Initial reaction:
World travellers wrapped up in layers of patterned treasures gathered from solo journeys around the globe.
Bohemian boys:
Milan so far this week has been big on casting men in the role of the bohemian artist with an appetite for wanderlust. Missoni was no exception – their romantic adventurers sauntered across a runway covered in haphazardly layered Persian rugs, the kind you’d imagine would cover the floor of a writer’s loft or artist’s studio, brought back from beneath the blazing sun in a dusty market somewhere. Rich texture wasn’t just to be found in the showspace; opulent knits were layered with shirts and jackets, and as the hashtag on the invite declared: #inrustwetrust – earthy tones dominated in the colour stakes.
How it was worn:
With oversized scarves in patterned check and Missoni’s signature zig zag draped around shoulders – if this season Angela Missoni was inspired by the idea of a traveller making their way across Russia to China, this is the kind of accessory that would swathe them as they caught a few Zs in the corner of a creaking train carriage.
