Welcome to Milan!
Stefano Pilati has been away from YSL for quite some time, since ' Stefano is moving to Ermenegildo Zegna.' this new came out, I feel that the show always being more important (or practical) than the design itself. But do not get me wrong, I am not saying that Stefano is not a good designer, even though I still cannot accept the style that he used to set for YSL.
Forget about the past, let's talk about his debut for Zegna; the opening show for Milan Mens Fashion Week this year. Personally, I like the breathable fabrics that he using for this collection. I could even feel the wind just like the models was walking in front of me. Colour wise, a bit dull, it is not hard to spot his 'heritage' which he'd used 33 colours in his clothes, in fact, it is his significant.
'DOES NOT MATCH, MAN!'
The suits that followed were broken--jackets and trousers not matched, reflecting Stefano's conviction that a man whose closet is filled with suits is not about to wear them as convention dictates.
A number of models had long-sleeve T-shirts rolled back on the cuffs of their coats and jackets. It was a street-y flourish for a collection.
BASICS ARE NOT THAT BASIC ANY MORE
Good designers know how to use proportions and contrasts to give us the visual excitement, even they are working with basic stuff. Stefano Pilati is one of them.
So stop saying that 'oh! The new definition of luxury fashion!' Do NOT use such words to describe any evolutions. This is NOT luxury, this is FASHION.
