The collection exudes a vibrant energy with its vivid prints and playful designs. Zimmermann’s Matchmaker line showcases the brand’s signature style, blending masculine influences with hints of lingerie for a unique aesthetic. Barkcloth floral prints and checked coordinated sets are paired with jewelled rolled sleeve shirts and micro-shorts, embodying Zimmermann’s sense of playfulness. The pieces feature a mix of feminine elements such as full circle skirts buoyed by petticoats, bodices in vest shapes tied with rope belts, and pencil skirts with exaggerated hip shapes. Contrasting this, the collection also includes boxy denim separates like cropped jackets and barrel leg jeans, as well as an unwashed blue boiler suit for a more edgy look. The attention to detail is evident with mirrored and crystal-adorned cat-eye sunglasses adding a touch of 50s-inspired glamour. Masculine influences are seamlessly blended with lingerie-inspired accents, resulting in a captivating and sophisticated ensemble.
The collection also incorporates signature Zimmermann touches, such as hand-gathered cloud skirts with corset waists and low tank scoop necklines adorned with the brand’s signature florals. Bandana placement prints take center stage, offering a range of signature party pieces designed to ignite a sense of fun and excitement. Lemon sorbet velvet, 3D sculptural flowers, paper daisy adornments, and swirling ruffles add texture and opulence to the garments. Monotone prints featuring abstract jazz motifs and symbols create a sense of artistic abstraction, while tambourines make unexpected appearances as ear cuffs and jewellery charms. To complete the look, jewelled headbands and sparkly flats add a touch of glamour, capturing attention as they dazzle on the dancefloor.
