The 29 Most-Wanted Luxury Buys of Summer 2025, Period

Now that the spring/summer 2025 collections have landed in stores and made their way into fashion people's closets and onto the street, it's time to report on what is actually resonating in the wild. Let's face it—not everything we loved on the runway will translate into a practical item worthy of our already-maxed-out closets.
