In Milan, A Convincing Argument To Wear Mis-Match Shoes?
And just like that... the first fashion week of 2025 has arrived. Hot off the heels of the new year are the Milan Fashion Week shows presenting the AW25 menswear collections, with brands like Prada, Armani and Dolce & Gabbana on the schedule. Sure, there's much to glean from what's trending on the catwalk for our own wardrobes, but the offer is much richer for right here, right now with what's happening outdoors. Street style is back and there's a lot to take in.

From the stylish Milanese set to the fashion editors jetted in for a short, sharp visit, the trends that will go on to define 2025 are being presented here first along the Italian fashion capital's rather damp strade. Some have kept it top-to-toe for one singular designer whereas others have mixed things up so much so that odd shoes have even been spotted and, dare we say it, convincingly so.
So, while we more than appreciate what's happening for the guys on the catwalk, it's the women attending the shows that are giving us the style inspiration we need to take on winter dressing with aplomb right now.
