With Christmas around the corner, it felt only right to explore what that girl has on her list. From leather-bound journals and vintage designer finds to sustainability and self-investment, this post dives into the gifts fashion lovers are truly hoping to unwrap this year.

The first full day of Paris Fashion Week brought bold visions and standout moments from Lanvin, Courrèges, and Dries Van Noten. From Lanvin’s elegant revival in signature blue to Dries’ explosion of colour and Courrèges’ space-age cool, each house delivered something distinct, thoughtful, thrilling, and entirely their own. Let’s begin (chronologically, of course) with Lanvin…

Meryl Streep and Stanley Tucci stole the spotlight in character at Dolce & Gabbana’s Milan show, filming scenes for The Devil Wears Prada 2 — right beside Anna Wintour, no less. But the real drama was on the runway. Titled “PJ Obsession,” the SS26 collection delivered 66 looks of unapologetic striped glamour, luxurious loungewear, and seductive Sicilian tailoring. It was theatrical, maximalist, and undeniably Dolce. Who knew pyjamas could look this powerful?

From Marco Rambaldi’s crochet masterpieces to Blumarine’s butterfly-filled femininity and Tod’s leather-forward approach, Milan Fashion Week SS26 offered a diverse mix of craftsmanship, drama, and quiet luxury. Here’s my take on the standout moments, favourite looks, and textures that defined each collection.

Moschino’s SS26 collection was a masterclass in fashion absurdity—bold, theatrical, and brilliantly bizarre in all the right ways. From wearable potato sacks to gravity-defying hats and recycled patchwork gowns, this was fashion with a punchline and a purpose.

Demna Gvasalia’s highly anticipated Gucci debut arrived not with a runway, but with a meticulously curated look book and cinematic short film. Titled La Famiglia, the digital collection showcased 37 distinct characters, blending nostalgic nods to Tom Ford’s Gucci with a boldly modern identity. With “The Tiger” film premiere, a full social rebrand, and a city buzzing with fashion’s elite, Demna’s vision for Gucci is clear: this is more than fashion - it’s a cultural reset.

Diesel kicked off MFW SS26 with a city-wide egg hunt and 55 full runway looks sealed in transparent capsules. Forget the catwalk - this show took over the streets of Milan, blending fashion, fun, and full-blown chaos in true Diesel style.
