Milan Fashion Week, easily the loudest of the weeks, has come to a close. From the gaudy yet gracious looks of Dolce & Gabbana to the satirical and stylish garments from Moschino, Milan reminds us why it is a powerhouse of fashion. Let’s take a look at the top looks from MFW, and dream of how we’ll be incorporating them into our closets in the coming months.
Crochet
Crochet was woven into Milan Fashion Week for Spring 2019. Alberta Ferretti’s full-length crochet dress seems ideal as a beach coverup, while Dondup’s dress holds it’s own. Dolce & Gabbana and Etro featured thicker crochet garments and Blumarine ‘s loose top is layered beautifully over snake print biker shorts.
