This week on Wisdom from the Wardrobe, we’re digging deep—literally and figuratively—into fashion’s past and future. In our "In the News" segment, we marvel at a medieval bishop’s ring, lost for centuries and recently unearthed in a Norfolk field. With its hexagonal sapphire, emeralds, and garnets set in pristine gold, it’s a reminder that great style (and great jewelry) is meant to be worn, no matter what the century.

But while history is dazzling, the future is calling—specifically, the Spring/Summer 2025 fashion trends. This season is throwing subtlety out the window in favor of a bold, personality-driven style. Quiet luxury? It’s stepping aside to make room for pattern clashing, retro influences, and a fresh take on summer plaid. Think beige, black, and baby blue checks—somewhere between Nirvana grunge and countryside charm.

And that’s not all—expect coastal prep done right (not just nautical stripes) and sporty sensibility outerwear that’s as practical as it is stylish. The big question: will SS25 finally show Stacy some love, or is she destined for another season-long breakup? Happy Listening!
