- Story Text: Milan fashion week kicked off in safari-meets-city style, determined to inject colour and daring in to a generally depressed atmosphere.
Italian designer Alviero Martini on Sunday (September 24) chose to take his show on holiday, heading for the jungle and beaches of Brazil.
"Brazil is new and fresh with its new music, its new samba. I wanted to dedicate something to this country which will have a big influence on fashion," he said after the show.
The catwalk parade opened with his and hers safari outfits with smudged brown camouflage jackets worn over a floor-length tan and black striped skirt for her and beige twill trousers tucked into knee-high boots for him.
The hard-wearing look continued with heavy brown moon boots worn under skin-tight trousers cut to the ankle or knee and asymmetrical jackets drawn tight across the shoulders. - Copyright Holder: REUTERS
