MSGM A/W 2017

Mood board: Like all good inspiration boards, Massimo Giorgetti's was a stark study in great looking contrasts. On one hand you had radical snowboarders and their daredevil moves, and on the other you had elegant equestrians and Queen Elizabeth smiling under her printed silk scarf. The latter segment gave this sporty show the perfect dose of preppyness, including models wearing quilted riding jackets, with their heads wrapped just like her majesty, in a lovely printed silk scarf.

Best in show: This was a terrific outing from Giorgetti, packed with easy to wear basics, like a pair of white quilted track pants and luxurious ribbed camel long johns. We loved the navy corduroy track pant with checkerboard trim, as well as the sleek matte green puffer jackets boasting black and white oversized inserts.

Finishing touches: The preppy look came on fast, furiously and fabulously with flood jeans worn cropped to the ankle. and styled with white ankle socks and loafers. That oh so fifties moment blended unusually with headscarves, and sporty baseball cap and headbands. These athletic accessories were topped off with sweaters created in collaboration with Diadora.
