Bally - Rhuigi Villaseñor makes us proud to be Filipino. With the Fil-Am at the helm of the brand as Creative Director, Bally is serving us California chic with all the suede swimsuits and plunging necklines you could ever dream of. Despite being the brand’s first foray into clothing, the runway is riddled with mastery and craftsmanship.Photo by Daniele Oberrauch via Gorunway.com
- The metallic ensembles of the runway glimmer in glamour, and we can’t deny that Villaseñor’s affinity for bold prints makes the catwalk all the more captivating. With ensembles dripping in gold, contrasted by animal prints on cowboy suit pieces, we’re more than glad for this era of Americana!Photo by Style Du Monde
Blumarine - We want to be a part of this world! The new Blumarine girl is reminiscent of the fairytale classic, 'The Little Mermaid'. Nicola Brognano, Blumarine’s creative director, sums up the collection best, describing it as “intriguing and sexier, less pop, much dirtier.“ Photo by Daniele Oberrauch via Gorunway.com
- The darker, more gothic incarnation of the mermaid makes us excited for spring! In denims and cargos, we’re enamored for this retelling of a folktale. The idea behind the poster girl for Blumarine being constantly changing to become her best evolved self is tantalizing and provocative at best. Photo by Sonny Vandevelde
Bottega Veneta - Bottega Veneta is the fashion house dedicated to dress you for any and all occasions. Matthieu Blazy makes a sensational showcase of high fashion society with his collection that explores the concept of ‘perverse banality.’ In painstakingly recreating the look of denim, flannel and cotton, a new appreciation for the brand and for leather are found.Photo by Filippo Fior via Gorunway.com
- Not one to cater to haute couture or the red carpet, the dynamic silhouettes of Bottega Veneta are a highlight, from exaggerated pant legs to storm flaps on trench coats. The groundedness of casual attire coming from a luxury brand offers a nice juxtaposition that we can’t wait to observe outside the halls of the showcase.Photo by Filippo Fior via Gorunway.com
Diesel - Glenn Martens’ sophomore show at Diesel is a masterclass in going back to the principles for which a fashion house is built upon. Dividing the collection into four chapters of denim, utility, “pop” and “extravaganza,” Martens reminds the world that this is the recipe for Diesel’s success, and boy are we eager for this savory concoction.Photo by Filippo Fior via Gorunway.com
- The overarching narrative of distress was tasteful, if not visionary, “All of the pieces are ‘imperfect’ through treatment and design.” The individuality of ‘brokenness’ and the irony of its everlasting life is what makes Diesel the brand that everyone flocks to when the need for a connection arises.Photo by Alessandro Oliva for Diesel
Dolce & Gabbana x Kim K - Well, if this isn’t a collaboration for the ages. In partnership with the premier fashion house, Kim Kardashian proves she’s more than just a reality star. In designing and curating the collection, we see quintessential Dolce & Gabbana from the 90s and 00s in blacks, metallics and leopard prints.Photo by Alessandro Lucioni via Gorunway.com
- In sending a message of women empowerment, down the runway, Kim recalls on her Instagram of how the brand emphasizes the feminine and the bold, the confident and the glamorous. Through a revamped archive of Dolce & Gabbana’s brightest, “Every piece is not just an item, it’s a unique memory.”Photo by Davide Gallizio
Etro - Marco de Vincenzo’s first stint as Etro’s creative director is a highlight of his mastery of imagination and potential. The wider range of possibilities to be explored is a path that de Vincenzo is more than willing to trek through. In an array of colorful beadwork and shimmer, we’re sure he’ll hike that mountain well.Photo by Daniele Oberrauch via Gorunway.com
- The subversive designs were paramount to the engaging nature of the collection—the iconography of paisley pattern and romantic sweeping gowns as Etro’s most recognizable motifs were nowhere to be seen. The romanticism of bold visuals and discontinuity was loud with the array of miniskirts, denim cargos, and brassieres.Photo by Etro
Fendi - In a stunning array of greens and browns with hints of silver, blue and pink, the collection is but a reminder of the natural order of the world and how it connects to Fendi’s stake in the fashion industry. The clothes-scape of neutrals are but the hallmark of the Fendi identity needed to jumpstart the brand’s recognition.Photo by Salvatore Dragone for Gorunway.com
- The double F-logo, the leather vests and the racerback tops are but a reference to the brand’s Lagerfeld samples from the late 90s. The turn-of-the-millenium athletic and collegiate influence in New York and London is brought to Milan with a newly evoked modernism. Cue in hardware-strapped combat pants, wedge boots and sporty rib knits.Photo by Brett Lloyd for Fendi
Ferragamo - The shift in aura from Ferragamo is palpable, first the cursive font to a bolder more contemporary design, next the arresting red tone as the house’s new signature color; most noticeable however is the dropping of “Salvatore” to become Ferragamo. But its renaissance still holds on to the roots of Ferragamo with Marilyn Monroe’s iconic red pump from the 1950s.Photo by Filippo Fior via Gorunway.com
- So who is now the ideal Ferragamo clientele? Perhaps those with an affinity for innovation. From new, strong silhouettes in neutrals, to bleeding-print and the rust-to-apricot heat-reactive fabrics, Creative Director Maximilian Davis has cemented his legacy with this sensational debut.Photo by Schohaja
Gucci - We’re in the mood for a little trouble by seeing double! Titled 'Gucci Twinsburg', 68 pairs of twins walked down the runway in double-take worthy attire. It’s a festival of opulence and sophistication from twill cardigans and slim-cut blazers, to snakeskin boots and ruffled magenta ensembles.Photo by Filippo Fior via Gorunway.com
- The runway set-up embraced the eventual unity of the population, and it’s a hard advocacy to miss. Viewers catch a glimpse of identical twins strutting on dichotomous sides of the runway only to hold hands at the final bow. The beaded headgear, chained jewelry and campy American Furby prints, become equally fulfilling side characters to the main storyline of Gucci Twinsburg.Photo via Gucci
Moschino - Jeremy Scott’s eight-year run at Moschino makes an even bigger splash at this year’s MFW runway. Campy commentary on inflation in a post-pandemic truth, inflatables become the highlight of Moschino’s runway—”with a nozzle, and everything.” Photo by Isidore Montag via Gorunway.com
- From smaller flourishes like a simple heart inflatable on a black dress, to full on summer beach-inspired couture, there’s no hiding Scott’s creative genius. “Sometimes we feel like we’re drowning. I’m sure you do, I know I do. But no matter what is going on, we have to save space for joy, right?” And Moschino distinctly does keep light feelings afloat.Photo by Marcus Mam for Moschino
