Milan AW10 | Day Two






Falling for Luisa Beccaria's dove gray and shades of blue collection, she put her stamp on a new palette of elegant texture. Then lipstick red put an explanation mark at the end of her show in truly show stopping style. With winter wrapped up in these jackets and dresses, there will never be a dull moment.
Jil Sander, Jil Sander, Jil Sander. What can I say. Raf Simons took the basics back to basics and the checks were something new. The Spring Summer 10 collection was admittedly a hard one to follow, and anyone who can pull off the onesie is a force to be reconned with.
Giorgio Armani was all about the 80's for his Emporio Armani line, and no one did the 80's like Armani so hats off. He could pull it into this decade with aplomb, and voila, the decade many would like to forget is once again relevant.
The Versace show was full of leather clad, thigh high split wearing models who stormed the runway ready for business. There was nothing soft about this collection, and when thoughts turn to Versace, there shouldn't be any pre-conception of the garments other than packing powerful punches.
Blumarine approached the Autumn Winter season with all the subtlety of Versace. If you want tight animal print, you got it.
There's something about Milan, and it's fashion at its very entertaining best.
