# LNY-Inspired Technical Fashion Stone Island Presents the Year of the Snake Collection By Amy Duong | Published 2025-01-05 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/year-of-the-snake-collection-1 References: [ssense](https://www.ssense.com/en-us/men/designers/stone-island)  January 29th marks the [Lunar New Year](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vivienne-westwoods-lunar-new-year) and [Stone Island](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stone-island-earth-mapping-camouflage) celebrates with the new [Year of the Snake collection](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/year-of-the-snake1) to ring in 2025. The Italian brand highlights the '025 capsule comprised of jackets, joggers, sweaters, tees, and baseball hats. It has understated looks with a focus on the symbolic animal of the year. The snake's curves are done in a way that aligns with the aesthetics of the imprint. The front and back of the outerwear are detailed with red stitching which stands out in contrast to the grey and black clothing palette. The special wavy quilting reflects the snake's flexible character. Additionally, the sleeves boast a modular function -- they can be removed and press the new year's 'spirit of transformation and rebirth.'
