Take a Look at the Highlights from Milan Fashion Week 2024
Milan Fashion Week, a globally anticipated fashion event, took place from February 20th to February 26th, 2024, showcasing an array of innovative designs that captivated the world. Join us as we revisit the highlights of the runway and draw inspiration from the latest trends.
The GUCCI 2024 Autumn/Winter womenswear collection kicked off with a minimalist approach, yet it featured a number of ingenious designs, including the use of sequins. Bold color combinations infused the collection with a lively spirit, breaking away from the monotony of black and white. Creative Director Sabato De Sarno sought to "embrace a disruptive stance, observing things beyond the ordinary and freeing oneself from the constraints of rules." In line with this creative philosophy, the collection aimed to "capture extraordinary highlights within the ordinary," adding creative flair to practicality and subtly subverting the rules of ready-to-wear fashion with a palette that evokes curious, whimsical, and absurd alchemy of colors.
PRADA
The fascination with history is instinctive. The Prada 2024 Autumn/Winter collection, a collaborative effort between Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons, blends avant-garde fashion with historical fragments, exploring the concept of beauty and sketching a contemporary world built from memories. A romantic journey into the past is thus initiated.
FENDI
Luxurious yet practical, simple yet marvelous, salon and street, urban and rural. In this collection, Kim Jones delves into a relaxed and carefree approach to dressing, filled with London's nonchalance and Rome's liberty. Practicality becomes the clear design tenet. Luxury is reflected in the immense comfort and strong confidence that the garments provide, effectively promoting self-expression. Both functional and playful, the entire collection exudes a duality that is distinctly FENDI.
Bottega Veneta
The Bottega Veneta 2024 Winter collection is remarkable every day: amidst the theme of practicality, functionality, and purpose, it also harbors charm and self-assurance. In a world dominated by the night, the imagination of daywear returns to streamlined silhouettes, crisp and clear like statues in the dark. In a world ablaze with passion, the act of "dressing" itself contains a certain power about humanity.
FERRAGAMO
In the FERRAGAMO 2024 Autumn/Winter collection, Creative Director Maximilian Davis explores the 1920s through his unique perspective, crafting a carefree attitude that embodies self-expression. Three-dimensional pleats meet fluid fabrics, and draped waistlines encounter loose cuts, simplifying and refining the visual characteristics of an era, reflecting self-expression across two different decades of the 20s.
Dolce&Gabbana
This season, Dolce&Gabbana takes us on a journey showcasing exceptional craftsmanship and a relentless pursuit of exquisite details. Designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana blend archival styles with contemporary aesthetics, revitalizing classic tailoring elements. With the brand's signature Sicilian black as the main palette, they transform silhouettes while preserving the essence of the brand, crafting an eternal elegance.
ERMANNO SCERVINO
The ERMANNO SCERVINO 2024 Autumn/Winter collection features suit jackets with a tight waist and easy-to-wear designs, a fusion of sensuality and practicality. Traditional men's fabrics are reinterpreted, with fine stripes and herringbone patterns contrasting sharply with jackets embellished with crystals and mixed-suit jackets. Corsets run through the brand's signature sensuality and romance, showcasing strength by accentuating the female silhouette.
TOD'S
Creative Director Matteo Tamburini's debut for TOD'S IN MOTION marks a new chapter for TOD'S, infusing the brand's essence of Italian lifestyle and exceptional quality with his abundant inspiration. This collection is rooted in the core charm of Italian style: an elegant naturalness that defies time, building taste in relaxation, and demonstrating excellence in quality. It carries an unwavering pursuit of exquisite craftsmanship and the artisan's spirit, deconstructing the contemporary meaning of luxury.
VERSACE
The VERSACE 2024 Autumn/Winter collection embodies a quiet rebellious spirit, and a thoughtful wild charm. The tailoring is ingeniously subverted by draping designs; print patterns are deconstructed and used in embroidery, jacquard, and hidden beneath linings; while Atelier Versace fabrics are reimagined into a new luxury tweed, showcasing creative aesthetics.
SPORTMAX
The story of SPORTMAX's 2024 Autumn/Winter collection begins with the gaze of German rock singer Nico, immersed in the mysterious atmosphere of her renowned album "Camera Obscura." This season, the silhouette of the body is accentuated, with tight dresses and suit jackets drawing from the aesthetic of corsetry, featuring intricate geometric cuts, padding, and pleating techniques. The color palette is harmoniously coordinated, skillfully utilizing high-tech fabrics and tailored techniques, patent finishes, and PVC decorative details, looking to the past while embracing the future.
