Make it yours: From the subdued to the electric, color in all of its glory ruled the Milan runways. From prints to solids, there were no exceptions to be made. Go with what works for you, but keep the silhouette modern.
Modern Vintage-
Seen at: Prada, Gucci(above), Dolce & Gabbana
Make it yours: Heralded by Miuccia Prada some 20 years ago, geek/granny chic is a great way to add a touch of the personal to any look. Find pieces that have an antique feel, say a brocade topper or a top handle bag and pile away.
Skirt Suits-

Make it yours: Off-kilter suiting punctuated with eclectic accessories made for a refreshing return to the much talked about contemporary woman’s suit. Rejoice as these boxier, graphic options won’t have you mistaken for a politician or a granny. Be on the lookout for suits that boast gorgeous texture, prints & fabrications with extras like slits, contrasting hues and curved seams.
