Unplugged: Pre-Autumn dressing beyond the office
Unplugged is Baum und Pferdgarten’s Pre-Autumn 2025 collection, shaped by the shift from office life to time away from the desk. Its starting point is not a strict divide between work and leisure, but the changing pace of a day: considered enough for a meeting, relaxed enough for what follows. The result is a wardrobe of intentional contrasts, where familiar tailoring is loosened by softer details and practical layers meet a lighter sense of movement.
Dresses, shirts, blouses, jackets, knitwear, skirts, shorts, jeans and trousers create a varied approach to getting dressed. There are easy silhouettes alongside more defined shapes, allowing the collection to move between a composed look and something more informal without losing its direction. Explore women's dresses for a fluid counterpoint to the collection’s structured separates.
Structure meets lightness
Workwear-inspired references bring clarity to the collection through utility-leaning separates, patch pockets, collars and purposeful proportions. Relaxed jackets and short-sleeved layers introduce a practical edge, while tailored pieces retain a clean, precise line. These elements are designed to be combined rather than treated as a uniform: a structured layer can sharpen an airy dress, while a softer top can change the mood of a more defined bottom.
The balance is central to Unplugged. Sheer lace, ruffles, rosettes and bows add a more expressive note to otherwise pared-back forms, creating a dialogue between the robust and the delicate. Rather than relying on one mood, the collection lets texture and detail do the work. Look to structured jackets when building outfits around this contrast of utility, tailoring and ease.
Easy dresses and expressive details
Light, airy dresses are a key part of the collection’s off-duty perspective. Long and midi lengths, relaxed forms, fitted ribbed shapes and asymmetric details offer different ways to approach the same idea of ease. Ruffled tiers, fluttering hems, fine straps and adjustable ties introduce movement, while square necklines and more streamlined silhouettes keep the overall expression clear.
Floral prints bring a playful interruption to the collection’s solid neutrals, while sheer and softly textured surfaces lend dimension without overwhelming the silhouette. Elsewhere, crinkled finishes, sparkle and ribbed constructions vary the feel of tops, skirts and cardigans. These details make room for personal styling: a simple base can be offset by a decorative element, or a print-led piece can become the focus against cleaner separates.
Denim and tailoring for changing plans
Denim grounds Unplugged in an everyday register. Jackets, shorts and jeans bring durable-looking structure to the softer side of the collection, with relaxed cuts, wide legs, high waists and classic pocket detailing shaping an unfussy approach. Browse denim layers to pair with lace, lightweight blouses or a more polished jacket, balancing casual texture with considered proportion.
Tailoring extends the collection’s office-to-off-duty language without becoming overly formal. Straight-leg trousers, relaxed shorts and softly shaped blazers offer a framework for coordinated dressing, whether worn together or separated into new combinations. A crisp shirt with tailored trousers creates a composed foundation; a T-shirt, cardigan or decorative top shifts it into a less expected direction.
Across Unplugged, Baum und Pferdgarten’s approach is one of contrast held in balance. Utility references are softened, romantic gestures are given structure, and familiar wardrobe categories are reworked through texture, proportion and detail. It is a collection for changing modes with clarity: from work to downtime, from an organised plan to an open afternoon, and from sharp dressing to something more spontaneous.
