Milan Fashion Week: Through their designs, Milan designers subtly conveyed their concern about the current condition of unrest throughout the world. According to Miuccia Prada, she wished to convey hope. “I think it was the right thing to do, even in these difficult times,” she remarked backstage during the Prada event. She’s not advocating for escape. “I eventually make a constructive suggestion, but I don’t like escapism.”

The designers of Simon Cracker, a company founded 14 years ago to offer recycled designs in opposition to the dominant fashion system, stated that it would be “irresponsible” to not use the platform to remark on the situation of the world.

“A Matter of Principle” is the collection’s dedication to “the children victims of matters of principle.”

Following Sunday’s third day of mostly menswear previews for Spring/Summer 2025, here are some highlights:

Prada conveys hope
The concept of imperfection is explored in the Prada menswear line. All is not as it seems, though.

Hoodies, jackets, and shirts appear cropped rather than shrunken. Three-quarter sleeves are found on overcoats. It’s a worn-out, inexplicably inherited wardrobe. Creases are as much a part of the construction as a pleat. Wires hold pointed shirt collars high. Faux belts on trousers are low, sitting below the waist. Additionally, belts are used to adorn bags as if to seal them.

Playing with the idea of the real against the phoney, as co-creative director of the brand alongside Raf Simons, Miuccia Prada stated, “is very contemporary,” calling such elements “an invitation to take a closer look at the clothes.”

The designers noted that the vibrant green cardigan, the floral shirt, and the turquoise coat suggest a mother’s or grandmother’s wardrobe, breaking up the neutral colour scheme. To layer, arrange pieces with cutouts of inverted triangles aligned up.

Backstage, Simons remarked, “We wanted (the collection) to be already alive, as if clothes you already lived with.”

Models for Prada appeared from a plain white hut and descended a runway surrounded by a white picket fence to enter the showroom. The scene is described by the designers as both youthful and utopian.

According to Prada, “youth is the hope and the future here.” “At this time, we felt it was important to encourage young people to consider our world as well.”

Unravelling the world at Simon Cracker
A world full of knots that need to be untied, just like the ones keeping the most recent Simon Cracker line of largely repurposed clothing together.

Designers Filippo Biraghi and Simone Botte put together their collection of reused garment castoffs for Spring/Summer 2025. They used drawstrings and laces to make dresses out of knitwear, skirts out of tennis shirt sections, and jackets that were restructured. Every component is unique.

Through dying, the “nervous” colour palette of acid green, sea blue, violet, and black was created. Each material responded to the process differently.

Behind the scenes, Biraghi remarked, “It is a way of recounting what is happening in the world, without being too explicit.” “It would be reckless not to engage in politics at this time.”

The name of the 14-year-old brand is intended to suggest that there is a flaw or crack in the fashion system. Using abandoned or neglected clothing and deadstock fabrics—this time from the Italian sportswear brand Australian—they accept imperfection as a feature of their creations’ beauty.

Australian, which is becoming more and more popular with clubgoers, also produced a technological and black neon capsule collection of clothing for Simon Cracker, its first manufacturing line. The footwear was donated by Doc Martens, and the designers embellished it with costume jewellery, badges, and pins.

JW Anderson’s Adequate Rest
The soft and spongy clothing in JW Anderson’s warm weather collection for men and women cocoons the form, which is an odd decision given the planet’s growing temperatures. Real Sleep, the collection’s apparent motto on tees, jackets, and sweaters, might be interpreted as a guide to surviving in the real world.

The Northern Irish designer explained following the show that the humorous collection “played with this idea of miniature scale and maximum scale.” Large quilted jackets led the way, giving way to large cashmere balls filled with yarn, each in triplicate.

With intarsia windows and doors, Anderson’s small rendition of Georgian terraced residences and country cottages was displayed on the front of knitwear.

Sweatshirts with pillows seemed sturdy enough to break a fall. As if to say, “The world is too much,” large, colourful constructions like silken balloons were deflated and attached to coats. If that’s the case, find solace in a cheerful pint of Guinness; the Irish stout is highlighted in a capsule collection that features humorous pictures of a promotion for knitwear from the previous century.

Anderson claimed to be investigating “the idea of permissiveness with the clothing. This idea of what we do best is the storytelling.”

Milan Fashion Week: Predominately intended for menswear previews, the event marked the end of the previous calendar norms on Friday when it opened with two co-ed collections. There are just twenty runway shows this week, so there should be ample opportunity to consider the direction that fashion is going. Following Canadian design brand Dsquared2, which debuted a complete male and womenswear collection, Moschino opened with a show that combined menswear for the upcoming summer and women’s 2025 resort.

Highlights from Friday’s Lost and Found show at Moschino during Milan Fashion Week
During his second term as creative director of Moschino, Adrian Appiolaza tore the rules to pieces.

“I want to bring the concept of freedom of expression through clothing to Moschino’s future, since it is connected to the brand’s original DNA,” Appiolaza remarked in the rear. Gender is not at issue here. Nationality is not a factor here. Essentially, it’s about dressing as you want to and not how you should, and being at ease.

As summer approaches in the northern hemisphere, the Argentine designer reads our collective minds, appealing to our longing to escape the daily grind of the workplace and travel to our ideal destinations. Along the way, familiar items change and daydreaming takes control.

Appiolaza uses large paperclips to create a shimmering tank. Embroidered onto a blazer are fabric post-its with jobs left undone. Another turns into a survival jacket for an office worker; nothing is hidden and it has pockets for pencils, notepads, credit cards, ID badges, charging cables and field guides. Later on, it transforms into an adventure jacket complete with a magnifying glass and field guides.

Dresses are created by disassembling suits and trenches. Then, as if to say, “Enough,” they are torn apart. The final straw was an aeroplane sitting on a hat. After that, a real straw skirt.

There’s a new line of safari clothing, beach pareos, knitwear with soccer ball patterns, skirts that double as postcards and blazers printed with an Italian table still life featuring bread, ripe tomatoes and a Chianti bottle.

With a modern and irreverent twist that is guaranteed to make people grin, the collection boldly embraces the sardonic and whimsical DNA of the design house. An ink spot is ready on a suit shirt. A sparkling pizza smear adorns a tank top, which is paired with an Italian tri-color skirt featuring soccer balls all over it. Men wear brimmed hats in triplicate, as though a fashion copy machine replicated and resized them.

“These characters are all explorers on a self-discovery journey,” Appiolaza remarked.

Dsquared2 increases the intensity
With their provocative and daring men’s and women’s collection for their Dsquared2 fashion brand, Canadian twin designers Dean and Dan Caten raised the stakes.

The twins termed it “bodacious theatricality,” but the Catens brought life to the fashionable theatre with a group of men dancing together beneath red lights while wearing sheer rubberized tanks and black pants.

The well-buffed collection included sheers, sequins, leather, and denim pieces that highlighted and exposed the body. There were only two panels to a denim garment, held in place by sequined vines. He wore asymmetric, off-the-shoulder knitwear that flaunted well-defined chests. Short shorts and sports number shirts were worn over sequin bikinis. Cascading chiffons exposed harnesses used for bondage.

Dan Caten remarked, “It’s sensual and sexual,” behind the scenes. We are experiencing a slight spicy feeling due to the Dsquared2 heat.

“We are bringing love,” Dean continued. We’re bringing a dream with us. Since reality as we know it is only partially true, we are delivering theatre, which is an escape from reality.
