Each season, Parisian brand Coperni takes their audience into the future with bold and unpredictable shows. From robot dogs, to spray-on dresses, the brand knows how to make a buzzy statement. This season, the Fall-Winter 2025 show stayed true to the theme of futurism by looking back to the golden ages of LAN parties. The show was a love letter to the glory days of the dial-up internet, bringing back the energy of 90s LAN parties—those chaotic, cable-filled gatherings where gamers came together in the name of connection and competition. In today’s hyperconnected and isolating digital world, Coperni tapped into the nostalgia of an era when the internet was new, thrilling, and in a way, more connected in a profoundly human way.
With over 200 gamers lining the floor of the massive adidas Arena in the 18th arrondissement of Paris, the vibe was fresh and fun. As the show started, the gamers kept gaming with VIP guests and celebrities sitting between each player; pulsing lights and models walked around the long line of desks while Fortnite and other games flashed across the screens.
The collection evolved like a video game, each look a new level. Sharp-shouldered jackets with elastic straps merge corporate strength with digital precision, while pale yellow bodysuits contrasted under oversized blazers reaffirmed the no-pants theme we’ve seen so far this season. SSX-inspired parkas paired with cargo-pocketed tights and nylons for a futuristic uniform.
Distressed, low-slung jeans with dragon embroidery nod to The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, while asymetric pleated short skirts evoked teenage nostalgia. Models wore Lara Croft-style headbands for resilience, grounded by Resident Evil-inspired leather boots.
Digital elements shaped the fabrics and accessories—pearl textiles mimic screen static, digital code blooms into floral prints, and sleek skirts with leather straps offer an edgy elegance. The popular Swipe bag was transformed into a Tamagotchi Swipe case, while Ray-Ban Meta x Coperni Wayfarers merge AI and fashion, worn by Amelia Gray and Issa Lish.
The show ended and began with couture sleeping bag dresses in white and vibrant red with models hands tucked in at the tummy—a tribute to overnight LAN marathons, symbolizing all-nighters, missions completed, and the thrill of transformation.
This season, Coperni didn’t just celebrate nostalgia—it reimagined the past to shape the future, proving that style and technology can exist in perfect harmony.
