This season, 3.PARADIS walks us into the desert, not just as a place, but as a state of mind. Titled Steps to Nowhere, the collection takes its name from the ephemeral sidewalk art of Matthew Courtney, whose work explored the space between presence and absence. That same tension lingers here, in clothes that feel both grounded and transient, like footprints in sand that might vanish with the next gust of wind.

The desert is the guiding metaphor: infinite, silent, a mirage that tricks time. Silhouettes mirror its contradictions: flowing nomadic drapes meet sharp tailoring, as if the wearer is caught between wandering and standing still. A Fuchsia Illusion Bomber shimmers like heat distortion, its familiar shape made unfamiliar. Sand-baked neutrals dye textured overshirts, while an hourglass motif repeats like a reminder: nothing lasts, but everything leaves a mark.

Collaborations deepen the journey. With J.M. Weston, classic moccasins and open shoes appear in Tuareg blue and fuchsia, their soles dipped in 3.PARADIS’ signature blue. A partnership with Le Petit Prince brings celestial embroidery, the little prince under a starry sky, a nod to Saint-Exupéry’s themes of solitude and wonder. And with Vilebrequin, swim shorts transform the French Riviera into a surreal Eden, printed with dreamy clouds and tropical landscapes.
