I was about to declare day one at Milan Fashion Week a yawner…
Dolce and Gabbana did cable knit onesies, fur shorts and furrier mukluks. Practical, no? DSquared did apres ski much better in recent years. So did Valentino (sigh, that chalet in the documentary!) and Chanel.
Prada usually doesn’t interest me. A nice dress silhouette or two and the rest is frumpy to my eyes. Yes, yes, I know…Miuccia revolutionized fashion… (sorry, those seats are taken in my world).
Don’t care for Cavalli.
Fendi had some interesting layering but was ho-hum for the most part.
And then, ciao amore! Krizia saved the day.
Leather jodhpurs, olive leather (or is it satin?) bondage and a fantastic balloon sleeve.

It’s a little Montana meets Amelia Earhart meets cyborg. Love.
