CDLP Spring/Summer 2025: Effortless Layers, Tailored Ease, and Elevated Swimwear
Summer wardrobes often call for a rethink: lighter fabrics, smarter cuts, and the kind of understated polish that works from the city to the coast. CDLP understands this well. For Spring/Summer, the Stockholm-based label doubles down on its formula of relaxed sophistication, adding fresh palettes, sharp tailoring, and a quiet confidence in its new-season collection.
At the heart of the drop is an easy approach to warm-weather dressing. Think lightweight layers and elevated basics, without the fuss. The standout? CDLP's Shirt Jacket and Drawstring Trousers in off-white. Cut with a straight, roomy silhouette, they balance laid-back tailoring with crisp details like curved patch pockets and contrasting horn buttons. Both are finished with a papery texture that gives a tactile edge to their clean lines.
If off-white feels too pristine, CDLP offers a tonal alternative in hazel beige. The Camp Collar Shirt, Bermuda Shorts, and Semi-Tailored Trousers form a trio worth noting. Crafted from a linen and Tencel Lyocell blend, the fabric brings breathability and a subtle drape to the mix. The relaxed cuts, elasticated waists, and corozo buttons all nod to CDLP's knack for casual refinement.
Swimwear is where CDLP flexes a bit more muscle this season. The Swim Trunks Long, a longer-legged take on their signature trunks, arrives in staple shades of white, dark olive, and black. Crafted from recycled nylon poplin, they balance utility with style thanks to metal trims, a zip back pocket, and supportive mesh lining. For those who prefer to make more of a statement poolside, the new marble-effect prints are worth a look: the neon-accented Lime Rock and the rust-toned Mahogany Rock bring a dose of playful cool to an otherwise understated lineup.
Even the briefs get a considered upgrade. The Swim Brief in Botanical Slate and the Box Cut Brief in Botanical Moss both use Econyl®—a recycled nylon fibre made from landfill and ocean waste. Not only do they look sharp, but they tick the eco box too.
Across the board, CDLP keeps things tight and purposeful. The colour palette stays muted but fresh, cuts are generous without being sloppy, and the materials push the conversation on sustainability forward without compromising on style. It’s a collection that works just as well for a low-key getaway as it does for high-summer city life.
Consider this your nudge to get ahead of the season. Whether you're curating your summer wardrobe or just looking to upgrade your swim rotation, CDLP is making a strong case for doing both with quiet conviction.
