The collections for men’s fashion in Milan Fashion Week
After Florence, here are the new proposals of men’s fashion for Milan Fashion Week 2017 , more specifically for next autumn / winter 2017 – 2018. The Milanese city holds up its flag as the capital of Italian fashion with a fashion week made of changes and second thoughts: 72 events scheduled, which ended on January 17th, in which the watchword was renewal.
Philipp Plein launches Plein Sport : a luxury line alternative to the big brands in the sector. A collection in which black is the protagonist, combined with white and red details. A riot of down jackets, bombers and sleeveless jackets with fur hoods.
Moncler: plays with the combination of blue and red for a snow and mountain look. La di lui is in fact a collection inspired by mountaineering, where the models walk united by rope and carabiners, which also act as decorative elements on the line’s jackets and fabrics.
Dirk Bikkembergs: with a new creative director. He is inspired by the military world, the use of a few colors, biker trousers and coats with evident pockets.
Marni: starts from scratch with Francesco Risso’s debut as creative director. In his collection there is great research for materials. The shapes are reminiscent of pajamas, with large trousers and loose knitwear.
Missoni: Sport & Luxury collection with which Angela Missoni celebrates her 2nd anniversary as creative director. Inspiration from concrete barriers and metal fences: big mongomers, soft pants and cardigans.
Daks: on this catwalk the protagonist is an ambitious boy who dreams of becoming a great manager and who wears gray and blue suits and leaves his baseball cap on his head.
N.21: “Even with fashion it is possible to change the things that are not right”, the words of the creative director Alessandro Dell’Acqua, who for his collection was inspired by the sense of freedom of the years of protest. Gold bomber jacket paired with a wrinkled shirt, Norwegian-style sweaters and wool coats and trousers.
MSGM: looks suitable for a young, light-hearted and irreverent man, so much so that he ends up mimicking Queen Elizabeth. An exuberant man but able to choose a mongomeri or a tailored trench coat, hoods or fleece shawls.
Billionaire: debut on the catwalk for this brand founded by Flavio Briatore and a few months ago with a new majority shareholder and creative director: the German designer Philipp Plein.
A yellow helicopter dominates the catwalk that sees very elegant gentlemen parading in tailored suits and precious fur coats.
Fashion Man and Woman together
They climb the record to reach the heights of the trend and there are many brands that show the men’s and women’s collections together.
Dsquared2: here too you can climb mountains wearing glamorous clothes. “ A he and a her fleeing to Canadian peaks “: this is the idea of the Caten brothers, creative directors of the brand: denim jackets, coats with fringes, ski boots. A glam touch and a sequined black k-way for him.
Moschino: interpretation of the military style, presented for the first time in Milan by the new creative director Scott. In addition to the men’s collection, the Moschino Women’s pre-collection winter collection is also on show. He plays with embroidery and some exaggeration.
Frankie Morello: great return to Milan after several seasons of absence. He too presents a double man / woman collection made of graphics depicting space and stellar themes. For him, the jacket has the sleeves in biker-style leathers, while the studs can be found on the biker-style trousers.
Young talents
In the Milanese fashion theater, alongside the big names, the collections of the “new generations” also parade. Especially the three emerging young people chosen by Giorgio Armani, all of oriental origin: the Japanese Yoshio Kubo of 41, the Chinese Wang Fang of 27 and the Malaysian Moto Guo of 26.
Not a race, but the official baptism in the fashion market. The young designers, as reported by Giorgio Armani, present their works letting the clothes do the talking, without making use of particular arrangements. Hoping that this choice is a good omen, as it was for him in the Sala Bianca of Palazzo Pitti in 1974.
Yoshio Kubo : gives life to a collection that mixes the rock look with the samurai one. Graduated from Philadelphia, he has a vision all of him, made of infinite overlaps that generate volume. A great use of zips in all of his garments.
Moto Guo: focuses on a “funny” look, made up of: lots of shorts, candy colors, grandma’s shawls and caps with a propeller. Crochet bouquets of flowers tucked into Sandokan’s trouser belts.
Wang Fang: lives in London which has greatly influenced her in her collection. Her collection is a “perfect imperfection” of formal dresses with basting in sight. There is a lot of assembling of different garments: a little trench coat and a little coat, half shirt and half pinstripe, a cross between a down jacket and a jacket… resulting in a game you like!
Street Style
As per tradition, during these events, outside the Armani Theater, people show off the most extravagant and fashionable looks. Lots of color and inspiration from period characters.
On the street there are many young people photographed who should set a trend with their looks but who often end up just making people talk.
Waiting for .. the women’s fashion collections fall / winter 2017-2018
There have been many brands that have also shown women together with the men’s collection, but from 22 to 28 February for the Milan Fashion Week 2017, and the spotlight of the fashion system will be on them, and also on this occasion the fashion show will ‘man.
An evolution is expected, so strong, in which one no longer looks at whether a fabric is for men or women and there are continuous comparisons of similarity.
Well, with these premises, we’ll see what the Milanese catwalks will offer us in February …
