Simone Belloti is settling into his role at Bally, returning to Milan Fashion Week to present his third collection for the luxury house. While last season saw rural spirits meet coded metropolitan uniforms, Spring/Summer 2025 recalls Zurich’s Dada artistic movement from centuries past.

Belloti lets his inner child run wild for SS25, reevaluating his contemporary design language with rounded shoulders and bold primary hues. A playful energy was vital this season, seeing Bally balance real and imaginary spirits across staple silhouettes deconstructed and rebuilt proudly.

Belloti returned to his first show venue in the heart of Milan, crowded by historic gardens under the Italian sunshine. The 56-look collection harnesses elevated sophistication with an unmistakable edge, utilizing rough-cut leather, crinkled textiles, and pleated denim across renewed silhouettes. German author and poet Hugo Ball influenced SS25’s rounded figures, molding the body in exaggerated trench coats, frozen suiting, and ruffled outerwear with cocooning shoulders.

Elsewhere in the collection, cropped leather jackets were paired with asymmetrical skirts and studded handbags, followed by mesh-lined vests and peplumed attire with an extravagant aura. Collarless outerwear was grouped at the shoulders to create unrealistic shapes, while daily overcoats, floral-printed knitwear, and warped Canadian tuxedos complete the collection with an abstract advantage.

Take a closer look at Bally’s SS25 “Counterpoint 3” collection in the gallery above, and stay tuned for more fashion month coverage on Hypebeast.
