Wild is certainly a good word to describe what is happening on the runways at Milan this week. With men’s fashion week in full swing in Milan, Monday, January 18 saw autumn/winter 2016-2017 shows from Emporio Armani, Gucci, Etro and Fendi. Most of the collections had a romantic, almost fanciful feel, but a handful of others – such as Ermanno Scervino – kept things decidedly more masculine. Gucci stood out from the crowd with colorful pieces in pink, red and yellow. Overall, the looks are relaxed – loose even – and seem to represent the inevitable triumph of pajamas over formal wear.

Showcased in all-red surroundings, Gucci’s AW16-17 man rocked a retro and romantic style. Nature was a key trend in the collection, cropping up in details such as flower prints and birds. Gucci was big on color too, using lots of pink, yellow and red. AFP Photo
Etro also channeled the romantic, with a free and easy feel to the AW16-17 show. The collection featured lots of very high rollnecks, as well as premium fabrics like cashmire and tweed. AFP Photo

With shades of gray, black and white, Ermanno Scervino put color aside for its AW16-17 collection. The show featured lots of extra-long scarves, plus sweaters bearing single words, like “Wild” or “Heroes.” AFP Photo
With impeccably tailored trousers, Ermanno Scervino stuck with a more masculine look than many of the collections seen in Milan this season.
