When we met on Zoom, Rag & Bone’s Robert Geller had just returned from showing his latest fall 2025 menswear collection at Florence’s Pitti Uomo. It was the designer’s second time attending the fair since becoming Rag & Bone’s head of menswear design, and the influence of being around hardcore menswear aficionados might have rubbed off on him.
New this season to Rag & Bone was the introduction of its most formal piece yet—a classic tuxedo. The label as we are most familiar with is known for casual yet stylish essentials like bomber jackets, set wear, and of course denim: this season R&B is offering fancier pieces like tuxedo jackets and dressier versions of suit pants. If past iterations of those included looser fits that gave a more effortless look, this season saw a more tapered leg on upscale wool fabrications that lean more formal. But staying true to his laissez-faire style, Geller incorporated some of his cool-without-trying aesthetic into the styling. Underneath the formal suits, the model wore a casual sweater layered over a button-up shirt, or had his tie loosened, staying true to Geller’s relaxed approach to fashion.
