Milan Fashion Week: Friday 23rd September






Versace was very beautiful. It was another collection this season that decided to work primarily with white and the entire collection was very glamorous. Even by some simple studded detailing in patterned forms, the garments came alive. They were also very simple and wearable pieces that didn't go too over the top. 




Described as being inspired by the Jazz age, Etro reminds me of European art. I've had to study tiling patterns and what not at uni and I can see the influence in these designs. But it is a clever influence and not an obvious one. The shapes of the garments are equally as intricate as the patterns being formed with geommetric shape ideas. 




Gabriele Colangelo should be congratulated for her work with silks in this collection. Theres some really beautiful prints shes created and I love the layering up of dresses into soft tiers.
