Stepping out with next spring's collections
FROM tie-dyed gowns and floral prints to wicker dresses, there was something for fashionistas everywhere at Milan Fashion Week.
Gucci
"Sophisticated and essential" is how Gucci designer Frida Giannini described the elegant collection that kicked off Milan Fashion Week. Based on an elongated silhouette and decorative flounces, accessorized by high-heeled cage sandals, the collection comes in bold shades, including fuchsia and coral.
Armani
Giorgio Armani's show offered more glitter than a constellation, with a myriad of beautiful gowns and sparkling pants enhanced by a plisse silk bodice. Night was midnight blue, slate gray and some black. "This is a woman who doesn't put on airs, rather is young in age or mentality," Armani said.
Bottega Veneta
The Bottega Veneta show had a super ladylike look. A pretty silk shirt dress belted at the waist was made even more lovely by its delicate floral print, a single white blossom repeated on a golden brown background. The summer palette also includes black and white, powder pink, pale green and deep blue.
Dolce & Gabbana
From the summer play suits and unique wicker dresses to cart wheel earrings and wedged sandals with paintings on them, Dolce & Gabbana's show created an upbeat mood. Not that the collection took giant leaps forward, but it will probably be fun to wear - something designers often neglect.
Prada
The central motif of the new Prada collection, which takes inspiration from the kimono, is a graphic flower which appears on bags, tops, dresses, wraps and eyewear. In Milan, the kimono showed up as a wrap, a top tied in the back, a skirt formed out of panels or a tunic dress. Fabrics were silk and satin.
Versace
Donatella Versace's show combined neat tailoring with a lingerie edge in lace, leather and silk. The normally Baroque iconic Medusa made an appearance in tie-dyed prints, hinting at a hippie vibe - especially a blue gown that was split up the front and laced together enticingly over the bodice.
