If you’re getting fashion month fatigue, Milan had a few things up its sleeve to perk you up. From multiple debuts of creative directors at houses like Etro, Missoni, and Ferragamo to Prada’s continued success with the unstoppable design duo of Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons and Bottega Veneta’s scene-stealing show, the week left us sated with fashion for days. (That is, until Paris Fashion Week kicks off tomorrow.) Scroll through to read about and see the best looks of the week. Andiamo!

Sunday’s Armani show was 50 shades of beige…then gray, then purple. A gradient of muted and pastel tones shimmered with sequins, beading, and metallic threading, giving the collection a soft femininity that felt lighter than air. The sheer tops and netting? They added just the right dose of grit. The veteran designer remarked that he had drawn inspiration from “other worlds.” Let your imagination run wild on this one.—Meg Donohue, associate fashion commerce editor

Matthieu Blazy of Bottega Veneta is defining the modern wardrobe as we know it today. Read our review here.

Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana invited their ultimate muse, Kim Kardashian, to dig into the brand’s archives, specifically the ’90s and early aughts, and curate a collection of reissued looks. The result is a glimpse into the pieces that defined D&G then and Kardashian’s classic style now: lots of skin, corsetry, sharp tailoring, low-waist pants—in short, Italian sensuality. A vision of the past, brought into the present and reinterpreted for the future. We’re just trying to keep up.—Kevin LeBlanc, fashion associate

It’s hard to envision Etro without paisley prints, and yet that was exactly what happened at its spring 2023 show. Creative director Marco de Vincenzo—who had one month to design his first collection for the brand—wound up showing a decidedly more structured take on the modern bohemian. Still filled with graphic motifs, the collection featured denim brocade, embroidery, mini skirts, and crop tops. One of the more eye-catching pieces? The designer’s take on fringe, which leaned stiffly to the side, evoking the idea of always being in motion.—Dale Chong, senior fashion commerce editor

No, you’re not seeing double. Gucci found 68 identical twins to walk the runway of its Twinsburg show. Each walked on opposite sides of a raised wall that pulled up to reveal that the other half of the audience was watching the same show, on the other twin. A mindfuck for your fashion nerves.—Kevin LeBlanc, fashion associate

Missoni may be known for its prismatic, kaleidoscopic takes on ready-to-wear fashion, but things are different for spring 2023. Models stomped down the runway in black-and-white ensembles, with the exception of those who wore monochromatic looks in yellow, cyan, and magenta, marking this Missoni collection one for minimalists. One might assume that this may mean a new direction for the label (and no doubt, it certainly is). However, as you may have already noticed, these are the five shades one needs to create an infinite number of colors—which means the possibilities for what’s to come are endless.—Dale Chong, senior fashion commerce editor

On a rainy Sunday morning in Milan, Ferragamo (sans Salvatore) got a breath of fresh air via its new creative director, Maximilian Davis. Davis got his start with his eponymous brand, raised under the astute tutelage of Lulu Kennedy of the Fashion East group in London. His eye for clean silhouettes, minimal proportions, and ease of wear translated into the rich and luxe history of the Italian brand. The main takeaway was his light hand reworking the iconic leather goods the brand is known for. Now that he’s gotten his debut out of the way, we can’t wait to see what he cooks up next.—Kevin LeBlanc, fashion associate

What happens when you mix opulent glamour with utilitarian design fundamentals? The result may well be Jil Sander’s spring 2023 collection. Filled with equal parts tailoring and daytime pieces that will likely be seen at the office and eye-catching feathers, sequins, and fringe, the label plays with this idea of duality, showing you that yes, you can pair a shimmering dress with Birkenstock sandals. The collection features plenty of pieces ready for those who want to make an understatement statement, and you can bet we’re on board.—Dale Chong, senior fashion commerce editor

The candlelit room, somber-yet-sexy music, and vampy neon brides at Versace confirmed what we’ve been thinking all along: the goth girl is back. Donatella Versace sent out her sexiest spin on the revival, including plenty of Y2K cargo pants, silk tops, and platforms to touch the clouds in. The finishing early aughts touch? Paris Hilton closing the show in hot neon pink chainmail. That’s hot.—Kevin LeBlanc, fashion associate

No one does sexy quite like Blumarine—but this time around, the label is wading into deeper waters with a collection inspired by mermaids. But rather than leaning into the girly aesthetic we often see from the label, Blumarine puts out the siren song that is its spring 2023 collection. Think: ultra-flared, dark-wash denim, romantic draping, billowing trains, and endless ruffles that bring soft jellyfish to mind—oh, and there was also plenty of mesh and loose knits, too. One of our favorite details? The metal shell-shaped bras that have us thinking about if The Little Mermaid’s Ariel went goth.—Dale Chong, senior fashion commerce editor

Dean and Dan Caten of Dsquared2 put the “summer” in spring/summer 2023. The ready-to-wear collection boasts a carnival of colors and patterns, creating an overall vibe that says 1970s meets Y2K, or Venice meets Milan, literally. We’re talking bright plaids, sheer ruffles, and metallic layers.—Meg Donohue, associate fashion commerce editor

Nobody does extra quite like Jeremy Scott, and his spring/summer 2023 collection is no different. Inflatable pool toys, floaties, and literal life preservers appear in evening dresses and workwear, like this gown adorned with inflatable animals. You can’t help but laugh as you inevitably question what is real and what isn’t.—Claire Stern, digital deputy editor

To quote Summer Roberts, “Miuccia Prada combines styles from time periods in a way that people never even imagined possible.” Add Raf Simons to the mix, and you’ve got a truly unique POV. Case in point: dresses made from a paper-based fabric, intentional wrinkles, and a mixing of pieces for day and night, indoor and outdoor. A delightful combination of contrasts.—Claire Stern, digital deputy editor

The Max Mara show can be summarized as clean and sophisticated with the well thought out silhouettes. Monochromatic ensembles were comprised of pale yellow, periwinkle, sage green, black, cream, and camel. Wide-leg trousers were paired with fitted bandeaus, box-shaped blazers with short shorts. And who could forget the wide floppy hats that just beg to be donned while floating down the French Riviera?—Meg Donohue, associate fashion commerce editor

Hot of the heels (or, uh, furry wedge mules) of its NYFW show celebrating the 25th anniversary of its iconic Baguette bag, Fendi descended upon Milan to showcase a collection of old-meets-new. Mainly, Kim Jones drew upon Karl Lagerfeld’s work from 1996 to 2002. “It’s about continuity,” Jones says in a press release. “I am interested in looking at things that Karl has done, and seeing how we can develop them—both visually and technically.” Take, for instance, this riff on a floral print from the Fendi archives laid over a 2000s-era logo. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, after all.—Claire Stern, digital deputy editor

If you need further proof that Diesel is back, consider its spring/summer 2023 show, attended by Julia Fox, Normani, and Evan Mock. Or the fact that it broke a Guinness World Record (for the world’s largest ever inflatable sculpture, positioned in the center of the runway). Creative director Glenn Martens hoped it would give those were weren’t there a spectacle, and indeed it did.—Claire Stern, digital deputy editor
