There are very clear street style DNAs for the Big Four fashion cities during fashion month. New York is polished, London is eclectic, Paris is chic. But Milan? Without a doubt, the Italian fashion capital is the most fabulous of the four. There's no print, fabric, colour or detail that goes unworn. Clashing prints are mandatory and bold and showstopping colours are ideal. Throw in a few feathers and a smattering of sequins and you've nailed the Milan street style look.
This season is no exception and guests attending the shows have not disappointed with the array of beautiful and fabulous ensembles. The highlights so far have been a bold pink (a trend we also saw in New York) worn in various different outfit styles. Then there's the colourful take on the co-ord that injects fun into suiting.
But even Milan can throw a curveball sometimes, as this season we've spotted more pared-back trends than usual. The most surprising was the head-to-toe neutrals look. Foregoing the usual bright hues, there were plenty of street stylers who opted for this full-white and off-white outfit.
Pockets were an important detail too, which is much more utilitarian than we're used to seeing on the streets of Milan, but that doesn't make them any less pleasing (after all, who doesn't love a pocket?). And if you're worried that the city is about to go full new minimalism, fear not, as there's enough to keep the most die-hard maximalist happy.
