In an effort to promote sex positivity and celebrate women power, Diesel and Durex came up with the idea of building a massive mountain of 200,000 condoms as a backdrop.
Little to no effort was made to cast varied body types. Like in London and New York before it, the Milan runway was dominated by ultra-skinny models with Ashley Graham being among the few plus size models who appeared at the fashion week.
Third on the circuit, Milan Fashion Week 2023 has begun and as home to some of the biggest designer brands on the planet, this is one of the most anticipated events on the fashion calendar.
Milan Fashion Week 2023 follows hot on the heels of London Fashion Week and is packed full of some of the best Italian clothing brands on the market. Running from the 21st to the 27th of February 2023, now that we’re about half way through, we’ve seen shows from many big names including, Gucci, Moschino, Diesel, MaxMara, Fendi and Prada (amongst others), but there is plenty still to come.
Attended by fashion editors, influencers and celebrities if you’re eager to see what clothes and accessories will be hitting stores in the fall, you’ve come to the right place. With a reputation for beautiful cuts and exquisite fabric, Milan is also home to some of the best designer bags. We’ll be watching all the shows, so you don’t have to and reporting back on the Milan Fashion Week 2023 highlights here, and what it might mean for your wardrobe in the coming months. When someone leaves a job, regardless of the industry – even if you’re Gucci, one of the most famous fashion brands on the planet, there is always a handover period. With Alessandro Michele having departed the Italian fashion brand in November, and replacement Sabato De Sarno not set to show his first line for the brand until September, the fall/winter Milan Fashion Week 2023 collection was designed by the in-house creative team at Gucci, who previously worked with Michele. One of the most desired show tickets of the week, not just because the front row was always going to be teaming with celebrities – this season’s guests included Dakota Johnson. There was the undeniable question as to whether or not the former creative director’s signature would still be evident.
As the saying goes, the devil is all in the detail and as the Gucci show invites were seen being readied to be sent out on the brand’s Instagram page, they were delivered alongside polaroid shots of the new collection. Although full looks were not revealed, just tiny details of Gucci’s recognizable GG logo and the brand’s iconic horsebit clasp decorating the best Gucci bags. It was obvious that while this collection would always be new, it would not be one that ignored the importance of heritage. A runway set that resembled a ’70s lounge, models entered and exited from lift doors, while guests were seated on semi circular leather couches sunken into the floor, or discreetly slipped around the edges of the room.

Sabato De Sarno will not present his first line for the brand until September, so the in-house creative team at Gucci designed the fall/winter Milan Fashion Week 2023 collection. The most coveted show tickets of the week were for Gucci, and there was much anticipation about whether Michele’s signature style would still be evident.
The devil is in the details, and Gucci’s show invites on Instagram, alongside polaroid shots of the new collection, hinted that the collection would respect the brand’s heritage, featuring the recognizable GG logo and the iconic horsebit clasp decorating the best Gucci bags. The runway was a ’70s lounge, and models entered and exited from lift doors while guests were seated on semi-circular leather couches sunken into the floor or discreetly slipped around the edges of the room.
