A weekend of fashion in Milan brought out the sunshine and, of course, the obligatory bare legs. With the mercury rising (in Europe that is), the fashion elite geared up for what will probably be another sweltering summer and flexed their gams in playful and unique skirts and dresses.

The look of the weekend definitely seemed to be quirky skirts in an array of bright colours and unusual cuts, with nary a plain A-line skirt in sight. Just take a peek at all of the high-cut front slits, origami layers, with everything from a Joe Cool mini to an ankle skimming plaid kilt. Even Carine Roitfeld’s long black pencil skirt had a playful little side slit. Miroslava Duma on the other hand, kept things chic and simple in a variety of matching pantsuits, each featuring high-waisted pleated trousers and a loosely slung jackets.

It’s no secret that the street styles of a city reflect its energy. In New York, we saw an influx of hood-inspired sportswear and in London, wardrobes took a turn for the eccentric, with quirky high-end touches giving a nod to its rich history of aristocracy and rebellion. So when the fashion jet set turned up for Milan Fashion Week Fall 2014, a city synonymous with polished-not-prissy women, we knew we were in for some refined European glamour.

On the first day of shows, the look du jour had a definite hint of ladylike elegance met with distinct masculine flavour and fun accessories. Prim jackets in a wide range of pastels matched the plethora of equally sherbet hued umbrellas, while tailored separates reigned supreme. Eva Chen shed her wacky New York duds, opting for a blush coloured cropped fur jacket with crisp tailored wide leg pants and light pink shoulder bag. Fresh of the Gucci runway, Anja Rubik wrapped herself in a loose-fitting double-breasted ivory blazer, a fur embellished skirt and a black Gucci Disco bag. If you needed any further confirmation that Milan is all about quality suiting, just take a peek at Linda Tol’s purple suit and buckled loafers—a modern take on classic Italian cues.
