At Milan Fashion Week, Fendi, Marni and Jil Sander loosen up their house codes

At Milan Fashion Week, Fendi, Marni, and Jil Sander designers have relaxed their traditional styles for the Spring/Summer 2027 collections. Maria Grazia Chiuri, Simone Bellotti, and Meryll Rogge each took a unique approach to their respective brands.

Chiuri freed the body at Fendi, creating a sense of freedom and fluidity on the runway. Her collection featured silken slips, deeply scooped tanks, and tailored military jackets, all juxtaposed with patchwork fur coats. The show reflected Chiuri's dance floor connections and paid homage to Fendi's furrier roots, while emphasizing upcycled pieces.

Bellotti softened Jil Sander's minimalism with inventive tailoring, elongating silhouettes and incorporating pleats and built-in capes. The color palette centered on neutrals, allowing the structural elements of the garments to take center stage. Coats featured dramatic saddle flaps and elaborate tailoring techniques, showcasing Bellotti's handcrafted approach.

Rogge breathed new life into Marni's intergenerational appeal, channeling the brand's quirky heritage. Her collection included pedal pushers, mini-shifts, and short-haired goat fur coats, appealing to a diverse range of ages. Rogge embraced a gorpcore aesthetic, featuring anorak dresses and modern, easy-to-wear designs. The runway showcased Marni's commitment to blending tradition with contemporary flair.
