Milan fashion week just wrapped, and after
all this cold weather, it’s no wonder favourite collections were bright,
colourful and summery.
Max Mara brought out an incredible safari
range, with an oversized, loose silhouette coupled with sleeves rolled up often
nearly to the shoulders.
Camels, beiges and the rest of the usual desert
colour suspects were cut into blazers, pencil skirts and safari jackets- turned-
dresses, with the odd flash of a bright floral print.
The headwear and shoes reflected the
collection perfectly, with turbans a prominent accessory- a brave choice if
worn outside the runway. (I bought one last summer, and have not worn it
since…)
Safari is a card played for every spring,
and can seem to be repetitive, but is always a classic look for the warmer
months. Most of Max Mara’s show could go straight into stores too, making the
collection definitely ‘ready to wear’.
Lady Gaga rocked the Safari look on her
recent trip to South Africa and tweeted the photos to her fans.
She followed this by saying she had cut a
hole in the top of her safari hat so she could stick her pony-tail out of the
top! That’s what we like to hear- a bit of customisation!
The scarf pictured was apparently a gift
from the Princess of Monaco!
