult design store, The Frozen Fountain. Every scarf carries its own narrative, transforming the garment into a wearable collage of memories, craftsmanship and imagination
This is why narrative prints continue to resonate. They are more than decoration—they invite conversation, celebrate individuality and allow us to wear a story rather than simply a pattern.
I am greeting Matteo Marzotto at Milano Unica, talking about Minervahub Matteo presides, the amazing gathering of Italian luxury craft specialists.

I am obsessed with the recent Dries van Noten menswear show. The vision behind it is exactly why I have remained such a loyal admirer of Dries over the years. Its effortless wearability, elevated through sophisticated tailoring, colour and subtle details, is very close to my own design philosophy. I have always believed in the inspiration of menswear—that is why I also loved Jean Paul Gaultier and Romeo Gigli.

What occupies me now is how to respond to the growing appetite for natural materials. Combined with my long-standing 24-hour wardrobe credo and the return of feminine sensuality, it has me searching again for silk and silk-inspired fabrics. I have the feeling that the bodywear/yoga connection, so closely linked to high-tech synthetics, is approaching saturation. We need materials with purpose, lightness and impact—beautiful pieces that travel effortlessly and work with minimal luggage.

Alongside real silk—I have found some wonderful sources in Asia—I am also a great believer in advanced cellulosics and particularly impressed by what İpeker in Turkey is achieving with Cupro. My current focus is on woven fabrics, although my “trouser + tank top + shirt” wardrobe concept also demands exceptional natural knits.

That is my next exploration. Any recommendations or discoveries are more than welcome.

BODY CELEBRATION
Women are not rejecting comfort. They are treating it as the new basic. The real aspiration now is emotional richness: beauty, sensuality, individuality, pleasure.

For Concepts Paris, this confirms what we have been observing for years: lingerie is moving beyond functional underwear into the 24-hour wardrobe, where comfort, identity, wellness and desire no longer compete — they coexist.

Iluna is hitting the jackpot with its hosiery technology. Already a bestseller at Calzedonia, loved by influencers, and now moving from the middle market to top brands , it shows how bodywear is becoming a new language of freedom.

Shakira in Iluna bodywear designed by Off-White at the World Cup Opening Ceremony, and the exclusive Sarda range for the Belgian Tomorrowland festival, say it clearly:

the body is back — not as an object, but as celebration.

Not done with cottage core. Not even close.

At Le Bon Marché, pre-Easter takes a sharp, playful turn — “All to the Farm” transforms the
most Parisian of temples luxury into a rural playground. Think egg hunts with real farms, a
nostalgic drugstore stocked with brushes, wooden pins and proper workwear, and a garden
corner blooming with seeds, plants... and bio juices on the side.

It’s more than décor — it’s retail theatre with purpose. A new kind of experiment shopping where
craft, community and curiosity collide.

Young designers step in. The whole family is involved. Luxury loosens up — just enough to let
something raw, simple, and slightly surreal grow through.

Humble meets hyper chic. And suddenly... it feels very now

A Thousand Flowers, One Universal Language

Spring 28 unfolds like a quiet manifesto of flowers.
Not one voice, but a thousand whispers.

Flowers speak a language without borders —
of desire, of tenderness, of strength in bloom.
They belong to no one, and therefore to everyone.

In their multiplicity lies their power:
wild and cultivated, fragile and bold,
each petal a different expression of being.

A wardrobe of flowers is never singular —
it is layered, emotional, alive.

No rules, no divisions, no claims.
Just the simple, radical beauty of blooming.

Showing-off is back.
Whether it’s the celebration of a sculpted body or the new social currency of exclusivity, bodywear is no longer neutral.

And yet - visually, much of the market still speaks the same language.

Bodywear is no longer a side category.

It is one of the most progressive, research-driven and culturally visible segments of performance apparel.

The opportunity?
To move beyond the uniform.
To bring back emotion, identity, and desire.

MORE, BUT BETTER.

Bodywear is no longer a side category. It is one of the most progressive, research-driven and culturally visible segments of performance apparel — yet visually, much of the market still speaks with one voice.

Today’s dominant “yoga uniform” aesthetic has delivered comfort, inclusivity and commercial success. But women’s lives are not uniform. They are layered, emotional, contradictory, ambitious. The next phase of bodywear must reflect that richness.

My presentation at Performance Days explores how textile innovation — in comfort, wellness, health and beauty — can move beyond function and become a driver of narrative. Within the 24-hour wardrobe, bodywear is not just what we train in. It is what we live in.

At Performance Days Munich I present SEVEN concepts for design and merchandising where functionality meets desire, where technology meets emotion, and where awareness of health and safety becomes part of brand storytelling.

IS BROWN THE NEW BLACK?

Excited to see lingerie and bodywear stepping confidently into fashion colour.

Chocolate brown and brownish reds signal a shift toward a richer, more expressive mood — in
both fashion and interiors. There’s a subtle Art Deco whisper in the air: velvets, jacquards, a
touch of dandy attitude. Satin is back. Even leathery finishes feel relevant again.

In bodywear, brown becomes the new “dark neutral.” Softer than black. More layered. More
sensual.

It mixes beautifully with buttery yellow, warm ecru, powder pinks and lilacs — creating depth
without aggression.

Brown isn’t safe. It’s cultivated.

And in a 24-hour wardrobe mindset, it moves seamlessly from lounge to street to statement.
