The supreme Italian savior-faire was, as usual, seen and especially ‘felt’ in the ready-to-wear fall/winter 2021 collections. Milano’s fashion fascinates me.... deeply! The omnipresente natural elegance and style; as well as touches of curated eccentricity here and there l, were very much present to nourish and inspire us!
There were dark hues and plenty of black, yes; but on the other hand, explosions of colors made a clear statement: The global wish is to feel excited, joyful, alive, unstoppable and ultra-stylish no matter what!
Breathtaking tailoring, exceptional craftsmanship, spectacular fabrics and materials, on-point silhouettes, wonderful details, and so much panache. Simply fantastic!
Here some delightful trends....

Comfortable, though stylish and even sexy knitted sets; some with lovely extra layers; in solid colors or prints. (Fendi)

90’s EXCESS
Funky, fun and loud 90’s airs reflected on colorful and/or metallics ensembles; many with plenty of layering, and highly accessorized and adorned. (Dolce & Gabbana)
