Milan Fashion Week always involves shoes.
When Anna Piaggi passed away in 2012 at 81, fashion journalism lost an original. The Italian born writer left a mark with her conspicuous runway front row style.
Friends with Lagerfeld, Blahnik and others, Piaggi was a style giant with hats and dyed hair.
During the Lineappelle, the trade fair held an exhibition dedicated to flamboyant Milanese duds chronicler.
From Florence Italy during Pitti Uomo, this spontaneous podcast happened while walking to another appointment. I met Felipe Fiallo while the Italian shoe designer was discussing his collection.
I grabbed a tablet, then asked him to go over his footwear designs.
Coming soon, Up To You Anthology is a handbag brand with an ethos based on design.
I met Sohee Park in 2022 during her presentation supported by Dolce&Gabbana. The London based designer impressed with a collection that was both stunning and assured. Now in 2025, the Korean born creative head is presented collections in Paris for Couture Week. GOOD JOB!
Paris Fashion Week Couture continues.

At Pitti Uomo, the words new technique are applied to the Japanese textile houses and brands. The final feel of the pieces shown in Florence is a bolt of blue. The JQ exhibit in the center building is always fascinating because of the way the fabrics feel: light and fine. The same question: How? The way the producers handle cashmere and silk should motivate designers to study the material process in Japan. Why these shirts and suits are not sold in major stores in the West is a mystery.
