Fashion has gone to the dogs – look to Joseph Turvey's 101 Dalmatians and Agi & Sam's basset hound guest model during the London showings of last week. Milan offered another candidate to the cause, with Italian greyhounds, the Trussardi house mascot, hanging out on the leaf-strewn outdoors-indoors catwalk.

A more relaxed, countrified, affair than his previous few seasons, designer Umit Benan took a break from the city-living, dapper dude the collection is synonymous with to offer a more pragmatic collection of coats, macs and upscale weekend away wear – ripe for walking those noble greyhounds.
