Let’s find our next list of style-inspirations in Milan;
the city where many of us chose and will always choose to learn about the tradition,
craftsmanship, art and supreme quality behind fashion. In this city, the Italian
fashion houses get together to remind us where the roots of the prêt-à-porter began
to grow. So, may I invite you to delight yourself with some of the loveliest trends seen in the Fall/Winter 2017 collections?
Enjoy…
LANDSCAPES
There were fabulous dresses, tops and coats showing wonderful
landscapes through exquisite prints and patterns. Some looks were charged with
feminine modernity, while others with pure idyllic airs. Spectacular! (Alberta Ferretti, No. 21, MSGM)
GENTLEMEN SUITS
Impeccable suits, magnificently tailored; with a
perfect mix of masculinity and femininity, exuded beautiful power; that kind of
power that women of today own from the inside out. In classic or vibrant hues, monochromatic
or with loud prints, they really made their point and the public adored them! (Kiton, Mila Schon, Dolce & Gabbana)
MONOCHROMATIC LAYERING
Lovely pieces in one color head-to-toe, spectacularly
played through strategic layering; resulted in beautiful and harmonious looks full
of modernity and great class. (Max Mara, Erika Cavallini, Tod's)
WIDE BELTS
Big, wide belts cinching extraordinary dresses,
shirts, sweaters, jackets and coats were all over the runways; embracing women’s
silhouette to their upmost perfection. (FAY, Etro, Gucci)
ANINAL PRINTS MIXED & MATCHED
There was a fantastic game of mixing & matching
animal prints; mostly leopard and cheetah; with all kinds of other prints and
patterns, from romantic floral to geometric ones. They all resulted in superb
ensembles that we, fashion adorers, cannot avoid falling for. (Marco de Vicenzo, Angelo Marani, Blugirl)
WHIMSICAL DETAILS
Whimsical designs and motifs; such as big hearts,
planets, spacecraft, astronauts, animals, bows, architectural elements, warning signs… Decorated
dresses, tops, bottoms, suits and coats; injecting fantastic edge and fantasy. (Fausto Puglisi, Iceberg, Dolce & Gabbana)
PLISSÉ SKIRTS
Plenty of lovely ladylike plissé skirts paired with
knitted tops, blouses, blazers, sexy tops and/or coats; had their big impact on
plenty of the collections seen during these days. From elegant and tamed
ensembles to edgy ones, these plissé skirts looked gorgeous! (Gucci, Anteprima, MSGM)
Next stop, our beloved City of Lights! Mmmmmm…
LIFE IS A RUNWAY!
