WAVE LENGTH
Designed to evoke the blooming first stages of romance, eclectic fusions of colour and texture defined Missoni's womenswear collection, such as this wool overcoat, featuring waves of 3D knit.
ON POINT
Prada's co-creative directors Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons noted a desire to oppose simplicity with moments of 'comfort and exaggeration' as epitomised in a series of precisely tailored jackets for men, out of which fuzzy winged collars emerged.
RISING STAR
Maximilian Davis' second season as Ferragamo's creative director saw him continue to hone the Florentine house's shoe offering with this mock-croc riff on the Mary Jane, drawing inspiration from old Hollywood starlets but with a contemporary bent.
UNDER THE BELT
Max Mara's creative director Ian Griffiths looked to 18th-century philosopher Émilie du Châtelet, whose liberated take on the era's dress codes inspired cocooning opera coats and leather obi belts, cut with the modernity synonymous with the house.
HAIR LINE
Inspired by Jackie Onassis' reclusive cousin Little Edie, immortalised in the 1975 documentary Grey Gardens, Victoria Beckham's eccentric collection featured surreal necklaces recalling human hair, a nod to the work of Brazilian artist Solange Pessoa.
