Yahoo Lifestyle Ungaro Fall 2025: Dance Class
A trip to the Whitney Museum to see an exhibition on choreographer Alvin Ailey fueled Kobi Halperin’s imagination this season. He likened the dance theme to his creative process, in which a garment must be seen in motion, undulating as the body moves. It was also a nod to the joy that dance brings, and how people need such moments in dark times.
In a fall collection dominated by eveningwear pieces designed to be matched and layered, he offered a range of pajama-like satin separates in jewel tones hemmed with feathers, done in wine red, fig purple or celadon green as well as black. Simple bias-cut slipdresses were worn with tone-on-tone ponchos with a scalloped embroidered edge and floor-length fringing details.

Floral prints came with black backgrounds — some blurred, some precise. A minidress in printed lace with fringe detailing was cute. Then there were cape blouses and dresses over-embroidered with crystal flowers, and needless to say the long, plissé chiffon gowns no Ungaro collection would be complete without.
Skirts came with ruffles and frills, nodding to the dance theme, as in a black chiffon and jersey off-the-shoulder gown with a draped bodice and pleated flounces for a skirt, the fine pleats adding graphic contrast to its curves.
Among the tailored pieces, a jacket with guipure and fringe details was a fun option if dresses aren’t your thing, and there were also white tuxedo jackets embroidered with black flowers that looked to be growing from the hem.
