June 15, 2018<\/span><\/p>\n The Milan season menswear may continue to shrink, yet the city seems set for a particularly busy weekend of fashion, though as much co-ed as masculine.<\/span><\/p>\n The four-day menswear season \u2013 known officially as Milano Moda Uomo \u2013 kicks off on June 15 with a whole series of women\u2019s collections.<\/span><\/p>\n In fact, the season\u2019s first professional show on Friday evening is a women\u2019s spring 2019 collection, Alberta Ferretti. Its location: Scalone Arengario, meaning inside the former royal palace in the city\u2019s main square \u2013 Piazza Duomo. And Milan Moda Uomo climaxes with a Monday evening event by Britain\u2019s Stella McCartney.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe interesting point is that the barrier between men and women has completely disappeared. Completely! We have this season three full collections \u2013 Alberta Ferretti, Stella McCartney and the Finnish brand Aalto \u2013 that are showing in Milan during men’s shows. Together with all the co-ed shows, from the new generation and classic brands showing men and women together. That\u2019s a major change,\u201d argues Carlo Capasa, president of the Camera della Moda, Italian fashion\u2019s governing body.<\/span><\/p>\n Notably brand as diverse as Daks, Dsquared2, Frankie Morello, Hunting World, Isabel Benenato, M1992, Marcelo Burlon County of Milan, Neil Barrett, Palm Angels, Sartorial Monk and Sunnei will all unveil co-ed shows.\u00a0 And, word has just reached us of the latest Dolce & Gabbana stealth show on Saturday night. Of late always a mixed show staged as a cocktail party catwalk fete inside their famed Corso Venezia palazzo.<\/span><\/p>\n Admittedly, right after Ferretti there is a major menswear show, Ermenegildo Zegna. This season the top line of the giant haute gamme men\u2019s brand will present its top collection in a legendary location.<\/span><\/p>\n Designer Alessandro Sartori is taking Zegna to Mondadori Segrate and the city\u2019s most famous, though least visited, important building of the 20th\u00a0century. A magnificent undulating office building designed by Oscar Niemeyer for publishing house Mondadori that opened in 1975.<\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe building looks like the fluttering pages of a book, and the models will march before this huge lake in an urban park. Let\u2019s pray for a great sunset,\u201d says Sartori, whose collections are frequently inspired by architecture.<\/span><\/p>\n Also on Friday, as part of this Camera\u2019s commitment to the young talent, the first runway menswear catwalk action will be a joint runway show called Milano Moda Graduate, featuring students from various Italian fashion schools. With the new government\u2019s fresh Culture Minister Alberto Bonisoli tipped to attend.<\/span><\/p>\n The season will also feature several Italian debuts like Besfxxk; a brand founded by two London fashion school graduates Dona Kim and Jae Lim that blends military functionality and classic tailoring. And also Vien, a local label by designer Vincenzo Palazzo, who was born in the Deep South \u2013 Taranto in Puglia, in the heel of the Italian peninsula.<\/span><\/p>\n Also\u00a0presenting\u00a0in Milan for the first time: Korean brand Spyder, French brand Ih Nom Uh Nit, along with Italian labels Doucal\u2019s and Triple RRR, a marque founded by Robert Cavalli, younger son of the legendary Roberto.<\/span><\/p>\n Other new developments include Diesel Red Tag, which debuted a women\u2019s capsule collection in March in Paris with a \u201ccommercial commemorative event\u201d designed by Shayne Oliver. This season, however, the Belgian designer Glenn Martens from the Y\/Project label is designing the second Diesel Red Tag collection. Martens, who scooped the 2017 ANDAM Grand Prize is very much a name to watch.<\/span><\/p>\n Concludes Capasa: \u201cSome brands do fashion shows, others do exhibitions and presentations. There is no a great difference between these two anymore. Which is why we have one full calendar, where we no longer make a difference between shows and presentations. We have nearly 70 stories going on over four days. So I think everyone will be pretty busy.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Courtesy of \u00a9 2018 FashionNetwork.com<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Milano Moda Uomo is more about the ladies than ever June 15, 2018 The Milan season menswear may continue to shrink, yet the city seems set for a particularly busy weekend of fashion, though as much co-ed as masculine.
