Milan Fashion Week like never before, from daring silhouettes and statement textures to the trends that will define the season, uncover the shows, the standout moments, and the creative energy that made the city’s runways unforgettable

Etro FW26

At Milan Fashion Week, Etro’s “Loop Forward” Fall/Winter 2026, directed by Marco De Vincenzo, unfolded as a story in constant motion, a narrative that moves in circles, forever evolving yet deeply rooted in heritage.

Bold prints collided with rich, layered textures, while statement accessories punctuated each look with intention. The collection reimagined bohemian elegance through a sharper, more contemporary lens, where tradition loops forward into the modern wardrobe with confidence and renewed energy.

Missoni FW26

“The act of getting dressed” following intuition and instinct, writing one’s own rules.

under the supervision of Alberto Caliri, this collection chooses the “evolutionary” approach over extreme alterations. The shirt frame is relaxed, easy to wear, but still detailed with intricate knitting techniques. The shape-fitting dress, cardigan and oversized coat that create dimensionally layered.

Fendi FW26

Maria Grazia Chiuri made a highly anticipated return to Fendi, unveiling her Fall/Winter 2026 collection for the Roman house with a vision grounded in unity. Inspired by the motto “Less I, more us", creative dialogue, and collective expression, balancing individuality with shared purpose.

The show delivered a masterclass in precise tailoring and elevated dressing. A predominantly neutral palette emphasized the quiet power of the silhouettes, interrupted only by subtle flashes of yellow and red.

MM6 Maison Margiela AW26 Show

A show that felt like pure movement, industrial, urgent, and quietly precise. The silhouettes played with proportion and function: sharp shoulders, elongated lines, layered uniforms, and that MM6 kind of ease that still reads radical up close. Styling stayed stripped-back but intentional, letting texture and cut do the talking under the station’s hard light and echo. Milan energy, Margiela logic.

JIL SANDER FW26

The new JIL SANDER Fall/Winter 2026 collection by Simone Bellotti. The house as a home, and a constant questioning that continues. Presented at JIL SANDER’s historic Piazza Castello headquarters.

Set against a subdued palette of washed neutrals with hints of black, blue, and grey, the collection explored motion through form and construction. Structured tailoring featured pronounced shoulders, fluid collars, and subtly displaced details that gave each piece a dynamic edge. Precisely cut slits energized coats and blazers, while reworked upholstery fabrics sculpted refined hourglass shapes. Airy dresses drifted with effortless softness, offering a graceful counterpoint to the collection’s sharper lines.

Max Mara FW26

Max Mara’s Fall/Winter 2026 collection embraces a rich spectrum of earthy tones paired with sumptuous textures like suede and tactile knits. The result is a collection that feels grounded yet refined, crafting the image of a woman who is strong, self-assured, and effortlessly independent.
