Milan FW in review

By DAILY STYLE WRITERS

Ah Milan, what some insist as

the fashion capitol of the world,
even ranking above Paris. It is
the birthplace of many high fash-
ion couture houses, which have
exuded elegance and innovation
in handmade and luxury designs.
These include famous names like
Giorgio Armani, Versace and all
the way to Gucci. Each year fashion
designers, enthusiasts and blog-
gers alike make the trek to Milano
all the way in the northern region
of beautiful Italy. While our style
writers weren’t fortunate enough
to join them, it doesn’t mean we
cannot sit in awe at the glamour
exuding from every stitch of fabric
in the collections from this year,
and review from afar.

Armani
The morning after Leonardo

DiCaprio finally claimed his first
Academy Award, the man who
dressed
“The
Revenant”
star

delivered his Fall 2016 ready-to-
wear collection in Milan. The col-
lection’s namesake quite literally
summarizes Giorgio Armani’s lat-
est creation: “Black Velvet.” In the
words of Vogue’s Nicole Phelps,
“This collection was a study in how
to make black velvet a viable option
for day[time].”

The designer took modern day

staples such as running pants, tai-
lored coats, ties, and of course, crop
tops, but went a step further and
offered a reworked version of each
in black velvet. Armani balances
the fuzzy fabric’s omnipresence on

the essentials with smaller sam-
plings on the accessories. Touches
of black velvet can be found on
the pockets of tweed blouses, the
cuffs of multicolored coats and on
oversize black bowties, making for
a chic assemblage of the fabric du
jour.

Armani’s “Black Velvet” was

au courant with the rest of Milan
fashion week, with velvet emerg-
ing as one of the biggest trends
out of the Italian fashion capital
this season. The luscious fabric
also graced the runways of Arthur
Arbesser, Roberto Cavalli, Alberta
Ferretti and Emilio Pucci. While
velvet also made a showing last
season, it seems designers are not
too eager to let go just yet. —Jordan
Stern

Blumarine
The roaring ’20s are back with

Blumarine’s latest collection. Sheer
jumpsuits, sequins and fur make a
name for themselves in this show.
Fur at the hem of longer coats, fur
necklines, fur hats — think fur
everywhere, people. Shimmering
long skirts are mesmerizing while
watching the models stroll down
the catwalk. Leopard and floral
prints are also a theme throughout
this daring collection.

The detailing is feminine and

gives us a sense of delicacy. The
pieces are so incredibly classy, in
fact, that if each of these particu-
larly clothed models were stand-
ing in a room full of fashion’s best,
everyone else in the room would
still automatically be reduced to
“trashy.”

Nothing in this show made me

step back and think wow, but as a
whole it was a very nice collection.
Feminine, old school and classy, all
of these Blumarine pieces would
be perfect to wear when attending
a Gatsby-themed party. So as soon
as I’m invited to a party of such
extravagance, I’ll be sure to turn to
this collection.

—Hannah Sparks
Gucci
It’s been one year since Ales-

sandro Michele was appointed cre-
ative director of Gucci. Though he
hasn’t had much time at the helm,
it’s as if he’s created ages worth of
work in 12 short months, already
being subject to people aping the
designs and aesthetic he’s been
crafting for Gucci in this new era.

Michele peddles an amalgama-

tion of his favorite aesthetics, trod-
ding outfits down the runway that
exude equal parts ’70s Italian sport
culture, Renaissance art and vin-
tage biker grunge. Each model and
outfit was a cohesive cultural expe-
rience on its own, featuring dia-
mante sunglasses, disco sandals,
velour hats, socks with Gucci’s loud
striped graphic, pearl and crystal
juxtaposed against colors like rain-
coat yellow and magenta. Not only
is there an eclectic combination of
styles and imagery, but Michele
seamlessly draws from each of
them to craft a beautiful smorgas-
bord of colors and looks, something
he aptly compares to “talking in
more than one language.”

Michele’s latest showing for

Gucci was a blatant assault on the
subtleties of Europe’s more estab-
lished fashion upper echelon.
Bombastic,
ostentatious,
color-

ful and loud, the experience of
Michele’s show was fairly atypi-
cal to Gucci’s quintessential calm
Italian aesthetic. He has no desire
to be “cool,” to immediately fit in
with his trendy colleagues or the
creative directors that came before
him. He has a confident, collected
approach toward fostering his loud
and frenetic style. The more free-
dom he has to explore it, the more
fortunate the fashion world will be.
—Anay Katyal

Prada
There’s good news and there’s

bad news. I’ll give you the good
news first. All of the shoes in this
show were so unique and so very
“Prada” — it was amazing. Wheth-
er it was the platform oxfords with
a chunky buckle, the heels, or the
lace up boots, all in all, the shoes
were on point. Going further, the
handbags were obviously chic AF.
Maybe it’s a personal bias, but I
always tend to be more impressed
with Prada’s bags and shoes, I
mean, what’s not to love? There-
fore, I suppose you, the reader,
could take this review with a grain
of salt.

Now for the bad news — the

clothes were tragically ugly. Per-
sonally, I was especially discour-
aged and questioned my taste once
the show ended. The crowd was
roaring with applause. I just want-
ed to yell, argyle, they’re bringing
back argyle! What really killed
me were the thick argyle tights, a
frightening flashback to my ele-
mentary school days.

I was especially put off when

the models came out wearing coin
purses around their necks. Is this a
thing in Milan? Am I behind on the
times? On another note, there was
a reoccurring theme of sailor hats;
I’m not entirely sure what the point
of them was, but it was all some-
what concerning.

Maybe it’s just me, and maybe

I’m not as fashionable as I thought,
but I was incredibly unimpressed
with this show. If I had to assign
a letter grade to this collection, it
would be a C. Sorry Prada, but you
let me down. — Hannah Sparks

‘Dog’ explores life

Laurie Anderson’s

emotional film
tackles grief.

By JOE WAGNER

Daily Arts Writer

“Heart of a Dog,” Laurie

Anderson’s 2015 film, is similar
to a traditional movie in that it
has a narrative,
moving
images

and sound, yet
it
is
somehow

different.
To

watch
“Heart

of a Dog” is a
wholly
distinct

experience from
watching
“Star

Wars,”
yet
we

call them both
movies.

Anderson weaves vignettes

that don’t quite seem related
to one another or even to the
film as a whole, yet combines
and transitions between in
them in such a brilliant way
that it’s impossible to notice
the story moving forward. But
perhaps it isn’t. The viewer
isn’t progressing through time
and through story but rather
moving cyclically, experiencing
one part of the story and then
another part but then returning
to
the
first.
Repeating,

returning, tumbling through
time.

This isn’t to say that “Heart of

a Dog” does not have a narrative.
Its narrative is compelling.

It is thought provoking. It is
beautiful. It is everything a
“movie” should be. However, it
does so in a nontraditional way.
The form of the movie mirrors
the movie thematically.

“Heart of a Dog” is a story of

death, of life, of dogs, of loved
ones, of the modern world, of
Buddhism. It is a story of human
and spiritual experience. The
film brings one through life
and loss, through death and
rebirth. Anderson uses her dog,
Lolabelle, as a guiding thread
through the movie, departing
from and returning to the life
of her dog. She ventures off to
topics as distant as 9/11 and
ranging as far as the Bardo (a
purgatory state between two
lives) of Buddhist philosophy,
but
is
constantly
exploring

and understanding death, love
and life. Anderson reads her
poetic film to the audience
like a storybook to children.
By breaking the fourth wall
and addressing the audience
directly, she creates both a filmic
reality and a meta-filmic reality.
The audience is enveloped in the
film, swallowed by the reality of
the movie while simultaneously,
at least at certain instances,
aware of the experience of
watching
Anderson’s
poem

unfold on the silver screen.
Conscious, and unconscious.
Aware and unaware.

The
imagery
is
as

outstanding as the narrative
of the movie is. Anderson
chooses images which possess

natural associations with the
narration even if they are not
strictly what she describes. She
utilizes a variety of types of art.
Anderson makes use of iPhone
footage of her dog, sketches of
her dog in the Bardo, footage of
the West Village seen through
the eyes of her dog, a painting
by Goya, footage of Northern
California and manipulations
of
still
images.
Through

breathtaking transitions, these
seemingly individual works of
art are combined into a new,
indivisible whole. Just as the
narrative is cyclical, so is the
imagery.
The
film
repeats

certain images while moving
to and fro between others.
Anderson creates interesting
composition,
whether
it
be

through manipulation of what
seems to be still photos or
through upside-down camera
angles putting the ocean at the
top of the frame and the beach
underneath. The compositions
are atypical in that there is not
a singular spot intended for the
eyes to concentrate and observe.
Rather, the compositions force
the eyes to constantly move
and study everything that lies
within the frame and think
about everything beyond the
frame.

Gliding through life, death,

and love and powered by the
human
experience,
Laurie

Anderson’s “Heart of a Dog” is
a unique film, both beautiful
and thought provoking, unlike
anything else made in 2015.

LAURIE ANDERSON

“I love you like I love my dog.”
