Charleston dancers for Alberta Ferretti 2009 spring summer collection at the Milan Fashion Week.

A splash into the 20ees for the Alberta Ferretti collection, with fringed dresses, laces and sparkling applications. Sweet and soft lines with fringes, pleated lines and asymmetrical cuts.

light and evanescent tones such as powder colour, silver, beige and light blue, and lively energy tones like orange, blue, purple and red as counterpart of the softer tones.

The Milan Fashion Week still on, and we are going to show you Giorgio Armani collection today.

For next 2009 spring summer, the designer imagined of a woman full of class that doesn’t show off her sensuality, in fact, she let it go through an accurate attention to her style and elegance. Smooth shapes on a silhouette, gently caressing the body. Smooth skirts, light dresses, perfect jackets, straight Bermuda and trousers for the Giorgio Armani’s woman, him, kindly following his woman with soft movements with no constrictions.

Soft fabrics with laced patterns for the night, paillettes and strass. Soft and shaded tones, most likely in grey and pastel nuances, of which Giorgio Armani is making us falling in love with.

It just reaches your ankle, it looks like a boot and competes with pumps. This shoe, widely known as ankle boot, gained the approval of the world of fashion last year already, but this year even more is one of the most wanted must have of next fall winter.

Ankle boots trend in every possible material, patent leather or leather, but fashion houses picked suede as most used fabric, as Prada and Fendi, Roger Vivier and Cesare Paciotti can confirm, also presenting them in purple.

Perfect with stretch trousers, and chic if combined with a skirt, ankle boot is a guaranteed item for women’s closets, an item available in almost all 2009 fall winter accessories collections.

While we carry on our journey into the world of fashion to discover next spring summer collections, we are going to introduce you Moschino Cheap&Chic young collection.

Pastel tones creating flowers, landscapes, lawns and shady sunsets, small animals too, from time to time, as fairy tales like characters of this explosion of colours.

The girl dressing Moschino Cheap&Chic is a young woman who takes care of her own style, and goes into summer with her rasta hats together with long and romantic dresses, confy blouses and small flowery dresses or Lolita style skirts, long or short trousers of smooth fabric.

Roberto Raimondi and Tommaso Aquilano at their first premier at the Milano Moda Donna as creative directors of Gianfranco Ferré maison.

The two designers brought news on the Milano Moda Donna stage, re inventing the traditional asset of the maison towards newer horizons. Elegance and attention to details, the richness and peculiarity of fabrics, they all remain as main guide line, an heritage from the master Gianfranco Ferré. Add to that, a new conception of shapes, of cuttings and volumes.

The whole collection reveals an evident expression of contemporaneity, visible in the geometric cuts of shapes, whose rigid designs, specially for the shoulders, are evident. More than that, steady rouches laying over sculptural dresses and skirts, precise silhouettes and strong cuts.

Coherent with the woman collection, Gucci fashion house is proposing a gypsy style together with the Russian military influences for next fall winter collection.

Military jackets, caban and double breasted coats are going to preserve the Gucci man from the cold season, and Frida Giannini is enriching her man’s wardrobe with the very well known uniform charme whose inspiration comes straight from the old military Russia.

The Milan fashion week for next 2009 spring summer collections carry on and after Frankie Morello and Just Cavalli, we are going to introduce the Emporio Armani spring summer collection.

Elegant blazers and sophisticated jackets, short or long wide trousers, fresh mini dresses or ultra light blouses, these are the mains of Emporio Armani’s day time woman, having it all enriched with selected accessories, such as sandals, hats and necklaces.

At night, in fact, free way to precious laces, small pearls on delicate fabrics such as organza and tulle where nice butterflies rest. As for colours, Giorgio Armani keeps faith to his favourite blue, grey, black and white, and neutral pastel tonalities.

Our fashion boutique, Giglio In, is going to host the “Pink Attitude Tour Exhibition” from the 8 to the 18th of October. The exhibition is dedicated to the so called “Pink Attitude Movement” and to the book “The Pink Attitude, The Contemporary Female Creativity”.

The presentation of the book is going to be held at the Giglio In store.

The opening party of the event will be full of surprises and nice gadgets for all guests of our fashion store.

Over the wind rose and on sandy catwalk stands the woman by Just Cavalli. His woman will be faithful to the distinctive savage soul and verve she’s always been keen on.

Softer tones, less animal print dresses and leopard or snake skin trousers. In fact, this collection witnesses a new born personality, sweet and precious, different but not in contrast, with that typical malicious and determination side so peculiar of the Just Cavalli woman. Lots of 20ees like light little dresses, lace and patchwork printed fabrics with pastel colours. And on the catwalk, dresses and t-shirts printed with Eva and Roberto Cavalli face.

Saturday was the opening day of the Milan Woman Fashion and plenty brands have already gone through the catwalk. Today we are going to introduce Frankie Morello spring summer 2009 new collection.

Colour is the first thing as in his collection, Frankie Morello plays with richness and chromatic variety in a perfect game. Starting with white and safari beige the different tonalities appear on its won at first, in a blast of power, and then together, with strong combinations.

Shapes vary from slim to volume in skirts and sleeves. Mini dresses and asymmetrical skirts, long and stretch, or incredibly short trousers with Saharan style jackets also valid as dresses. A sparkling collection, whose young soul belongs to fashion named by Frankie Morello.

Over Venezia film festival actress Charlize Theron has been under the spot light on the red carpet for her fantastic mises. On that occasion we have been talking about her Gucci and Versace looks and about her Roger Vivier sandals she combined with one of those mises.

And now, we want to check these splendid sandals a bit closer. It’s black patent leather asymmetric double buckled sandals representing just one of the many creations of the Roger Vivier fall winter 2008/09 collection. We got use to Roger Vivier’s shoes, peculiar and original, always tasteful, but never exceeding it…just like him!

Different models for different taste, properly confy and lasting in time. Peuterey jackets are made out of materials and fabrics good for any weather conditions as rain and cold temperatures.

Apart from comfort and practical advantages, they are conceived for a man of no matter what age, who does care for what he wears, keen on the casual and dynamic mood of Peuterey collections. Suggestions for next fall winter 2008/09 man go from sportive parkas to classic caban.

New season approaching and the new must of the season coming closer. Gucci collections catch our eye for their accessories. Season after season, Gucci fashion house creates and enhances brand new bags collections immediately becoming a must.

Gucci Hysteria collection from last season is a perfect example. These bags have immediately caught celebs and fashion addicted attention thanks to the old icon of the Gucci fashion house, the Gucci Crest, renewed for the occasion.

As for winter, Gucci maison suggestion is the Hysteria collection too with colours as chocolate from the Guccissima leather or golden from the lame leather, ideal for clutches and the new GG Crystal fabric versions.

Urban soul, tri dimensional graphical games, lurex and latex fabrics effect are the leading lines of the 2008/09 Versace fall winter collection by Donatella Versace. A collection entirely dominated by the meeting of shapes, volumes and geometrical suggestions, where an architectural design orientated tailoring comes from.

Versace fashion for next season is an extraordinary melange of femininity and severity. A showing off of décolleté and backs well in evidence, draperies ending up in pockets, small dresses and fabric games as to emphasize sometimes breasts, sometimes narrow wastes, they all meet in Versace collection with a triumph of architectural shapes, geometrical volumes, urban glamorous fabrics and colours.

Blue is the leading colour on dresses and shoulder items, leaving the floor, from time to time, to bright colours such as yellow, fuchsia and purple. Monochrome is the main choice of the collection, but attention diverts as well to German artist Tim Roelofs and his works, an inspiration for the Versace new printed fantasy.
