Oh, Milano! Home to Prada, Versace, Gucci, Miu Miu, Fendi and so many more, your influence on the fashion world is nothing short of iconic. A city that breathes style, Milan has long been a breeding ground for major trends—and there’s no better time to witness its magic than between late February and early March, otherwise known as Milan Fashion Week.
For a dazzling few days, Italy’s most stylish descend upon the city, turning its streets into a runway of outfit inspiration. And the Milanese? They never disappoint. More fabulous than their London counterparts and bolder than their Parisian sisters, Milan’s street style has a certain eccentricity that sets it apart.
Inspired by the flurry of note-worthy fashion, I’ve combed through hundreds of street style images to pinpoint the biggest trends taking over the city right now. Keep reading to discover the Milan-approved looks defining this season.
5 MILAN FASHION WEEK STREET STYLE TRENDS TO KNOW ABOUT NOW
1. PRETTY IN PINK
Style Notes: A pretty retort to last year's obsession with fiery red hues, this softer, gentler shade has quietly swept onto the Milan street-style scene this season. Like the first blush of spring, it brings a fresh, optimistic energy that fashion’s elite have wholeheartedly embraced. From head-to-toe monochrome moments to subtle accents in handbags and heels, this shade is having its moment right now.
This pretty pink shade layers so well over relaxed neutrals.
Add a dose of optimism to your spring-time wardrobe.
SHOP PINK CLOTHING:
While I love this in the pink, it also comes in ten other shades.
Style this with the matching trousers or pair it with a relaxed pair of jeans.
This is large enough to stow away your daily essentials.
2. ROUNDED-TOE SHOES
Style Notes: For seasons, pointed-toe shoes have reigned supreme in the street style scene. But this time, a fresh, sinuous contender is stepping into the spotlight. Gently ousting their angular predecessors, rounded-toe styles have been making waves in Milan—gracing everything from towering boots to elegant heels. The verdict? This season, no chic shoe feels complete without a softly curved finish.
