World Chocolate Day is today, and darling, it’s time to dress like the richest truffle in the box! Forget basic brownies. 2025’s fashion scene is all about indulgence, and Zimmermann’s Cruise 2026 “Twisted Romance” collection is serving decadent looks that pair perfectly with your chocolate obsession. Inspired by pirate adventures and New Romantic flair, these Mykonos-shot designs blend floaty silks, sharp denim, and whimsical prints that scream “dessert chic.” Ready to style these runway gems for a World Chocolate Day glow-up? Let’s melt into the sweetest trends and kick off New Face Magazine’s designer spotlight series with a cocoa-coated bang!
Cocoa Couture: Zimmermann’s Chocolate-Toned Silks and Denim
Zimmermann’s Cruise 2026 is a treasure chest of cocoa, caramel, and coffee hues. Think Rebellion Corded Maxi Dress in spliced floral or the Orla Buckle Sandal in Coffee. These rich, earthy tones, seen in looks like the Rebellion Denim Bodice in Night Sky, are your go-to for a luxurious chocolate-inspired wardrobe. Nicky Zimmermann’s play of fluid silks against structured denim (hello, Rebellion Low-Rise Flare Jean!) feels like dipping a biscuit in hot cocoa. Sophisticated yet playful.
How to Savor It: Channel a chocolate ganache vibe with the Rebellion Corded Gown in Ivory, styled with the Malley Belt in Coffee for a cinched, decadent silhouette. Pair with gold Solara Necklaces for a molten glow. For daytime, rock the Rebellion Denim Jacket in Night Sky with a creamy silk blouse. It's giving
café au lait. Add a metallic clutch to mimic chocolate foil wrapping. Pro tip: Monochrome coffee tones are your power move, but a pop of burgundy (like the Goldentime Fringe Tote) adds a cherry cordial twist.

Pastel Piracy: Macaron Hues with Zimmermann’s Prints
Zimmermann’s illustrative prints are to die for. Imagine maritime maps and mythical sea creatures on silk georgette. Bring a patisserie-worthy palette of pistachio, lavender, and strawberry cream. The Rebellion Drawn Mini Dress in Beige or the spliced floral Corded Blouse channels macaron stacks with a swashbuckling edge. These soft hues are your ticket to a dessert-inspired look that’s equal parts sweet and rebellious.
How to Savor It: Slip into the Rebellion Striped Mini Dress in Spliced Stripes for a pistachio-and-cream moment perfect for a World Chocolate Day brunch. Style with Orla Slide Sandals in Coffee and a Solara Bracelet for a sprinkle of sparkle. Mix pastels like a pro: pair a lavender Rebellion Drawn Top with a strawberry-pink midi skirt. A crossbody Archer Bag in Coffee ties it back to chocolatey roots, keeping the look grounded yet dreamy.

Textural Temptations: Whipped Silks and Velvety Details
Zimmermann’s game of textures is on point! Floaty silks, plush cords, and slouchy pirate boots mimics whipped cream and glossy ganache. The Rebellion Corded Mini Dress in spliced floral feels like a dollop of mousse, while the Orla Boot in Moss adds a velvety finish. Ruched details and dynamic shapes evoke the fluff of a chocolate soufflé, making every outfit a tactile delight.
How to Savor It: Drape yourself in the Rebellion Corded Blouse and Bustier in spliced floral for a whipped-cream effect—layer with the Rebellion Denim Midi Skirt in Night Sky for contrast. The silky flow screams red-carpet ganache, so add Solara Earrings for extra drip. For a cozier take, try the Rebellion Drawn Sweater in Red/Cream Stripe with beige cargo pants—think hot cocoa with marshmallows. Ruching is your friend for that airy, dessert-like bounce.

Sprinkle of Rebellion: Zimmermann’s Embellished Accents
Zimmermann’s accessories are the sprinkles on your chocolate sundae. From Solara Chokers to Mellow Stone Necklaces, these pieces add a playful, beaded charm. Prints like spliced stripes and floral drizzles (see the Rebellion Drawn Top) mimic sugar swirls, while cherry-red accents in the Brisa Oversize Bag scream “cherry on top.” It’s nautical nostalgia with a confectionery twist.
How to Savor It: Rock the Rebellion Striped Mini Dress with Solara Earrings and a Mellow Stone Necklace for a sprinkle-dusted look. A cherry-red scarf or belt adds a pop that says “maraschino magic.” For drama, pair the Rebellion Corded Maxi Dress with pirate-inspired Orla Boots in Moss, it's a chocolate tart with a rebellious crust. Beaded details or pearl accents (like the Byron Chain Necklace) are your sugar pearls for extra glam.

Candy-Coated Accessories: Zimmermann’s Playful Finish
Zimmermann’s bags and shoes are pure dessert fantasy. For me, it's the striped totes evoking vintage candy wrappers or the Archer Crossbody in Coffee as a chocolate bar in leather form. The Orla Buckle Sandal in Moss and Fringe Crossbody in Taupe bring tactile fun, perfect for a World Chocolate Day strut. These pieces make your outfit as craveable as a praline.
How to Savor It: Elevate a simple chocolate-brown slip dress with the Goldentime Large Fringe Tote in Burgundy Stripe—its drama screams “dessert diva.” Or, pair the Rebellion Drawn Mini Dress with Orla Slide Sandals in Coffee and a Solara Fish Necklace for a candy-charm vibe. A structured Archer Crossbody in Coffee is your everyday truffle, polished yet playful.
