From Demna’s surprise debut collection to Giorgio Armani’s final farewell, these are the key moments from Milan Fashion Week SS26.
Gucci
Versace SS26
Demna kicked the week off with a surprise SS26 Gucci collection (previously, his first collection was due to be revealed next February).
Versace
The first Versace collection without a family member at the helm was presented. Although there was still classic Versace flair – Dario Vitale’s debut was inspired by Gianni’s late-’80s designs.
Dolce & Gabbana
Dolce & Gabbana presented an entire collection centred on sleepwear for SS26
Bottega Veneta
Louise Trotter debuted at Bottega Veneta with classic Italian craftsmanship and pioneering fabrics
Jil Sander
Simone Bellotti’s Jil Sander debut drew on the house’s minimalist codes and artistic references from Richard Prince and Lucio Fontana, balancing structure with lightness.
Giorgio Armani
The final collection by the late, great Giorgio Armani was unveiled in Milan’s incredible Pinacoteca di Brera.
