The Moschino runway collection for next fall and winter was both a celebration and a wake-up call, a mixed message underlined by the black confetti that rained down on the finale during Milan Fashion Week on Friday.
The show closed with an SOS message from the late brand founder Franco Moschino’s archives, Save our Sphere.
Grey wool dresses featured exaggerated, sculptural elements, as if wind pushed up the skirt hems and bell sleeves.
The overall tone of the collection was playful, with the brand’s engaging trompe l'oeil sleights of the eye.
Creative director Adrian Appiolaza’s sweatshirt exhorted “Don’t be silent,” during his closing bow.
