Milan Fashion Week SS10

Prada

Sheer and chic outfits, marvellous matte textures and luscious, ruby-red lips = Prada SS10. The ever prevalent short suit combination and one-piece body con added the finishing touches to a wonderful array of moody greys and elegantly embellished pieces. Soft ruffles and pouffes added a girly touch to the down-to-business collection.

Moschino Cheap and Chic

Playful colours and cute accents made up Rosella Jardini's young and fun Moschino Cheap and Chic collection. Channeling the 60s, there were bright colours, ruffled collars, floral patterns and super short hemlines. And how adorable are the ribboned two-tone shoes?

Moschino

Cheap and Chic's older sister Moschino paved the way for a heavier spring collection with sheer stockings and cherry prints, crystals and tassels, and plenty of gold accents. Keeping with the mini theme, skirts were both fitting and voluminous with cute frills and fluffy layers. A range of skirt suits was also on show from casual to corporate to cocktail.

Gucci

Frida Giannini displayed a futuristic collection of crisscross cut-outs, high-waisted stretch leggings, a modern take on the ikat print and holey jackets. Mesh lining and light jackets contributed to the sporty glam look while the crocodile skin jacket added a bit of edge.

Emporio Armani

Emporio Armani created a sexy yet sensible collection of work and play appropriate spring pieces. Suits were given a modern twist with structured shoulders and petal pleating as well as sparkles and suede. The second half of the collection saw took a turn towards the colourful with bright orange, coral and turquoise numbers in cutout swimsuits and beach dresses.

Emilio Pucci

Pucci's signature patterns paired with aquatic prints saw the debut of Peter Dundas' creative talent. Hitting the nail on the head, Dundas produced a lovely array of light billowing dresses and skin tight minis in a comforting palette of dusty pinks, lemon yellows and ocean blues. Plunging necklines and creative swimwear were also on show.
