The mother daughter duo, Najla and Cynthia Burt, of Dur Doux scored another hit with their ‘Visages des Femmes’ spring 2025 collection. Though this collection focused mostly on garments that were of the resort variety, the looks were bold, colorful with a wide consumer appeal.
This vibrant collection contained rich, striking colorful palettes of rich tangerine, canary yellow, chartreuse, goldenrod, and natural greens. Add to these tropical tones refined watercolor portraits and you have a collection that will make consumers yearn for lazy exotic locations with tropical breezes and sun-kissed beaches.
Najla and Cynthia Burt also introduced their men’s ‘Casa Cotiere’ capsule collection during this spring 2025 outing. Created for that free-spirited male consumer, this capsule collection contained relaxed linen shirts, short-sleeve button-ups, linen-cotton pants, hand-washable shorts, and swim trunks. ‘Casa Cotiere’ dresses a man at every jointure of his day while he is enjoying balmy breezes and tropical nights.
Najla and Cynthia Burt chose to present their spring 2025 collection outside in narrow confines of Walker Street, in the Soho district of Manhattan. While not exactly a sun-kissed beach, this venue was a much-needed change from some of the stale venues that have now become too much of a part of New York Fashion Week (NYFW).
And having the male and female models strut down narrow Walker Street side by side gave a nostalgic look back to the golden age of runway shows of the 1970s and 1980s. (Who cannot forget Pat Cleveland strutting down the runway arm in arm with Tony Spinelli.)
What also stands out about this collection is the mother/daughter duo’s knowledge of what consumers want to wear, while incorporating the current trends of diaphanous fabrics, sequins, and sheer looks. That said, this collection should have a lot of retail value with the evening garments that standouts of the collection.
