While I have been uploading my backlog of images from London Fashion Week, Milan has been in full swing and brights are coming through after seeing a relatively neutral palette, mainly white at the New York shows, and more of the same at London (with the exception of Kane, Mark Fast etc). It is Spring/Summer after all!
This Etro number stood out for its brightness and simplicity. I think the bright colour blocking works through simple silhouette here.
Maybe this should have been an orange trend forecast!! Love the navy blue paint splatters against the more electric blue of the dress and the orange.
Prada's collection has been a definite stand out so far. It was bold and had a fun spirit to it, with its monkey cartoons and banana prints, mixed in with seventeenth century cherubs. Some elements were slightly overdesigned for my liking and weren't to my particular taste, but there were other looks that I loved.
The banana and monkey print felt refreshing and new, while still feeling brand appropriate.
Maybe I should be writing as fruit as the next trend?? Love the banana clutch and watermelon headpiece. It seems random, but why shouldn't fashion be fun? It may only be the thrid day of Milan, and there may have been a lot of white shown already this season, but I am hoping to see more interesting bright colour combos...and more fruit!!
Seeing these fruit references made me think about when I found this knitted maxi dress in a designer discount store when in New York by Stella McCartney. Loving the intarsia pineapple.
