MFW SS17: Gucci
PLUSH and pink was the setting for Alessandro Michele’s SS17 Gucci offering, in a showy show that flirted with all the trimmings of a Wes Anderson-ian fairytale. As the star of the collection, the clothing took...
MFW AW16: DiLiborio
IN MILAN this season Liborio Capizzi, the Sicilian born prêt-à -porter provocateur with a couturier’s sensibility, presented Transgenia to the fashion press in the Italian fashion capital. Making a uni...
MFW AW16: Giorgio Armani
SHE wore black velvet, blacker then velvet was the night this season at Giorgio Armani AW16. This plush choice of cloth was at the pinnacle of the Italian designer’s latest collection, which lavished all attent...
MFW AW16: Prada
Miuccia Prada already gave us a taste of her AW16 collection back in January during MFW Men’s as she had girls in sailor hats and wool stockings with chequered playing-cards suit pattern intruding into the men’...
MFW AW16: Tod’s
For AW16, Alessandra Facchinetti continued with the theme of the cool girl that she set last season for Tod’s. Only this time, she’s not in a rock band anymore. Whatever she does, she does it well-dressed in lu...
MFW AW16: Bottega Veneta
Tomas Maier proved himself undisputedly as one of the most mature designers on the block in Milan this season with his AW16 collection for Bottega Veneta. Producing clothing of a discerning confidence, what mor...
MFW AW16: Versace
At Versace this season Donatella Versace ticked all the right boxes for the modern Versace woman, empowered in such a way that she is neither restricted by her wardrobe choices nor her right to display her own ...
MFW AW16: Moschino
This season, Jeremy Scott showed himself to be a designer much more suitable to lead a house in new directions that don’t include Spongebob Squarepants or the Powerpuff Girls in Milan. Far from that, the only m...
MFW AW16: Roberto Cavalli
In Milan this season Roberto Cavalli’s Peter Dundas worked his magic at the Italian fashion house, once again adopting the decadent boho-luxe of the moment and bringing it to Cavalli in manner of fact, frilly e...
MFW SS16: Cristiano Burani
What do you get when you take a chunk of ‘60s, a dash of the ‘70s, a slight sprinkle of ‘90s streetwear and a whole lot of colour? Cristiano Burani’s SS16 collection. It was an eye opening blend of the 20th cen...
MFW SS16: Fendi
Bloomers. Thanks, Karl. According to Milan’s most formidable trend-maker, those peculiarly gathered shorts are what we’ll all be wearing come Spring.
That said, if anyone can make sure a long-forgotten piece...
MFW SS16: Marni
A lot of Marni’s collection for SS16 in many ways didn’t exactly resemble the usual and expected attire for the spring/summer season. Models with lashes like blinking eye dolls and tied up glossy hair with a 19...
MFW SS16: Giorgio Armani
Giorgio Armani’s masterful hand was at work in Milan this season and did not make one single slip. A firecracker red was the colour the designer singled out among others for SS16, but despite this intense hue A...
MFW SS16: DSquared2
At Dsquared2 this season powerhouse twosome Dean and Dan Caten did things their way and were generally onto a winner when it came to kooky summery clothing, tinged with a strappy, slinky beachwear theme that is...
MFW SS16: Moschino
The success story of Moschino by Jeremy Scott rags and instant riches continued this season in which the references were as heavily applied as ever, with Scott flicking through the fashion history books and rew...
MFW SS16: Dolce & Gabbana
Seeing that Dolce & Gabbana have just about cemented themselves as the one and only authority on Italianate style, this season emphasised that theory with an overtly Euro and thankfully not so trashy displa...
MFW SS16: Versace
Credit it, perhaps, to the roaring success of Anthony Vaccarello’s rock n roll new Versus, but this season saw Donatella Versace drive her mainline in a decidedly more mature direction. SS16 is for the grown-up...
MFW SS16: Roberto Cavalli
Peter Dundas, Roberto Cavalli’s newly appointed creative director, has slipped into his new position seamlessly and in some ways going full circle in fact, after beginning his career at the attitude emblazoned ...
MFW SS16: Bottega Veneta
In a mood that moves more towards the antithesis of the relentless fashion cycle that we face each season, Bottega Veneta’s Tomas Maier has let loose this SS16 and yearned for freedom. Basing his latest collect...
MFW SS16: Emilio Pucci
This week at the Emilio Pucci SS16 ready to wear show, there was a moderate explosion of colour, coral and everything cut-out. It was a feast for the eyes with everything it had to offer. All with an exotic twi...
MFW SS16: Tod’s
Tod’s Creative Director Alessandra Facchinetti was inspired by 15 women from the creative fields for her SS16 collection, including illustrator and model Langley Fox Hemingway who closed the show, model and art...
