TRENDS: MILAN FASHION WEEK DONNA SPRING / SUMMER 2015...

MILANO… Mmmm… The land of the ready-to-wear, perfect tailoring, excellence in detailing and craftsmanship. I adore this place, not only because it brings back to me great feelings and memories of my days as a fashion student; but because it is still for so many of us and will always be a paradise of good taste and fantastic fashion…

The SPRING / SUMMER 2015 collections shown in this wonderful city made our heart beats, for sure… Many TRENDS seen in New York and London were again present with even more power; such as beautiful FLOWERS, BIRDS & PLANTS; as well as MEN-INSPIRED, SPORTY, MILITARY and POP ART vibes.

Here some more exquisite TRENDS…

GORGEOUS FRINGES

Casual, edgy or very elegant FRINGES added a touch of fabulous panache to many catwalks. Definitely, it becomes quite difficult not to fall for them… Gorgeous! (Images: Giorgio Armani, Dolce & Gabbana, Marco De Vicenzo & Emilio Pucci)

MAGIC YELLOW

Lovely YELLOW highlighted the magic involved in numerous collections! This lucky color was shown in total looks, or as a main character in wonderful ensembles. Marvelous! (Images: Marni, Philipp Plein, Tod's & Versace)

OVERSIZE ELEGANCE

ELEGANCE was presented in lovely edgy ways through OVERSIZE pieces, mostly tops. They looked spectacular as they were simultaneously charged with charming and sexy masculinity… Uffff… Divine! (Images: Jil Sander, Salvatore Ferragamo, Piazza Sempione & MSGM)

FULL GEOMETRY

Artistic geometry reflected in prints, cuts or both; became protagonists in so many of the Milano Donna collections… Certainly, we feel grateful for it! Oh yes! (Images: Versace, Byblos, Sportmax & Iceberg)

ETHNIC FANTASIES

Boho airs were all over, perfectly presented in ethnic-inspired prints, graphics, motifs and silhouettes. Especially popular were flowy skirts, robes and dresses. So easy to wear; and so lovely! (Images: Roberto Cavalli, Etro, Missoni & Marni)

LIGHT SOPHISTICATION

Delicate cuts, forms and silhouettes in light and very soft colors; such as white, off-white, cream, caramel, camel and beige ; were the perfect proof that SOPHISTICATION is a ‘must’ in our lives and in the fashion world… So let us live it intensely!

LIFE IS A RUNWAY!
