Taking inspiration from Sicilian Baroque architecture in Noto to the serene coastlines of Puglia and the vineyards of Mount Etna, Naeem Khan delivered his Spring/Summer 2025 collection with a runway show at the Angel Orensanz Foundation during New York Fashion Week earlier this month.

The show concluded with a special tribute to Universal Pictures’ upcoming film, Wicked, showcasing a captivating finale, demonstrating the powerful symphony between fashion and film. The Mumbai-born designer brought the essence of characters Elphaba and Glinda to life with his vivid mix of green, pink, and black designs. Each piece echoed the unique styles and moods of the highly anticipated film, bringing the fantastical world of Oz to life through fashion.

“The Wicked theme was met to perfection,” actress Vivica A. Fox gushed after the show.
