MFW diary: Worshipping Marni while lusting after Brioni
As I am waiting for Brioni to begin, I notice that all the staff is wearing the latest object of my affection: the horn necklace worn by Irina Lazereanu in our April issue (stay tuned for a preview). I’m lusting big time!
But first things first: let’s discuss Marni while we wait. The congregation was in full rapture at the church of Consuelo Castiglioni this fine Sunday morning in Milan. Castaglioni sure knows how to preach to the converted by showing yet another strong, glamorous collection that was modern and precise. Full of many of the trends that have swept Milan fashion week including forest green, block heeled mary janes, gold lurex, geometric prints, stiff leather, strict rigorous volumes, cocooning egg shapes and fur, each was featured in her very own special way. Hallelujah!
Back to Brioni, if you lust after that horn necklace from spring as I do, just wait till you see the fall iteration. More neckpiece than necklace, the statement-making double horn piece hangs from a simple gold chain. And that’s not all you’ll want from the collection designed for a second season by Allessandro Dell ‘Aqua. Brimming with well-bred style the collection was one of the most minimal and luxe collections of the week. With ultra-wearable, modern classics like double felted camel wool tunics over leg lengthening flared trousers, perfect fur jackets, overcoats, boxy cashmere rib knits and stunning embellished dresses. These are the pieces that a girl could build a serious wardrobe with. Sign me up!
