The North Face and Cecilie Bahnsen Unveil a Fall/Winter 2025 Collection

— October 24, 2025 — Fashion
The North Face and Cecilie Bahnsen Fall/Winter 2025 collection continues the partnership between technical performance and high fashion. Reinterpreting The North Face’s outdoor icons through Bahnsen’s romantic aesthetic, the capsule features voluminous silhouettes, floral appliqués, and quilted textures that blend femininity with function. Classic pieces like the Nuptse jacket and Base Camp duffel are transformed with maxi proportions, soft palettes, and layered detailing that reflect Bahnsen’s sculptural design language.

Comprising six apparel styles and two footwear models, the collection explores duality between protection and elegance. Down-filled coats feature peplum backs, while insulated skirts and structured outerwear emphasize warmth without sacrificing form. The collaboration highlights how technical craftsmanship and couture sensibility can coexist, creating apparel that moves effortlessly between the mountain and the city while redefining modern outdoor luxury.
