From dramatic weather, to interactive shows, and some of the biggest names in fashion taking over the runways, Milan Fashion Week September 2023 was certainly eventful. Let’s dive into some of our favorite highlights from the event.
Rain or shine, the show must go on - at least in the case of Milan Fashion Week. Milan experienced plenty of rain throughout the event, which brought about some unexpected changes, including the Gucci show changing venues. However, this certainly didn’t stop them from putting on an eventful show.
For anyone who is unfamiliar with Milan Fashion Week, it’s a bi-annual series of events held in February and September each year to showcase upcoming fashion trends and esteemed designers’ creations from around the world. It is also part of Fashion Month, in which Fashion Weeks also take place in New York City, London, and Paris, making up the four major fashion capitals of the world. London Fashion Week just ended on September 19, and Milan picked up where London left off, from September 19 - 25.
From Versace, to Gucci, Prada, Fendi, and more, some of the biggest names in fashion participated in the shows this season. Versace missed last February’s fashion week, so returning to Milan for this season’s shows was a significant event. Some of the fashion trends featured by Versace included checkerboard patterns and bright colors in a variety of pieces.

The streets of Milan were also quite eventful, considering some of the shows even used them as their runways. The Attico took over a residential street in a western Milan neighborhood to host its runway debut. Some of the trends featured at the show included sheers, sequins, cargo pants and a variety of oversized pieces.
Other designers made their shows unique by incorporating interactive elements, theatrical elements and more. The event certainly didn’t fall short on entertainment.
Last but not least, here are several of our favorite petite celebrity outfits at this year’s Milan Fashion Week:
