Mood board: Andrea Pompilio has quickly proved he's the right man for the creative job at Canali. Windowpane checks, great separates and plenty of the well-built outerwear formed the base of this collection.
Best in show: The horizontal striped grey wool trouser suiting sat right on the edge between cool and classic - exactly where Canali should be. We also loved the Canali yellow - cut into cropped wool jackets.
Sound bite: 'When I first started thinking about this collection I was immediately transported to 1950s Milan,' said Pompilio. 'I envisioned an impeccably dressed man walking down the street as neon signs illuminated spirited, refined details in the clothes.'
