MILAN IS CALLING: COUNTDOWN TO FASHION WEEK

–

Hey guys! I’m so excited for Milan Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2026. From September 23 to 29 the whole city turns into one big runway — and for me, living in LA but completely obsessed with fashion, it’s just the best vibe.

I still remember my very first Milan Fashion Week with Alessandro Sicuro a few years ago — he made me walk all over the city center because he loves shooting street style during those days. And honestly, that’s what makes Milan unique: the streets turn into a real-life catwalk, with Fashion Week people showing off their best looks. You can just grab a coffee, sit outside and watch the style show happen right in front of you.

This year feels extra exciting. Everyone’s talking about the new creative directors making their debut — Demna at Gucci, Louise Trotter at Bottega Veneta, Simone Bellotti at Jil Sander and Dario Vitale at Versace. I’m super curious to see who will shake things up and who will keep it classic but fresh. Plus, Gucci just changed its whole board, Francesca Bellettini is now CEO, and even Kering has a new boss. Big changes mean big expectations.

American girls are crazy about European Fashion Weeks, and Milan is always a favorite. I remember how different it felt from Florence — where I spent a day at Pitti Uomo with Alessandro — so small and historic. Milan is bigger, louder, a real metropolis, but still so classy with its art, culture, and architecture. People are a bit more reserved, but honestly very stylish and super polite.

Some brands are totally killing it — Louis Vuitton, Saint Laurent, Dior — but others are having a harder time right now. Prada, Miu Miu, Ralph Lauren… they really need some fresh energy. Hopefully this season will bring some bold ideas and moments we’ll be talking about for months.

Milan Fashion Week is more than shows — it’s a feeling. The city, the people, the fashion world all breathe together for a few days. And I’m so ready to feel that energy again.
