Nobody Does It Better Than the Italians—6 Trends Everyone is Wearing in Milan

Attenzione! The Italian fashion capital is an endless trove of style inspiration and while we keep a close eye on what’s happening on the street there during Milan Fashion Week each February and September, the city continues to be flooded with inventive outfit combinations and the latest It buys throughout the year. Which means that ignoring what Italians are wearing there on the daily would be a serious crime.

While we could easily scroll through a street-style gallery, we went straight to the source to uncover what it is Milanesi are reaching for in real time. We chatted with the admin behind popular street style account @milanesiamilano, who are always capturing the sneaky snapshots of people all over the city. “We usually spot the best looks outside cafes and when people are having aperitivo,” and they mentioned several particular favorite areas for style spotting, including Porta Venezia, Brera, Corso Magenta Area and Cinque Vie. “Milan is one of the cities where fashion is something tangible, that you can see and touch,” they shared. “At the same time, however, it remains extremely conservative insofar as the style of the Milanese is sophisticated and without too many frills.”
