Prada Spring 2025 Ready-To-Wear:
Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons, always right on time, are back at it again—this time throwing some major side-eye at the whole “algorithm” situation. And honestly, they couldn’t have picked a better moment. Just days after Meta finally decided to tweak Instagram’s settings for teen users (under a bit of pressure, mind you), Prada and Simons sent a message of their own about the algorithmic rabbit hole we’re all living in.
Moschino Spring 2025 Ready-To-Wear:
Adrian Appiolaza, now in his third season leading Moschino, is proving to be quite the fashion historian. He’s not just reviving Franco Moschino’s legacy for today’s crowd—he’s offering up a full-on crash course in the tastemakers and trends of decades gone by. His show felt like a tour through various fashion subcultures, each detail meticulously curated by someone who clearly has a deep love for the archives.
GCDS’ Spring 2025 Ready-To-Wear:
To the upbeat remix of *Everything is Romantic* by Charli XCX herself (yes, she made it *just* for the show), Giuliano Calza unveiled his Spring 2025 collection, “Flowers of the Concrete.” And where did this all go down? At the Italian stock exchange, right in front of the infamous “L.O.V.E.” sculpture by Maurizio Cattelan—the one with the giant middle finger.
Max Mara Spring 2025 Ready-To-Wear:
Max Mara’s Spring 2025 Ready-to-Wear collection, showcased at Milan Fashion Week, was a fusion of fashion and science, with creative director Ian Griffiths drawing inspiration from the Apple TV+ series *Lessons in Chemistry* and trailblazing women in science like Hypatia, the 4th-century philosopher and mathematician.
Roberto Cavalli Spring 2025 Ready-To-Wear:
Puglisi’s been steering the Cavalli ship for over three-and-a-half years now, and wow, has he put his stamp on it. It’s still one of the bolder, louder voices in Milan, sure—but it’s a lot more dialed back compared to the founder’s wild, in-your-face era. Puglisi has worked hard to find that sweet spot between Cavalli’s signature flash and everyday wearability. And yes, those seven jaw-dropping event dresses are going to make headlines (as they were clearly meant to).
Jil Sander Spring 2025 Ready-To-Wear:
Lucie and Luke Meier took Jil Sander down a darker, more intense path this season, a reflection, they said, of the world’s current state. It feels like we’re in an era where only the tough make it through—so seeing fashion embrace prettiness might seem a bit offbeat. Last season, the Meiers leaned into softness with their swaddled silhouettes and feminine touches, but this time, the mood shifted, adapting to the tougher reality outside our windows.
