Milan Fashion Week: Prada blooms, Emporio Armani shimmers

Florals bloomed on skirts, shoes and from the ceiling at Italian designer label Prada’s Milan Fashion Week show on Thursday (Feb 23)

Designers Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons turned wedding dresses into everyday looks, opening their autumn/winter 2023-24 catwalk presentation with a range of long and short white skirts embellished with white flowers and paired with knits.

Utility suits became long shirt dresses with trains, while large boxy jackets were matched with slim ankle-length trousers in mainly dark shades.

Models wore shirts with stick-out shoulders, knits and jackets with colourful inside collars, and pastel-coloured cigarette trousers paired with ribbed tops.

Kitten heels in a range of colours bore cut-out floral patterns.

The collection also featured white puffer and dark asymmetrical mini skirts, colourful printed dresses, buttoned capes and duffel coats.

Last month, the Hong Kong-listed fashion group said it had appointed a new chief executive, Andrea Guerra, taking the place of Patrizio Bertelli and Miuccia Prada and easing a transition to the next generation of the founding family.

At Emporio Armani, models walked on a round catwalk to present the latest collection of veteran designer Giorgio Armani’s second line.

The 88-year-old designer, affectionately called “King Giorgio” in his native Italy, presented a sleek offering with plenty of black that was brightened with pinks, reds and purples.

Jackets had asymmetric buttons, velvet trouser suits were loose and comfy, while black and lilac evening looks shimmered with sequins.

“It is a collection under the sign of discretion even in displaying a slightly eccentric fashion,” Armani told reporters.

He will present his latest collection for his main Giorgio Armani line on Sunday.

Milan Fashion Week is the third leg of the month-long catwalk calendar, during which designers present their autumn/winter 2023-24 collections.

how to add serums into an effective beauty routine

One of the first things we’re told about beauty and skincare is how important it is to understand our skin type. However, Dr Ellie Bradley, science credentialing manager for No7 Beauty, says the key to shopping smart is slightly less about skin types and more about your specific skin goals. “What serum you should use is mainly dependent on the aims you have for your skin, rather than your skin type or age, as everyone’s skin journey is different,” she says.

“If smoothing skin is your primary aim, then No7’s Protect & Perfect Serum is a good choice. If you want to tackle uneven pigmentation or a loss of firmness, the Lift & Luminate Serum from No7 would be ideal. Then, for thinner-feeling skin or to target the neck area, the Restore & Renew Serum from No7 is a good choice. Finding a serum that caters to your goals is key,” says Dr Bradley.

For beauty journalist, Lucy Partington, shopping smart is all about bringing things back to basics. “There are so many different types of serum available now, it can be quite confusing, but think on a very basic level: check the product name, understand what it’s designed to do and see if that matches the effect you want for your skin.

“Perhaps you want to hydrate, brighten or exfoliate. You can also focus on ingredients that will work for your skin. Wonder ingredients to look out for include hyaluronic acid, salicylic acid and vitamin C.”

Lisa Rinna is living her best life out there absolutely slaying yet another fashion week. 

This time she’s all decked out for London Fashion Week in an age-defying look.

The former Real Housewife of Beverly Hills, 59, shared three snaps of her rocking the Girls Don’t Cry suit from designer Dilara.

The beige jacket has puffy sleeves. She wore it over a sheer white top with corset lacing through her torso. The bell-shaped cuffs peek out from the ends of the jacket’s sleeves.

Lisa – who rocked an edgy look last week at New York Fashion Week – completed the look with sheer, white, thigh-high stockings and white shoes.

Her spiky hair was styled in a punk rock manner and her makeup complemented the earth tones of her outfit. 

This latest stylist look comes the day after she absolutely worked the red carpet at the BAFTAs on Sunday.

The reality television star wore a lacy black slip dress with a low neckline, and black leather knee-high boots. 

The mother-of-two teamed her outfit with a black blazer hanging from her shoulders and sported her signature spiky bob hairstyle. 

Her daughter Amelia Gray Hamlin, 21, walked the red carpet alongside her stunning mother wearing an avant-garde corset dress of black leather.

At another London Fashion Week event, the Melrose Place actress flashed her midriff as she went braless in a sheer sequin top. The beauty paired her top with gold sequined bootcut pants
