The Clothes: Leopard, floral, lace, porcelain-inspired print: It’s no secret that Just Cavalli’s ethos is of the ‘more is more’ variety. The first looks that came onto the runway were intrinsic to the brand: Mini skirts with panels of leopard and floral, roomy leopard bermuda shorts (which I was actually really feeling) paired with a Read more →
Let’s get one thing clear: Heritage is the name of the game this season in Milan.
