Milano Fashion Week 2011

I have just returned from my first trip to Milan, Italy and let me tell you, it was fabulous. The people, style, culture and history was all crammed into a short two day trip for myself and three other travelers. It was the perfect timing with it being Fashion week so the moda in town was extra fab. We had the opportunity to watch Frankie Morello's fall/winter of 2011/2012. It was worth standing in a cold rain because his collection was amazing. Here are some of my favorites from the collection. What I loved most about his collection was his use of a classic silhouette - whether it was a chic uniform style or a subtle mermaid gown. Fashion shows these days are becoming so over the top and that's supposed to make it memorable but Morello didn't have to use any stunts, his clothing spoke for itself.





Milan is so beautiful. Someday I hope to return and be able to stay a little longer than 2 days.
