The Milan Fashion Week Fall-Winter 2015-16 Menswear Collections in Review

For a few days, Milan became once again the fashion capital of the world, as a series of Italian and International designers showcased their collections for the fall-winter 2015-16 season during Milan Fashion Week.

Some of the most famous fashion brands displayed their creations: from Gucci and Dolce and Gabbana to Jil Sander and Corneliani, everyone met in Milan to launch new trends and new styles for the coming season.

Milan is known to be one of the most stylish cities in the world, where even the police wears designer cloths, and the menswear collections displayed during this year’s MFW were proof of this fact. Unlike the collections displayed during London Collections: Men, which were nonetheless great, but where we could see many experimental fashions and unconventional styles, most looks we saw during Milan Fashion Week were extremely wearable and practical and something every man can take as a good example of how you can dress during the cold season.

Once again, the designers delivered a great and very varied palette of sharply-tailored suits, great coats, luxurious shirts and even of sportswear. Even though it’s hard to generalize, the predominant color scheme was a rather dark one, with deep hues being one of the main trends one could pinpoint on the runway. This, however, is not necessarily something strange or bad, as autumn collections usually tend to be more muted and less crazy than spring-summer collections. Even though it seems that the fall-winter 2015-16 season will be a more conservative season (at least in the eyes of the MFW designers) just from a chromatic point of view, but, despite this, most designers played with interesting cuts and shapes that made the clothes go from great fashion to investment piece.

When it came to styling, the number one trend you couldn’t miss had to be the messy long hair. Almost every designer who showcased during this fashion week chose to have his or her models styled with long, messy-looking hair.

In terms of accessories, we could see a lot of big bags and interesting hats that completed the looks of many of the shows, as well as great shoes and very many huge scarves. Apparently, we can already say that next season, accessory-wise it will be all about big pieces.

From rich materials and glam-rock outfits to funky hats and streetwear, this fashion week had everything! Looking at different looks from the collection, you can take a lot of fashion rules with you and learn how to break others.

Honestly speaking; the milan collections were a bore. It was as cliched as menswear could be and besides the ambiance and the setting, there was really nothing new to offer in terms of “fashion innovation”

Compared to other fashion weeks, the shows were definitely more conservative, so in a way, we were expecting more from them as well. However, as we said in the article, we felt there there were plenty of interesting things to see too :).
