New mood, nouveau normcore?

Ridiculously simple, surprisingly effective.

Wearable clothes emerged as the biggest trend at Milan fashion week. Swathes of grey, inspiration from ‘normal people’ and lightweight wool tailoring saw a normally brazen fashion week redefined as ‘wearable’ with real-life relatability.

Quiet clothing has always been the superstar of a well curated wardrobe. Get the basics right and the edgier, trend-led pieces will fit in seamlessly. The hero at Prada? A ubiquitous grey knit.

Origami white skirts with new Prada low-heeled sling backs ( the perfect bridal shoe in my opinion) appeared nonchalant when paired with the classic grey knit. It reminded me in the late 2010’s when Jenna Lyon debuted a cream cashmere jumper (from J Crew, obviously) with a feathered skirt at the Met Ball - truly the definition of effortless chic and spearheading the rise of normcore on the red carpet.
