Daniele Alessandrini Spring 2012 | Milan Fashion Week

Mood­scape–Daniele Alessan­drini approaches the spring 2012 sea­son with a clear mind focused on ener­giz­ing con­tem­po­rary menswear with the joy­ous use of color and spo­radic prints. Color block­ing and set­ting com­ple­men­tary tones to the same beat, a lineup of suit­ing sep­a­rates, knits and trousers ben­e­fit from an upbeat spirit. Adorned with stripes, flo­ral prints and stars, the col­lec­tion exudes a boy­ish qual­ity for a fun spring that also man­ages to be practical.

Moschino Spring 2012 | Milan Fashion Week

Greaser Milanese–While it is appar­ent the design­ers behind Moschino were inspired by the Elvis and Fonzie-​​type char­ac­ters of the fifties, there were sev­eral ambigu­ous ele­ments at play that gave the col­lec­tion a mod­ern appeal. Two jack­ets, one in baby blue suede and the other in black leather, mir­rored the time­less jean jacket of the same era. On the other hand, the quin­tes­sen­tial Moschino shirt fueled spring’s col­lec­tion with play­ing card motifs. Another stand­out ele­ment was none other than the printed trouser, a trend that has been strong this sea­son, seen here both casu­ally and in sar­to­r­ial splen­dor – which is where the gar­ments really shine. Round­ing out a charm­ing show, suits were dressed in gold and adorned with flash­ing lights, mak­ing for a show­stop­per of looks des­tined for stars, no mat­ter how large or small.

Dsquared² Spring 2012 | Milan Fashion Week

The Boys Are Back–Fol­low­ing a coy fall sea­son, Dan and Dean Caten of Dsquared² return to the cat­walk with swimwear and other goods on dis­play. Ready for sun and bronzed sta­tus, the boys of Dsquared² boast an eclec­tic style that makes for both for­mal and naughty for­ays. On one end of the spec­trum, the Catens offer tai­lored dou­ble breasted jack­ets, cou­pled with tapered trousers, while on the other side, a rebel­lious youth is made vis­i­ble. From a won­der­ful denim and leather jacket to a tiger motif, the col­lec­tion finds its stride in a fash­ion­able vehi­cle that does take itself too seri­ously and in that the joy comes to the sur­face for a fan­tas­tic spring season.

Giorgio Armani Spring 2012 | Milan Fashion Week

Armani Means Busi­ness–Focus was at the core of Gior­gio Armani’s show­ing for the spring 2012 sea­son. Set­ting the stage for one uni­form, suit­ing was dis­sected for a wardrobe of var­ied pro­por­tions. From fit­ted jack­ets and dropped crotch lines to bil­low­ing sil­hou­ettes, the Armani man was afforded a relaxed pac­ing. Pair­ing down light silk, linen and wool with casual sneak­ers, the col­lec­tion also embraced a graphic nature, grounded in navy and black. Dress­ing a com­fort­able spring lineup in gra­di­ents, stripes, checks and other eye catch­ing prints, Gior­gio Armani achieved a sophis­ti­cated feat.
