The Isabel Marant Resort 2024 collection focused on tailoring and strong graphics, mixing earthy tones with emerald, raspberry, and yellow, borrowing from the early Y2K playbook.

“It’s graphic yet also minimalist, in a way,” Artistic Director Kim Bekker said. “It lets you play up contrast in an elevated way while also making a very Marant statement.” A white shirtdress thrown over mustard python thigh-highs was one of several one-and-done looks.

Slender-slouchy tailored trousers were paired with a soft leather jacket. A carpet-motif bomber from seasons past provided inspiration for a sequined mini. Coated metallic eyelets on a black slip dress with mismatched straps (one spaghetti, the other wider) put a fresh twist on the minimalist trope. A swirl of micro-mosaic print—in shades of green or earth tones on a couple of dresses—seemed to mimic the famed cobblestone streets of Paris.

Metallic accessories like blown glass jewelry tinted gold from the inside and shoes with jeweled petals also made a strong statement. But ultimately, more than any one particular piece or look, it’s attitude that has always made Marant synonymous with French style. “The Isabel Marant girl has evolved into someone who can adapt different vibes and elements from culture, art, and music and make it her own,” noted Bekker. Put those shoes with an oversized black tuxedo, or throw on ’80s-inflected low boots with a crunchy dress in coated jersey, and you’re just about there.
