Maltese fashion house Charles & Ron recently presented their highly anticipated Spring/Summer 2025 collection, Beneath the Waves, a celebration of the vibrant underwater world that surrounds the Maltese Islands, particularly the stunning waters of Gozo.
Drawing inspiration from the Mediterranean’s captivating marine life, the collection showcases the designers’ deep connection to their local environment.
“We’ve always found Malta and Gozo to be a constant source of inspiration, and this season we wanted to delve deeper into the world beneath the waves,” says Charles & Ron. “In a world that feels increasingly chaotic, the calm and serenity of the underwater world offers an escape—one that must be preserved and cherished.”
The collection’s silhouettes mirror the flowing movements of the ocean, with delicate chiffon, organza, and silk fabrics lending a sense of fluidity to dresses that seem to sway like the sea itself. The soft, ethereal textures of hand-beaded tulle and organic cotton add richness and depth, while vibrant prints highlight the beauty of the Mediterranean marine life.
The colour palette draws directly from the hues of the sea, with shades of turquoise, blue lagoon, sky blue, and coral, contrasted by bursts of red, purple and white, creating a harmonious blend of colours that evoke the underwater world.
Beneath the Waves will be available in C&R boutiques and online from early 2025. For pre or custom orders one can get in touch with the team at sales@charlesandron.com A selection of jewellery and handbags from the collection will get an early release and will be available in stores this December.
