Alberta Ferretti: Ferretti does feel like a truly women-centric brand but without using feminism as a strategy. The collection was practical and comfortable yet drenched in elegance and glamour; items that elevate your wardrobe. Textures like suede, leather, fur, denim are laid out within a fantastic color palette. Ferretti’s gradual transition into dynamic daywear is commendable and after Fall 2020, this was just the perfect depiction of that.

Max Mara: Classic Max Mara colors, timeless silhouettes, a fresh approach, and references to Queen Elizabeth II this 70th anniversary was sure something. Oversized sweaters, quilted jackets, utilitarian outerwear, plaid skirt suits were some highlights in this blend of Italian and British heritage inspired show. A deep emerald green velvet quilted coat was the star of this collection.

Prada: Highlight in this collection was definitely the textures; faux fur coats and shawls, sequined coats, teddy bear coats, and whatnot. A lot of dizzy-random prints were seen throughout the collection. The pocketed colorful gloves, big Cleos, chunky sock boots, blanket bags prove that accessories were a hit here. Ugly onesies were so Prada, so Necessary.

Moschino: Moschino was as Moschino as one could imagine. Inspired by old Hollywood this collection had a look for everything business, travel, museums, safaris, Disney-themed ball, or you just want to dress up like a painting. One of the most fantasy-filled unreal presentations this fashion week; How does Jeremy Scott do it?.

Marni: A subdued fantastical glamour peeked through the coziness and comfort in this collection. Puffer capes and coats, velvet gloves, huge bags laid out within luxurious fabrics, and strong silhouettes. The use of color and draping to create corset-like structures was an example of the brilliant usage of color to manifest dreamy dramatic silhouettes. Romantic and dramatic Marni and we adore it.

Fendi: Whereas it was a step up from the disaster of a Couture collection, it was tragic at best. Comprised of a classic Fendi color palette (mainly browns, blacks, and whites) and some overstyled and outdated looks. There were a few nice individual pieces and some decent tailoring moments but I ended up being too engrossed with the set design, again.

Blumarine: “My Blumarine is more dirty, bitchy, sexier,” saidNicola Brognano and isn’t that all we need. Glitzy glamours and wild 2000s is an iconic era and was channeled in this collection. Ruffled chiffon dresses, butterfly motifs, nonexistent mini skirts, embellishments, low waist jeans, and fur-lined everything were some elements in this ultra nostalgic and glamorous collection.

Etro: Etro was a little bit messy, a little bit toned down, and somehow a little bit more glam, and I’m kinda confused. Comfortable clothes with a visibly commercial motive is something practical in the pandemic but the styling here was simply atrocious. Patchwork, velvets, paisley, fringe, funky knits, bomber jackets were among many strong elements in this collection; overall it was quite nice but unmemorable.

Salvatore Ferragamo: A futuristic sci-fi setup was new for Ferragamo and it was promising. A dreamy color palette with fantastic textures and fabrics and even more fantastic casual-sporty silhouettes. The standout look was an immaculately tailored and structured leather minidress. The final look was Sora Choi in silver body paint and a barely-there chainmail dress. The delicate knits, artful leather, and breezy tailoring kept the collection grounded to its roots.

Emilio Pucci: Not that this was a bad collection but I do want Pucci to be more dramatic and out there. Classic Pucci printed bodysuits were quite lovely and they often peeked through under pristine white pieces. The printed bomber jackets were sort of perfect. A sporty, fresh, and youthful approach yet rooted deeply in the brand’s heritage. A yellow feather-lined organza top and sheer blue organza skirt worn over saturated maroon tights was a look to remember.

MSGM: The collection did have some really nice pieces but it did feel a bit directionless. The very youthful collection did feature some nice desirable pieces; There was a bright lilac fur(faux?) coat that was quite nice and a red trippy latex off-shoulder dress. The collection inspired by club culture is only limited to clubbing.

Valentino: This was one of Pierpaolo’s better RTW collections. Mostly black and white the collection highlights were neatly tailored blazers, chunky knits, minidresses, and sheer-ish gowns. With a corporate chic meets schoolgirl aesthetic, there were some desirable pieces.
