Over the past few weeks, Sabato De Sarno’s inaugural Gucci collection has begun its journey to stores and beyond. During a recent meeting at the brand’s headquarters, he observed a woman at an art gallery wearing the lime green coat adorned with crystal fringes from the previous season—a statement piece priced at a staggering 27,000 euros.
Giorgio Armani, with a nonchalant shrug, declared, “I am me. The others are the others,” following his morning show. When conceptualizing my collections, I focus on the women I encounter everywhere, devoid of intellectual or sexual provocation.
In his fall 2024 collection, designer Giuliano Calza presented a more introspective take on pop-infused fashion. Contrary to what the title might imply, there were no sexual undertones; instead, Calza delved into childhood memories and experiences.
Throughout his three-year tenure at Fendi, Kim Jones has remained steadfastly devoted to a singular muse: Delfina Delettrez Fendi, scion of the house. Prior to this afternoon’s show, Jones enthusiastically reaffirmed this stance, declaring, ‘I will always say that. Because she is just so chic and because of the way she dresses. And when you put it all together, it’s about the idea of function in life.’
The dimly lit venue of Etro’s show revealed imposing effigies—masks inspired by Greek tragedies. Aptly named “Act,” the collection hinted at a potential career pivot for Marco De Vincenzo, Etro’s creative director. With a playful jest, he confessed to feeling torn between authorship and interpretation, a constant struggle that both weighed on him emotionally and fueled his creativity. The masks, symbolic of this inner turmoil, took center stage.
This title encapsulates the essence of the show, where identical twins transform into '70s-inspired icons, blurring the boundaries between high and low fashion, grunge and glam. Get ready to hit play on your own personal runway, as Dean and Dan Caten take you on a sartorial journey that celebrates individuality and rebellion against the mundane.

After his globetrotting escapades last season, Matthieu Blazy of Bottega Veneta found himself backstage, contemplating the everyday. He mused, ‘In the world we inhabit, what meaningful impact can our creations have?’
