Summer 2025 by Julia Marino
An exploration of the S/S25 collection, our latest editorial represents a change of pace. Time dilates; the franticness of our daily lives recede. Were it not for the sun that hangs above us, conjuring shadows and dappled shade, it would be easy to ignore time altogether. A slowness that matches the simmering heat of Jamaica permeates the images of Julia Marino, taken just as another day draws to a close.
Shades of dusky pink and beige appear across our garment-dyed Nelson Sweatshirts and Shorts, reflective of the sky at sunset. Relaxed fits, dropped shoulders, and cinching rib-knit trims underpin a sense of ease and comfort.
With their loose silhouettes, the Double Knee Pant and Women’s Brandon Short follow suit, complemented by airy cotton long-sleeve shirts and breathable mesh t-shirts. Meanwhile, two new skirts are introduced to the women’s collection, including a lightweight cargo style and a short-length canvas piece, featuring elements which nod to our classic work pants.
Julia Marino is a Dutch-Italian photographer based in Paris, whose work explores human connection while fostering a dialogue with her portrait subjects. This March, she debuts the publication A Reflection on Belonging alongside stylist Rebecca Purshouse, examining their personal ties to the Parisian community, while honoring photographers such as Samuel Fosso and Malick Sidibé.

fdecarlo@carhartt-wip.comAbout Carhartt Work In Progress
Carhartt Work In Progress (WIP) is a clothing brand that adapts and modifies the core products of the pioneering American workwear brand Carhartt to create its own collections. Established in 1994 by Edwin Faeh, the brand’s audience is as likely to associate its iconic yellow ‘C’ motif with late 90s hip hop videos or skate clips as they are with factories or manual labor. This distinction is key when defining Carhartt WIP.
Carhartt WIP engages with different cultural spheres: from Detroit and Berlin’s symbiotic techno scenes, to skateboarding and its communities that span Paris, New York, and Seoul, to the contemporary art world. The brand channels these influences, reflecting the culture that has formed around it. This can be seen and felt in its collections, imagery, and collaboration partners. Today, Carhartt WIP operates over 100 brick and mortar retail stores across Europe, Asia, and the US, as well as working with select wholesale clients.
