Milan Fashion Week SS19: Moschino

Jeremy Scott’s spring/summer 19 offering for Moschino quite literally brought to life his sketches. The collection celebrated the crafts of design and the elements that go into the creation process. Many of the looks featured prints that were suggestive of felt tip pens colouring in, mirroring the sketches the designer creates ahead of his show. Jeremey had posted one of the sketches on the brand’s Instagram account earlier in the day to highlight his style of sketches and the ready-to-wear pieces brought this to life.

 

 

Stockings, T-shirts and accessories were ‘coloured in’ with a felt tip affect, while stripes and patterns looked as though they had been drawn onto garments with the same felt tip pens. The show setting had sketches plastered on the walls and roles of unused materials placed next to the catwalk.

 

And it wasn’t only the felt tip effect that referenced the putting together of a collection – models wore looks that mimicked the tools used by a fashion designer. A scarf that looked like a tape measure, a huge pair of metallic scissors worn over a dress, some models even walked the catwalk with the remainder of a role of material still attached to the garment they were wearing. One model was even dressed as a mannequin. It seemed Jeremy really wanted the audience to understand the elements that go into creating a collection.

 

 

Of course a designer with model friends attracts the models of the moment and Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid and co were all leading the way on the catwalk. Gigi in fact closed the show in a fantastical wedding gown. Cropped above the knee and featuring a huge moving train of butterflies that had to be carried by four men.

 

 

Evening wear started off chic with a black lace jumpsuit but became more glitzy and creative as the looks went on. Pink sparkly materials fit for a Barbie doll made the collection full on girly.

 

Scott also used the show to promote his new fragrance Toy 2. Kendall Jenner walked the runway carrying a huge oversize  model of the scents teddy bear shaped bottle.

 

All in all another quirky yet unpredictable collection from the extravagant designer.
