Miuccia Prada

Louis Vuitton wrapped up the week with Nicolas Ghesquière’s Spring/Summer 2027 showcase on October 6, bringing together a seriously star-studded front row

The Oscar-winning British actor joined Emma Corrin, Gigi Hadid and Jamie Bell on the catwalk

Milan has never lacked for grand gestures, but what Prada has just unveiled inside the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II is something more unique and irresistible than a flagship

Prada has never wavered in her devotion to the skirt and has rarely been spotted wearing anything else but an A-line cut

The Prada spring/summer 2027 show was a celebration of the skirt, “a Prada obsession”

Armani has locked down the most sought-after free agent in the fashion industry

Amid economic uncertainty, geopolitical tensions and a sweltering Milan Fashion Week, designers largely stripped things back for next summer, embracing clean lines and pared-down looks

Dog poo, cigarette butts, body odour intermingling with Diptyque’s Tam Dao perfume and trench coats are usually guaranteed wins on the bingo card of Paris Fashion Week street style

Miu Miu is the younger Prada line and Anderson, who is 57, will have been picked to make the point that style has no age limit

Also appearing on the catwalk was actress Chloë Sevigny, who has long been associated with the brand’s offbeat aesthetic

Mark Zuckerberg showed up to Prada in Milan and held up the entire show

Then there are body brands, like Dior, which made the hourglass into its raison d’etre, or Dolce & Gabbana, with its unapologetic celebration of Italian flair

There was a good roster of celebrities present — in particular Ralph Lauren, which had Tom Hiddleston, Liam Hemsworth, Colman Domingo, Nick Jonas and Noah Schnapp in attendance

Meanwhile, Emporio Armani hosted a mini show in its boutique, showcasing its EA7 capsule collection inspired by the uniforms for Team Italia, for whom it is the official outfitter
