CANDICE Looks to '70s Cinema and Bush Traditions for FW25
“Frog Dreaming” drops later this month.
Summary:
- CANDICE’s FW25 “Frog Dreaming” blends Australian landscapes, subcultures and ’70s and ’80s cinema nostalgia
- Workwear, trekking and athletic staples are reimagined with vintage washes and utilitarian ease
- The collection will release globally on August 27
CANDICE has never been a brand to play it safe. For Fall/Winter 2025, the label dives into uncharted terrain with “Frog Dreamin,” a collection that feels both ruggedly local and strikingly global.
Drawing from Australia’s untamed landscapes and the subcultures that pulse within them, “Frog Dreaming” channels an aesthetic of fluid creativity and layered storytelling. The collection nods to a forgotten era of Australian cinema in the ’70s and ’80s, weaving nostalgic graphic references into garments that celebrate bush life, athletic codes and utilitarian traditions.
Silhouettes lean into function, such as workwear staples reinterpreted through softened lines, trekking gear reimagined with a contemporary ease and vintage washes that evoke the rawness of the terrain. Accessories underscore the narrative, grounding the collection in CANDICE’s ongoing dialogue between memory, landscape and the fluid identities of its wearers.
The result is a wardrobe that feels lived-in yet cinematic, bridging past and present. As with every CANDICE season, the unexpected becomes the point where pieces designed to slip between worlds, made for those who prefer their fashion untethered.
“Frog Dreaming” will release globally on August 27 via CANDICE’s website.
