Marni brings the best of the ’70s to Milan with a neo-retro collection that includes shoulder-defining sleeveless tops, loose fitting pants belted beneath billowing shirts, and boxy jackets.
Dolce&Gabbana provides perfect vacation loungewear through bird-patterned polos and nature-inspired separates.
Color is far from absent on the Gucci runway with bright suit separates and eye-catching flared pants rounding out its collection.
