The r.l.e Spring/Summer 2025 collection, "La Mémoire," is a poetic exploration of designer Qixin Zhang's personal journey, inspired by her childhood connection to ballet. Drawing on themes from The Nutcracker, the collection captures the duality of ballet's grace and rigour. It symbolizes transformation, memory, and feminine strength. Delicate fabrics like organza and tulle reflect the lightness of memories, while intricate details such as smocked ribbons and floral embroidery evoke the complexities of personal growth.

Rooted in sustainability, the collection uses the innovative Yuan (圆) Technique, which repurposes fabric scraps into new textiles, reinforcing r.l.e's commitment to eco-friendly fashion. The collection embodies resilience, femininity, and the power of transformation, inviting women to embrace their own stories of growth and independence.
