Milan men’s fashion week gets off to a rocking start

Milan’s men’s fashion week began with the much anticipated Jil Sander show, the minimal luxury label with Raf Simons currently at its design helm. With Milan stores quickly swapping their spring summer 06 merchandise for the new winter season, the Jil Sander store housed its first collection from the Belgian designer where loyal followers were eager to see the clothes in the flesh. The mood for next season was anything but sobersober, but not without a fashionable twist.

Missoni showed a collection of dandy-esque fashion with a youthful edge. The house, who’s technical know-how supercedes most knitwear brands on the market,, continues to produce the most exquisite knits available. Soft tailoring, pleated shorts, summer hats, eveningwear inspired by its iconic zigzag, were nothing compared the richness of its knits, shown in soft aquatic colours, and contrast hues. Burberry Prorsum (photograph) showed a refined and tailored collection but mood of easy glamour and as Christopher Bailey said: “effortless attitude of jeans and a T-shirt reflecting the Burberry look of disheveled elegance.”

The show kicked off with a veritable display of the finest and freshest sartorial elegance seen so far, according to Vogue.com. The trench was omni-present as ever, but with sleeves rolled up and belted with a fine tan belt, it looked fresh and new. Teamed with taupe, mushroom, stone and vanilla-hued suiting, the finest cotton voile shirting, lightweight alpaca or cashmere cable knits and two-tone tie die silk knitted scarves, the look was impeccable.
