(DAY – 1)

From London we reallocate to  Milan, opening day of the much coveted  fashion week  saw a rich array of bold pastels like yellow, off-white, deep red, cobalt blue, cerulean, lavender and black. Authentic fabrics like super soft leather and warm cashmere were used to craft figure-defining garments that radiated subtle feminism in every way possible. With only Next Generation’s designer presentations, it was creativity at its best as they portrayed a vivid “sport-chic” persona through their uber-cool collections. Luca Lin’scollection comprised of slouchy overcoats, richly line with fox fur and shearling.

A-line skirts were paired with textured jackets and asymmetric tops. Winged-tip collars were used to define graphic print shirts, as leather duffle bags became the perfect accessory trend. Allesandro Canti portrayed “modern minimalism” through his simple and straight-fit garments.

Translucent blouses were crafted from fine silk and matched with floral-printed pants.

Claudio Cutugno majorly played with black as he sent modls down the runway nude crepe dresses and patent leather jackets. A lot of feather was intricately used on off-shoulder floor-length gowns and sexy strapless numbers.
