Fashion is thriving, and I’m beyond thrilled. This year’s Milan runways showcased incredible diversity and creativity, reflecting the complexity of our times. I firmly believe that fashion is an art form, and it’s fascinating to see how it mirrors our era. The beauty of fashion lies in its subjectivity – there’s no one “right” way to style yourself. Individuals can curate their own unique looks, blending different styles, trends, and aesthetics.
It’s exhilarating to see young people and old alike embracing this philosophy, mixing designers’ garments with one-of-a-kind art pieces, and possibly even vintage finds to create their own personalized styles.
The collections this season have been particularly striking, with designers pushing boundaries and exploring new territories.
Dolce & Gabbana’s pyjama party-inspired show featured sheer black looks with bold crosses, while Bottega Veneta showcased bold shoulders and glistening fringe.
Ferragamo’s collection was a highlight for me, with Maximilian Davis’s creative direction bringing stunning archival prints, graphic energy, and color blocking to life, blended with 1920s glamour and modern style. I loved the antique yellow-toned satin dresses and sculptural heels.
Etro, on the other hand, was free, instinctive, and perpetually in motion, bringing a kaleidoscope of prints, shimmering details, and intricate embroidery to the runway. Their mix of bold, eclectic, and psychedelic elements added a unique twist to their collection.
What I find most exciting is the growing trend of eclecticism in fashion. Designers are no longer bound by traditional rules, and this freedom is resulting in some truly innovative and captivating collections.
As fashion continues to evolve, I’m eager to see what the future holds. One thing is certain – the next few seasons will be nothing short of extraordinary.
