Evan Hirsch, the maestro of convertible fashion, presented his Spring/Summer 2025 collection to a packed house on a rooftop just off Times Square during NYFW. While several of his looks employed his trademark convertibility, this season, he grew the collection to incorporate classic offerings as well as his looks that trick the eye and cause onlookers to question what they just saw.
The story this season, however, is the designer's fabric selections. Faced with his parents selling of his childhood home on New York's Long Island, Evan was lamenting the loss of the place he turned to in his youth to seek solace and comfort. He realized that he would be forced to rely on photos to remember the curtains in his room, or the wallpaper in the kitchen. For a designer, these visual cues held meaningful places in his visual lexicon that influence his work today.
Evan's solution was to not let the fabrics of his early life go so easily. He gathered them all together and used them as the foundations of his S/S 2025 collection!
Patterns that once graced his sister's bedroom windows now became a strapless mini-dress with a bow at the waist. His mother's kitchen drapes became a two piece day ensemble. Why not use pillows from his Grandmother to create a ball gown? In Evan's world of creativity, nothing is off limits!
"When my parents put my childhood home up for sale in June of this year, I was heartbroken. Going through all of my accumulated possessions and mementos was a difficult task," says Evan Hirsch. "But even worse was watching all of the details that made my home unique were ripped from walls, shelves, and cabinets. It was then that I decided to pay tribute to home the best way I knew how, through my designs."
Evan's designs weren't the only moment catching the eye of the onlooker this season. Evan partnered with MiaDonna, The Eco Diamond Company, to show a 21.06 carat Emerald cut diamond on several of his ensembles. The diamond was nearly 19mm x 13mm x 9mm in size and left the audience in awe.
