It's a fashion for uncertain times seen these days at Milan Fashion Week. The garments presented in a Milan buried under the cloud of smog are designed to never go out of fashion.

There is, in the air, the desire for gentle fashion, an almost anachronistic term, so much so that to evoke it we have to refer to the last century. And so on every side there is a swarm of fringes and sequins, embroidery and sparkles, to light up hopefully better evenings.
