Fancy Gloves, Cheetah Print and Black, Edgy City Looks at Milan Fashion Week’s Elisabetta Franchi Spring/Summer 2027 Runway Show

So, it’s Milan Fashion Week and the runway has been full of fabulous styles for the upcoming Spring/Summer 2027. I was especially intrigued by Elisabetta Franchi’s show that included fancy gloves, edgy black city looks and cheetah print. Full length gloves are usually reserved for more formal wear but hey, who says you can’t wear them for a daytime look? I also spotted several styles with bandeau tops. It looks like crop top styling will definitely be a trend for next spring as New York Fashion Week’s Christian Siriano Spring/Summer 2027 show featured several formal crop top gowns. Sequins and see-through clothing are also still prominent trends that have been on the runway for many years now. Check out some more highlights from the show below and tell me what you think?

Le Normandie: Catherine Malandrino Fall 2013 Fashion Week Presentation

This past Sunday I helped at the Catherine Malandrino Fall 2013 Fashion Week Presentation downtown. Le Normandie was the name of the collection featuring great geometric shapes, beautiful silhouettes and lace overlays.  And, of course, the international fashion community was there to check it out.

The look on the models was very natural and simple, but the clothes were anything but that. I wore one of her Black Label leather skirts with lace cut outs along with leather boots for a biker look. Check out some of the looks and photos from the presentation below.catherine-malandrino01malandrinomodel4malandrinomodel2malandrinomodel

I’m totally on to this new bag from Proenza Schouler’s PS1 Collection. Take this graffiti covered bag to the streets with some leather pants, sneaker heels and one of those skull shirts and jewelry from Alexander McQueen. Check out some ideas to mix and match in my Funky Street Style collection here.
