Valentino AW22 collection in photos

Did anyone say black pink? No, not the K-pop girl group––we’re talking about the colour palette of Pierpaolo Piccioli’s latest collection for Valentino AW22, which was unveiled in a bubblegum-swathed showroom at the Le Carreau du Temple in Paris. This season, the creative director collaborated with Pantone Colour Institute to create a custom pink shade––that we can only describe as a pure dopamine hit––for the ‘Valentino Pink PP’ collection, designed to encourage a moment of reflection. “Pink is rampant everywhere, in a total estrangement that includes the set and that is reiterated by the occasional total black and total white intermissions. Pink as a manifestation of the unconscious and a liberation from the need for realism,” the house said in show notes. See every look in the collection now.

Tod’s AW22 collection in photos

Italian heritage meets continuous evolution: for its AW22 collection, Tod’s looked to the beauty and style in Italian landscapes. Under the creative direction of Walter Chiapponi, these icons of ‘Italian Beauty’ have been reimagined as modern and versatile wardrobe staples that are gender-fluid in concept, yet shapely in silhouette. Voluminous knitwear is soft and sensual to touch, with a bohemian medley of fabric and leather. The warm and neutral hues extend to accessories, where the Di Bag and T Timeless bags are transformed with a modern take on traditional craftsmanship. Below the knees, the laced W.G. ankle boot has likewise been updated with suede elements and sporty, masculine-inspired proportions. Click to see every look!

Sportmax AW22 collection in photos

Dial S for self-empowering, sensuality. Unveiled in a hot pink, club-like corridor, Sportmax's AW22 collection was a manifesto of empowment through a sartorial deconstruction of deeply-engrained fetishist ideals of the femme fatale (albeit through the male gaze). From Lilith to Hitchcockian muse Kim Novak and pin-up star Jessica Rabbits, iconic archetypes on the big screen and throughout pop culture were reconfigured for the birth of new sex symbols. Hourglass jackets, exaggerated shoulders and androgynous minimalism come together through tailored construction and an exploration of the body to form contemporary interpretations of form-fitting looks, awashed in a twilight palette of black, midnight blue, coffee, nude, alongside pops of fuschia and red.

Bottega Veneta AW22 collection in photos

For Matthieu Blazy's debut collection, the designer returns to the very beginning with the fundamental question of 'What makes Bottega Veneta, Bottega Veneta?' "In essence, pragmatic because it is a leather goods company. Because it specialises in bags, it is about movement, of going somewhere; there is fundamentally an idea of craft in motion. It is style over fashion in its timelessness," he says. The result? An understated collection highlighting the essence of quiet power, something felt, rather than seen.

Exquisite Gucci collection in photos

After two years of showing abroad, Gucci finally returns to the Milan runway. Creative Director Alessandro Michele says, “I use the metaphor of the magical mirror to approach the phantasmagorical power of fashion. A sacred power that radiates from the surface of the fabric”. The long-awaited Gucci x Adidas Originals collaboration was also revealed, featuring numerous sporty silhouettes remixed with Gucci’s signature house codes. Click through to see all the looks!

Versace AW22 collection in photos

Dreaming of a glamorous post-pandemic night out? Versace has you covered. For AW22, their latest collection turned up the heat with the unmistakable Atelier Versace bustier at its core to usher the house forward for the next generation of modern It-girls. “Our cast of Versace Women for Fall-Winter 2022 is exciting,” Donatella Versace said. “Girls like Avanti, Anyier and Tilly perfectly represent a Versace with new generation attitude and they champion diversity. They embody the energy running through the collection and the looks built on contrast and tension—like an elastic band pulled tight and about to snap-back with a build-up of energy. That feeling is just irresistible to me. It opens new possibilities and makes things happen.” See every look now.

Moschino AW22 collection in photos

For Moschino’s AW22 collection, Jeremy Scott delved into the space of the surreal, taking inspiration directly from the Moschino archives: In 1989 and 1990, Franco Moschino had introduced cutlery brooches and hot-and-cold faucet handles in his ready-to-wear. Staged in a replicated set of the hotel bedroom in Stanley Kubrick’s ‘2001: A Space Odyssey’, opulent furnishings and decorations came alive across dresses, skirt-suits and outerwear. Glittering chandelier motifs swing on bodies, while silverware come into play as golden decorations of a bodice or as wraps on high heels. Click to see every look now.

Max Mara AW22 collection in photos

This season, Creative Director Ian Griffiths pays tribute to the renowned 20th-century Swiss painter, designer, sculptor and architect, Sophie Taeuber-Arp. “What I recognised in her work was the sense of the ability to fuse modernism with a sense of folkloristic fairy-tale magic. That was precisely the ingredient I wanted to inject in this collection,” he says. Swipe to see every look now!

Salvatore Ferragamo AW22 collection in photos

For Autumn/Winter 2022, Salvatore Ferragamo opted for an immersive presentation at the neoclassical Sala delle Cariatidi of Milan's Palazzo Reale instead of its usual ready-to-wear runway. Accompanied by a fashion film, the new collection reflected the global shift towards casualisation, deconstructing the codes of "casual" to rebuild them in a spirit of liberated precision and fluid expression. Silhouettes were modern and slender, mixing evening wear accents such as dramatic ruffles with everyday versatility across outerwear, knits and separates. See every look now.
