Milan Fashion Week Spring 2014: Alberta Ferretti
Alberta Ferretti's ultra feminine spring 2014 creations were inspired by Southern Italy and South America. Strong folkloric influences were present all through the collection in various degrees. Floral prints for spring are not exactly a surprise, however in the designer's skilled hands, the motif was the starting point of some truly breath-taking creations.
She wanted her new designs to radiate positive energy and achieved her goal by using a myriad of of intricate floral and abstract motifs and several bold, lively tones: red, orange, deep blue, fuchsia, grass green. If the daywear alternatives had a romantic, almost innocent allure, eveningwear was all about sexiness and feminine elegance.

Milan Fashion Week Spring 2014: Dsquared²
Summer's all about fun! Designers Dean and Dan Caten emphasized the idea like none others bringing real sand and tiki bar atmosphere at their show. The first looks of the show set a cheerful, permanent vacation-like mood, however the new line was about much more than a few beach-ready ensembles, though the multitude of lampshade hats, cat-eye glasses and swimsuits might have made one to believe otherwise. The label brought a series of elegant pieces inspired by the voluptuous beauties of the '50s: ladylike puffy frocks, sophisticated summer coats or chic bustier style dresses. Fashionistas who love refined looks with a playful vibe will definitely find plenty of inspiration in the label's newest line.
