From Milan Fashion Week FW 2025-2026: the 7 strongest fashion trends to wear
Milan has closed its runways, leaving behind a wave of inspiration (and some controversy, of course)
If you were expecting revolutions, reforms, or plot twists, know that fashion, this time, played it smart. The big fashion houses focused on an elegance designed to last, balancing new interpretations of minimalism with unexpected comebacks. Some things surprised us, others we had already figured out, but one thing is certain: here’s what we’ll be wearing next fall-winter, in a clear and direct way.
Gucci: oversized tailoring and effortless attitude
The opulence of the old Gucci is in constant evolution. A new kind of elegance emerges, blending soft structure with freedom of movement. Oversized jackets and coats have a relaxed yet sophisticated air, designed for those who love a strong style with the perfect balance of glamour and refinement.
Max Mara: the evolution of classicism
This brand doesn’t need to shock, and in fact, it doesn’t. Max Mara knows exactly who it is and what it wants (and so do we): perfect coats, impeccable tailored suits, and a monochrome palette that never gets old. Solid, reassuring, flawless. Maybe not the collection we’ll remember forever, but for those who love quiet luxury, this feels like home.
Prada: fashion as protection
Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons are dressing us for the future (or for a world where dressing well is a form of defense). Sculptural volumes, technical materials, and a palette that mixes cool tones with sudden warm accents. There’s an almost romantic idea of protection, of fashion that wraps and reassures.
Versace: structured sensuality
Donatella knows that those who choose Versace want to own the room. So here come sculpted corsets, column dresses, leather, and strong shoulders. The palette is a mix of passionate reds and deep blacks, and every outfit seems to scream: “look at me.” A bold Versace, with no half-measures. Maybe not for everyone, but definitely for those who know their worth.
Dolce & Gabbana: for a Gen Z that isn’t afraid to stand out
Dolce & Gabbana has launched a collection that screams 'young and free,' designed for those who want to make a statement. Blending streetwear with red carpet touches, the brand has crafted its new language: a fearless, no-holds-barred glamour that invites you to take center stage. Bold colors, silhouettes that shift from oversized to sexy in an instant. If Gen Z were an outfit, it would be Dolce & Gabbana.
Etro: a timeless journey between tradition and innovation
Etro takes us to a world where past and future intertwine. With ethnic motifs, refined fabrics, and a mix of elegance and free spirit, the brand reminds us that adventure isn’t just about miles traveled, but about style. Perfect for those who want to look like a contemporary Indiana Jones, just with a touch of luxury and a lot of good taste. A wardrobe that tells stories of travel, with the refinement of an urban explorer.
Ferragamo: luxury that doesn’t shout, but speaks volumes
Ferragamo bids farewell to excess and welcomes effortless luxury. This collection is an exercise in chic minimalism, where quality is evident without the need to flaunt it. Oversized coats wrap you like a warm embrace, with clean cuts and pure lines. Ferragamo isn’t here to make noise, it’s here to prove that elegance, when discreet yet powerful, needs no explanation.
Milan has made itself clear: next fall-winter won’t be about upheavals, but about solidity, refinement, and pieces that will stay with us for a long time. Which trend are you ready to make your own?
