The creative world of Alessandro Michele continues to captivate us all. The show took on a Seventies spin with flower-power prints and retro silhouettes. While flared trousers and florals were aplenty at Gucci, there was a stronger sense of masculinity in the tailoring, as suits were streamlined and revived from past decades.

As for the collection, a distinctive western aesthetic guided the designs with cactus, horseshoe and pistol motifs embellished on much of the clothing. Shearling lined coats and warm winter woolies were wrapped around the models in a mirage of fine fashion.

The latest showings from Prada saw sailor motifs becoming a noticeable presence on the runway, along with wool tights and deconstructed shirting. Miuccia Prada’s vision for the collection saw retro inspired designs built with an edgier attitude. There was also a notable distinction between the collection and the current topical headlines making news around the world.

The laidback style that guided the heritage house was met with the label's iconic luxurious feel. The collection saw blue and black tartan robes, dusty pink fleeces, shearling lined coats and rolled turtle necks. Trousers were heavy and were tucked under thick knits, whilst bedroom slippers got given a new lease of life.
