As a fashion enthusiast with a deep appreciation for cultural heritage and craftsmanship, I was utterly captivated by Peter Do’s Spring 2025 collection at Musée Guimet. Having spent years admiring Asian art, it felt like stepping into a dream to witness such a stunning fusion of tradition and modernity.
On Tuesday afternoon in Paris, the ornate halls filled with sculptures at Musée Guimet served as the backdrop for Peter Do’s Spring 2025 runway show. This museum, boasting one of the world’s largest Asian art collections outside Asia, provided a fitting and solemn setting for Do, a Vietnamese designer whose personal background aligns with the collection’s origins. For his latest fashion project, Do teamed up with Philip Huang’s Bangkok studio.
Entitled “Grounded,” this collection challenged conventional summer tailoring by incorporating lightweight materials like featherweight wool, silk, and chiffon. These fabrics took a total of six months to produce at Huang’s Thailand workshop before they were sent to Paris. The color scheme—featuring oxblood, stone, and midnight shades—was inspired by natural elements such as leaves, tree bark, fire, and air. Each color was produced using age-old techniques in an attempt to maintain traditional dyeing practices.
Mary H.K. Choi wondered in her show notes when did exertion become something to be ashamed of. She noticed everything was so polished and sleek now, with no rough edges or evidence of hard work. It seemed as though any admission of manual labor, struggle, or resistance would be seen as humiliating.
Absolutely, I’ve been giving it my all this season, creating my beloved oversized styles, showing off the back details, garment-dyed “Vietnam” T-shirts, and a brand-new technical satin “168” uniform, inspired by the 168 hours in a week. My coordinated collection features modular shapes, all in black and adorned with tattoo designs – a preview of my upcoming signature style that only those in the know will understand.
In essence, the designer’s aspiration for the lightweight design was straightforward: “I just want these pieces not to make people feel overly hot,” he remarked backstage with a modest laugh. Given the collection’s intricate openings, revealing silhouettes, and bias cuts, it can be confidently stated that his customers will remain comfortable.
