MILAN FASHION WEEK 2018

Fall/Winter Collection

Before jetting off to Paris, Milan Fashion Week is just about ending. So let’s wrap it up, ladies.

Gucci brings to surface the idea where we all “are the Dr. Frankenstein of our lives.” Baby dragon replicas, faces covered in half-sown balaclavas & more probe truths about fashion’s ability to express inner states. See babushka headscarves, 20s showgirl chainmail, English tweed, manga, love letters to Sega, etc.

..like Pierpaolo Piccioli, Simone Rocha, Craig Green and more to be rolled out one at a time on a monthly basis as a way to address the ever-shifting buying patterns of the consumers; a generation of shoppers going by “drops.”

Prada opts for troubling, sci-fi chic that seem to touch upon the idea of superseding (and questioning) the “validity” of clothes. Utilitarian layers of workwear and tulle, glowing fluorescents, digital prints and rubber boots – all build a disrupting picture of dissonances with a deliberate done-in-haste feel at Milan Fashion Week

Numero Ventuno though goes on a parade-like prance, whirling and twisting and turning in as many ways possible in their Fall/Winter 2018 collection.

Find tight knit matched with lace pants and stacked creepers, fugly gold-soled sneakers under mid-length skirts and opera gloves, and flashes of gold and crystal. Sparkly.

MARNI held a face-off between technology and nature at #MFW for #FW18, showing the “contrast between our irresistible love of innovation and technology” whilst (at the same time) looking for that meaning for the soul. Result? Polished, high-styled fashion where the reuse of fabrics is done in such a beautiful way.

Dolce Gabbana goes kila-crazed, showing pictures of an homage to the baroque Oratorio di Santa Cita church in Palermo, Sicily – where a kind of hell was set loose where sumptuous embroideries were transformed to cheap, profane slogans on sweatshirts and tees such as those befitting the aesthetics of a souvenir stall.
