About the brand

Rabanne, formerly known as Paco Rabanne, is a French luxury fashion house founded in 1966 by Spanish-born designer Francisco Rabaneda Cuervo. The brand underwent a significant rebranding in 2023, simplifying its name to Rabanne as it entered a new era uniting fashion and fragrance under one signature lifestyle. From its inception, the house gained international recognition for its revolutionary approach to haute couture, challenging traditional fashion norms with bold experimentation. The brand's distinctive identity stems from its pioneering use of unconventional materials, particularly metal, plastic, and aluminum, earning founder Paco Rabanne the nickname "the metallurgist of fashion" from Coco Chanel. The iconic "12 Unwearable Dresses in Contemporary Materials" collection of 1966 established the house's avant-garde reputation, featuring space-age designs that blended architectural precision with futuristic aesthetics. Today, Rabanne continues to embody innovation and audacity, creating pieces that transcend fleeting trends while maintaining the brand's signature blend of boldness and elegance.

What people are saying

Harper's Bazaar

Exclusive to Net-a-Porter, this navy and silver shoulder bag is a fresh riff on the iconic Paco Rabanne 1969 bag. Consider it the easiest, most impactful way to ignite an evening look: with a futuristic chain-link strap and light-reflecting pailettes, it'll dazzle against slender black dresses, vibrant prints, and more casual party pieces.

After trying on several pieces and finally deciding on the disc top in silver, I have to say that Rabanne pieces are truly stunning works of art. You will feel like a celebrity when wearing them, and the way they reflect light, means all eyes will be on you! The pieces are not the most comfortable, and you'll need to wear a skin-color slip beneath them, but they are so totally worth it!

L'Officiel

Julien Dossena's evolving vision for Rabanne becomes more refined with each season, and the Spring/Summer 2025 collection is no exception. The show highlights the signature elements that have cemented the House's success in ready-to-wear, including jackets layered over half-buttoned shirts, T-shirts, and boxer shorts—elevated basics adorned with silver leaf, a nod to Rabanne's legacy as the fashion metallurgist.

The Glass Magazine

Intricate metal embroideries and shimmering studs outline denim, flowing maxi skirts, and a sheer cut-out top, each detail a wonderful example of the contemporary craftsmanship Rabanne has been known for since its founding.

Who What Wear

This dress deserves a special mention for the fit alone. The floral print is great and the button details are cool (zoom in to get the full effect), but it's the thick, stretchy fabric that makes this truly special. It hugs curves to a smoothing effect and the flared skirt creates perfect balance (as someone who is bottom-heavy, it's exactly the silhouette I always look for).

Who What Wear

Now this is exactly what I was looking for from a collaboration of this calibre. An unfeasibly comfortable (and well-lined) dress that feels like wearing liquid metal. No matter how you move, this dress catches the light and looks completely incredible, with the weightier sequins towards the hem creating a pleasing amount of sway and movement that I honestly believe will flatter everyone.

i've always been in love with the Rabanne metal disc design language and am personally adamant about getting bags from fashion houses that specifically feature their unique design language and visual markers, but the small, 1969 bags in metal are soooo not functional.

I bought a 1969 nano bag a few years ago - still love it! But, with the changing size of the iPhone it is not working as nicely as it once did. Does anyone know if all the 1969 nano bags are all the same size? Just need one a little bit bigger!

The Impression

In being so fantastical, the collection is divorced from reality; it's hard to imagine many women wanting to really wear most of these looks.

Lots of cool things but it just becomes weak because of too many showpieces and over-styling and design. No development of RTW codes other than metal and gold.
