Salvatore Ferragamo Menswear Catwalk Fashion Show Milan SS2016

Ferragamo’s designer Massimiliano Giornetti mixed the city street and the tropical outdoors in a collection that seemed young for a brand that’s been in business for nearly 90 years.

Working against a backdrop of palms and tropical greens the creative director sent out models in baseball caps wearing sports-inspired riffs on the traditional suit. Baseball style and other abbreviated jackets were done in pinstripes — some with contrast piping — and were paired with roomy, pleated trousers. More traditional suits were worn over T-shirts, or layered over sweaters accessorized with colorful skinny ties. Colors were of the earth — plum, ochre, cocoa, turquoise and palm leaf green — and came in blocks or stripes on everything from knits to outerwear. Baseball and leather jackets were adorned with cactus and monkey designs on the back — Fifties greaser style — while one sweater was paved with varsity letter patches, in keeping with the youthful spin.

Sport inspiration is everywhere in Milan this season, even at a classic house like Salvatore Ferragamo.
Creative director Massimiliano Giornetti used mustard, burnt orange, light blue, tomato and olive for his ummer suits worn with white shorts, or trousers and jackets in a texture cotton. He took the numbers 1, 2 and 4, inflated them, and placed them on stiff cotton sleeveless shirts and tunic tops, tanks, and knits.
There was a quilting motif too, for white leather jackets, and as a pattern on short plastic coats or cotton shirts. For outerwear, Giornetti played with volume.

Salvatore Ferragamo today appeared to be an almost completely navy blue collection. Yet there were more shades to discover in the New York by night lit runway (Ferragamo is always a treat colorwise) like grape, midnight blue, English violet, dark cyan and, naturally, black. Models were well dressed and streetwise sporting cool, winter proof designs. Like perfectly tailored pants, chunky sweaters and woolen coats with extraordinary collars that had leather linings. We can not come up with any weather condition the Ferragamo man is not prepared for come fall. Let’s just hope winter won’t be too soft, so our men can actually wear those amazing textured designs.

You don’t have to tell designer Massimiliano Giornetti anything about power dressing, he knows what he is doing at Ferragamo. The fall-collection was powerful in all it’s classic, elegant tailoring:  suits and coats were strong and sharp, the ingredients soft and often velvet-like. Tweeds, bold herringbone  and speckled wools for outerwear, with colored velvet and moiré silks for evening jackets. Footwear stood out, especially the two toned dress shoes.
The colors were a mix of rusts and berry tones often mixing together different shades on looks through to the accessories.

At Salvatore Ferragamo the seventies played a part in styling, from the big coats and bohemian layers ’till the turtlenecks and suede shirts with laced up closures. The Doors’ Riders on the Storm and Lou Reed were on the soundtrack and added that extra atmosphere to the presentation.

Color also played a major part in this collection and ran from off white and beige to red, bordeaux, blue and petrol. Different textures were mixed, and hats (the accessory of this season) and big scarves were added. The overall silhouette was fitted, with slim jackets, straight pants, simple knits and suede shirts.
