S.S.DALEY's Womenswear Debut "No Suffix, Prefix or Quote" Is Straight To the Point

As a gamer who’s spent countless hours in the medieval-themed MMORPG realms, I must say that S.S.DALEY’s Spring/Summer 2025 collection felt like a breath of fresh air in the London Fashion Week scene. The intricate floral embroidery, elaborate crotchet socks, and antiquated blazers were reminiscent of my character’s ancient armor, but with a modern twist that even my level 90 warrior self would approve!

Steven Stokey-Daley is the man of the hour. The Liverpool-born designer opened London Fashion Week with a significant milestone, showcasing his first womenswear collection at London’s Royal Academy. Unexpectedly attended by the likes of Harry Styles and Emma Corrin, S.S.DALEY’s Spring/Summer 2025 “No Suffix, Prefix or Quote” collection got straight to the point.

Following appearances at Pitti Uomo 105 and Harry Styles’s investment in British label S.S.DALEY, anticipation for his next presentation was higher than ever. However, his debut in women’s fashion remained refined with just 24 streamlined looks, as he reimagined his traditional medieval and sophisticated style tailored for the most stylish ladies. The emphasis on detail was crucial at S.S.DALEY, as vintage-style jackets opened the show boasting intricate floral embroidery, peeking shirt collars, and ornate crochet socks.

Afterward, intricately handcrafted skirts created a pixelated appearance, showcasing vibrant florals from both past and future eras. Vintage waistcoats flared at the knees, adding a touch of elegance when paired with wild fur ties that seemed untamed. The collection exuded luxury, featuring fitted double-breasted coats that accentuated the waist while providing warmth through fur collar trims. S.S.DALEY continues to embrace the lingering summer spirit, as his latest designs incorporate blooming florals onto formal ensembles and leather-trimmed trench coats. Undulating gingham fabrics draped over sheer maxi skirts combined with light tank tops, ideal for alfresco picnics, concluded the collection with embroidered angel motifs on crewnecks, see-through organza outfits, and heavy fringed handbags.

In summary, S.S.DALEY showcased his exceptional skills once again for SS25, and his inaugural women’s collection was no exception. The designs were crisp, polished, and sprinkled with a touch of ancient elegance, further emphasizing Daley’s versatility as a designer.
