of rigid lines that contrast with soft lines that reshape the body, even using ornamental decorations. Alfredo Cortes, creative director of AC9 brand, decided to present a collection that represents the first emotions he felt when he arrived in Milan in March 2010. Its garments are characterized by a particular versatility that allows them to be worn on different occasions and in different periods of the year. Cormio and Vitelli two knitwear brands, Alessandro Vigilante who reworks the leotards of the dance world to transform them into tops or dresses. Marco Rambaldi, one of the most acclaimed new generation designers on the Italian scene, brought on the Milanese catwalks knitted dresses that are modelled on more physicality. Among the most influential designers we cannot fail to mention the stylist Salvo Rizza, mind and founder of the Des Phemmes maison, who presented apparently bon ton style garments, as well as Francesco Murano and Andrea Adamo. In recent years, we can say that many designers have wanted to go beyond the creation of clothes, venturing into the creation of “works” to be worn with recycled fabrics and sustainable materials, in the name of greenery and ecology. An example is the consortium founded in 1985 which brings together seven Tuscan leather goods companies: Cuoio di Toscana, a brand that has been dedicated to this delicate topic for a long time. Cuoio (hide leather), the Consortium explain to us, is a super green material, derived from leftovers and tanned with vegetable products. The Cuoio di Toscana brand appeared at the Milan Fashion Week supported by the Italian singer Noemi, who after participating in the Sanremo Festival edition 2022, as a guest and testimonial of the brand sang at the Grand Hotel et de Milan, in the presence of many “ big “, like Carlo Capasa, brother of the stylist and designer Ennio Capasa. Fashion week ended on 8 March with the last stage in Paris, held in “hybrid” mode, with some stylists in attendance and others digitally. Attended haute couture brands such as: Louis Vuitton, Hermes, Chanel, Christian Dior and many others. With the hope that the next fashion tour will resume with the first show in New York in a totally in person mode and without wars, we close with the words that Coco Chanel would say if she were among us: “To be irreplaceable you must always be different” and this 2022 edition proved it to us.
