The spotlight is on Milan Fashion Week dedicated to men's collections Autumn / Winter 2025-2026, which takes place from 17 to 20 January. The city, with its iconic Vertical Forest and the design districts, is preparing to host over 70 appointments between fashion shows, presentations and exclusive events, with a digital queue on January 21st for four online fashion shows.
A calendar of new developments and emerging excellences
The show sees the debut on the catwalk of brands such as Pierre-Louis Mascia, which, after its debut in Florence last June, brings its creative vision to the Lombard capital. Among the other names at their first Milanese fashion show we find pdfThe project Domenico Formichetti, already known in the emerging panorama, and Saul Nash, a British brand that has chosen to transfer its aesthetic from iconic London to Milan.
Even consolidated signatures such as Philipp Plein e To pronounce, the Sino-Italian duo formed by the designers Yushan Li e Jun Zhou, which intertwine Western elegance with Eastern references.
However, the absence of major fashion houses marks this edition: brands such as Gucci, FENDI, Moschino, Dsquared 2 e JW Anderson do not appear in the calendar, preferring the co-ed formula during the women's shows. Among the other missing names we find Versace, Bottega Veneta, Etro, Ferragamo, Antonio Marras, Marni e Jil Sander. This phenomenon highlights a change of strategy in the sector, with a growing trend towards unified male-female presentations.
