SUIT UP!
SUIT UP!
Designers embraced suits at Milan Fashion Week with everything from relaxed fits to more tailored styles. At Prada, designer Miuccia Prada featured cropped pants and suit jackets in bold pastel hues and wacky prints. Wearing suits has never looked so stylish!
Giorgio Armani’s timeless tailoring took the runway at Milan Fashion Week. His fall 2015 collection featured around 80 looks featuring pants including suits. Nipped at the waist with strong shoulders and pajama style trousers, Armani brought his own unique take on the trend.
Presenting his first collection for Gucci, newly instated creative director Alessandro Michele offered a whimsical vision for spring. With relaxed fit suiting, Michele borrowed from the boys for the fall 2015 runway show.
At Missoni, designer Angela Missoni went for retro styling and bold color combinations on the runway. The Italian brand presented suit looks with relaxed jackets and pajama style pants that looked quite comfortable.
Pussybow Shirts
Pussybow Shirts
The 1970s trend seemed to cross the Atlantic from New York City to Milan. But Italian designers brought their own unique twist on the throwback trend with long-sleeve, ruffled shirts featuring long and droopy pussybow details that are commonly associated with the era. Roberto Cavalli was in his wheelhouse with a bohemian, Shanghai inspired hybrid for fall 2015.
Gucci creative director Alessandro Michele made looks that seemed to channel a Wes Anderson heroine with kitschy styling and retro color combinations. Michele embraced pussy bow shirts underneath sweater vests for the autumn.
At his rumored final collection for Emilio Pucci, Peter Dundas created a rock and roll infused outing of sexy looks with celestial inspiration. Models channeled Stevie Nicks in updated pussybow shirts and capes.
DSquared2 looked to British aristocracy and Native American style for a style mash-up. Military inspired jackets paired with tribal accessories and formal shirts made quite a statement for fall.
RED ALERT
RED ALERT
Many designers at Milan Fashion Week embraced the color red on the catwalk. At Alberta Ferretti, the designer was inspired by the Italian Renaissance with a fairytale palette that include quite a bit of the scarlet hue. Colored furs and embellished bodices in red were a bold choice.
At Fendi, Karl Lagerfeld and Silvia Venturi Fendi created a collection inspired by the geometric art movement of the 20th century. The result was a fall outing of clean lines and bold colors like red for a stark contrast.
Mothers influenced the fall-winter 2015 collection from Dolce & Gabbana where maternal style was in. The designers offered their trademark Sicilian flare with a color palette featuring plenty of red shades.
Donatella Versace wanted to present a collection that would truly pop on internet outlets, and we think she succeeded with bold color choices including red.
STATEMENT BELTS
STATEMENT BELTS
Accessories are often a key point to creating the perfect “wow” look on the runway, and at Milan Fashion Week, many designers opted to include statement belts to accentuate their creations. Moschino´s Jeremy Scott was inspired by 1990s hip-hop style for fall, and embraced the fashions with bold belts.
At Roberto Cavalli, the designer’s rock and roll aesthetic was fully embraced for fall. Pairing statement belts with some bling and fur looks, the styling choice really brought some sex appeal to looks.
Accentuating the waist with large and ornate belts, Versace’s Donatella Versace combined powerful and feminine style for fall 2015 with bold colors and out of the box patterns.
Never one to shy away from colors and textures, Marni’s Consuelo Castiglioni presented a collection full of volume and new proportions for fall. This included wide leather belts as a statement accessory.
