Milan Fashion Week: Day 3

From February 20 to 26, the FW 2013 Milan Fashion Week is held. Look At Me traditionally tells about the most remarkable autumn-winter shows and collects comments from industry professionals about them.

On the third day of the Week, Italian houses with a rich history - Etro, Moschino and Versace - showed their collections.

Material prepared: Inna Provorova and Liza Kologreeva

Gabriele Kolangelo - Italian designer, who worked at Versace and who heads Genny

Gradient coloring is one of the designer's favorite tricks. This time, he achieved this effect by combining materials with different textures - wool, nylon and chiffon.

The show used bags of the Italian brand with a century-long history of Borbonese and shoes of the young British brand Bionda Castana

We observed the most intelligent use of floor length at the show of Gabriele Kolangelo, one of the rising stars of Milan fashion, who understands that modern fashion is as much about textures and fabrics as about cut and hem length

Gabriele Kolangelo seems to have decided that women will want to wear a rigid nylon mesh, despite the existence of evidence to the contrary. We did not buy it last season, when the sleeves of its fur coats were sewn from it, and we will not buy it this time when the material is used in a viable form - for sewing trousers

Grimes played on the show

The invitation to the show served as a card with a paisley pattern.

This time Etro combined a paisley print with rocker stuff.

Everything that was characterized by femininity, for example, a purple dress with a paisley pattern on the floor, was complemented by coarse leather jackets.

This collection is not so much about beauty, but about the fact that a woman can be strong and dressed to protect herself.

The silhouettes were simple, but not the overall impression of the collection, given the combination of jacquard, leather, complex prints, stilettos and sequins

The soundtrack was the song A Forest by The Cure

2

Iceberg recreated sweaters created for the brand by Jean-Charles de Castelbajac in 1983

Now the creative director of the brand is Paolo Gerani.

Accessories - necklaces, gloves, belts - gave this journey around the world of memories a more modern look.

Paolo Jerani returned Iceberg in the heyday of the brand in the 1980s

Models took to the podium not only one by one, but also in pairs

2

The soundtrack for the show were the songs of The Verve, Oasis and Blur

3

The show closed the young Russian model Nastya Kusakina

A couple of girls in punk-style clothes were on the podium - they ran away from a recent show of Moschino Cheap and Chic line

I like everything British, and it has been so since the beginning of my career. I always come back to this topic.

Moschino are back in the 1990s with a brit pop collection.

Sportmax - one of the brands of the Italian house Max Mara

2

The main thing in the collection was outerwear: fur coats, suede and astrakhan coats and jackets made of hard and well-shaped materials.

3

Sportmax is designed by a full-time team of the brand, the brand has no creative director with a big name

The diamond-like appliqué on tulle dresses looked too decorative, but otherwise the show was very direct.

Sportmax showed one of the main trends of the season - a skirt with pleated car-wash. These can be a real hit.

The modern industrial space, Sportmax showcase, reflects the spirit of the collection.

1

Donatella Versace called the collection "Wank"

2

Prints for collection were created by the American team of artists Hass Brother

Soon, a subsidiary of Donatella Versace Versus will present a collection created in collaboration with Jonathan Anderson

Rethinking! Uncompromising! Gianni was the master of all this. And Donatella learned.

What does a punk woman stand against? She does not want to be regarded below the man, she is better than him

The show was filled with energy, and certain things, such as a red wool coat with metal buttons, showed excellent tailoring skills of the brand.
