Bernadette Fall 2025: Softly Easing In
For the first runway show of their six-year-old label Bernadette, mother-daughter duo Bernadette and Charlotte de Geyter wanted to tell a story of intimate femininity to match a brand shaped by their familial bond.
They zeroed in on the bedroom as a place for retreat and renewal, inspiring a collection titled “Sacred Women, Secret World.”

It is not a place for seduction but “a very cinematic, intimate space where a woman can recharge,” Charlotte de Geyter told WWD ahead of the show. “That’s very important for womanhood and it’s a very special moment in the bedroom where she gets ready every day.”
A breezy vibe defined this collection, rife with the pretty dresses that have put Bernadette on the map and firmly in the wardrobes of its growing client base.
Pearls dotted along the neckline of a fuzzy sweater, embroidered stars and moons, and flowers printed in buds and blooms added charming touches that alluded to celestial and natural cycles.
Among the standouts were an A-line minidress that looked like it had just slipped off a shoulder; a long white coat with large pearls as buttons; floral-print satin coordinates; tailored trousers, and pencil skirts in black and pinstriped suiting fabric.
For Bernadette devotees, the softer, almost watercolor prints would feel fresh while those unfamiliar with the brand had a soft easing into its world.
