We're GaGa for Safari!

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!
