Milan Fashion Week Spring 2016 Hits and Misses (Forum Buzz)

The Misses: Salvatore Ferragamo, MSGM, Arthur Arbesser; Images: Imaxtree

THE MISSES:

Salvatore Ferragamo

“I feel like the Ferragamo brand is always one step behind. This could have been fresh a few seasons ago, but today it looks overdesigned.” [dodencebt]

“Nice overall but I really don’t like the striped outfits.” [Emmanuelle]

“The stripes really ruin it, looks a bit Prada, not very nice. The beginning few looks are the best, he should have gone down that route.” [gossiping]

MSGM

“I really like the pale blue ruffled top, shame about the rest though.” [Nomar]

“If he just toned it down a bit…” [gossiping]

“Few looks, in the final part of the collection are similar to Versus and Vaccarello.” [Fashionstuff]

Arthur Arbesser

“It’s ugly in the worst possible way, just like his Iceberg show. Uninteresting, unappealing and boring. That guy just isn’t talented enough to lead any brand.” [perhydrol]

“The striped looks look like they’re stained. It looks dirty, like when you spill coffee on white fabric.” [AnaD]

Forum members have expectations from these big Italian brands and should those expectations not be met? The commentary daggers come out — fast and furious.

Jil Sander

“Love it. So pristine. Sometimes these minimalist collections can get really boring and tedious, but not here.” [MyNameIs]

“Everything is quite stunning. I adore the pops of colour and the delicious fabrics.” [jmrmartinho]
