Milan Fashion Week Favorites So Far
Prada is trying to get in your pants, specifically your wallet. But will models traipsing down the runway in semi-sheer crinkled suits that looked like they'd picked them off the floor after a one-night stand tempt you? The tops were frequently jackets attached to bras without blouses. I like the crumpled silk, but I can't see the bra jackets working off the runway. Maybe if the Pussycat Dolls try to class up their look with less pvc.
Missoni's palette was a lesson on how to wear bright clothes for autumn. They are just one of several Spring Summer 2009 shows who are forgoing seasonal color and design as seasons and trends phase out of fashion. For me, the highlight of the show was the short printed swing coats.
On the other end of the color spectrum, Moschino Cheap & Cheap went all out with candy colored floral prints, pastel water colors, and butterfly prints. This is the sort of collection that is far more versitile than its runway looks. Any one piece could really add fun and vitality to a snore of a wardrobe. Those shiny rolled shorts look uber comfy, and the dresses are sugary sweet.
