Yahoo Lifestyle Natasha Zinko Spring 2025 Ready to Wear: Plastic Fantastic
Natasha Zinko explored a whole other side of the luxury goods industry, plastic surgery, in a thought-provoking collection that took in cotton, silicone, sheer fabrics – and bandages.
Models wore coats that resembled hospital gowns with ties at the back, and papery, elasticated overshoes like surgeons might sport in the operating room. Instead of hats or hairpieces they wore bandage-like, post-facelift compression masks.

Plastic, see-through sleeves adorned jackets and tops, while 3-D printed, transparent “implants” popped from the back of short shorts, or the front of sexy tops.
Zinko said she was eager to explore perfection, and look at “what is going on with people who add to their bodies,” and medically alter themselves.
The venue was suitably cold and spare. Models paraded outside, past a long, horizontal wall of windows before stepping into the room to flash their flesh, faux implants and bandages.
Many of these looks veered toward the gimmicky, but this is firmly Zinko’s territory. She dresses a host of musicians on and off-stage, including Doja Cat.
The more subdued looks were the best ones, including the outfit that Zinko herself was wearing: an oversized cotton button-down shirt and shorts that had been slicked with a fine coat of silicone.
Denim had swagger. Looks included Zinko’s signature XXXL jeans, ragged-edged skirts, and low-slung trousers.
Sheer gowns worn with reworked, men’s style underwear, or corsets, radiated a laid-back elegance while fine-gauge, wooly knee socks, lent a cozy touch to Zinko’s world of clinical, strange perfection.
