Milan Fashion Week is Italy's most eagerly awaited fashion event. Discover the kermis and how to experience it even if you are not an industry insider

The spotlight is on Milan: Fashion Week is just around the corner. During these magical days, the city transforms into the unconditional queen of the world fashion to host the fashion shows of the most prestigious Maisons and emerging talents. It happens twice a year for men's collections and twice a year for women's collections. In January and February, the fall/winter collections are presented, and between September and October, the spring/summer ones are. For the occasion, the brands set up their runways in the most beautiful places in the city.

But is Fashion Week 'only' this?

What is Milan Fashion Week

Milan Fashion Week

No. Milan Fashion Week is not 'just' catwalks. It is a kermis full of events, some by invitation only and others open to the public. It is a magical atmosphere of VIPs, models and models roaming the streets, luxury and elegance. It is a city tinged with new colours to promote strong values. It is the limelight of a kingdom that only follows its own rules, where nothing is excessive when it serves to carry the flag of creativity high. Today, more and more, the key themes are inclusion, uniqueness and sustainability. So beauty becomes good beauty, a powerful weapon to make our world a better place.

But how does one experience all this? How did the National Chamber for Italian Fashion and its partners devise this year's kermesse? Let's dive into this universe of spotlights where the brakes are not on.

Here is everything you need to know about this edition of Fashion Week to experience Milan like never before.

Today, Milan is one of the international Big Four of fashion, along with New York, London and Paris. But how did it all begin?

In 1951, G.B. Giorgini presented Italian haute couture collections to foreign journalists and buyers in Florence: Italian fashion had won its rightful place worldwide. Taking inspiration from these fashion shows, Milan Fashion Week was born in 1958.

In the 1970s, however, Milan became the capital of Italian fashion in all respects. Here, at the first Milanese 'prêt à porter' shows at the Fiera di Milano, the protagonists of the catwalks were the collections of the big names we all know today. These included historic Milanese brands such as, among the pioneers, Walter Albini, Krizia and Missoni, joined in later years by Giorgio Armani, Versace, Dolce & Gabbana and Gianfranco Ferré. And then again, Florentine Maisons such as Gucci, Roberto Cavalli, Emilio Pucci and Ermanno Scervino.

The must-visit Milan fashion venues

Vittorio Emanuele II Gallery, Milan

As we have said, Milan Fashion Week is more than just catwalks. It is a magical atmosphere, a spirit that invades the city and 'beats strongly', especially in certain symbolic places. So the first way to experience Milan Fashion Week is to visit these 'temples of fashion'.

In Milan, there is a fabulous place called the Quadrilatero della Moda (the Fashion Quadrilateral). It is the luxury shopping district and is bordered by Via Montenapoleone, Via Manzoni, Via della Spiga and Corso Venezia. It includes elegant streets such as Via Santo Spirito, Via Gesù, Via Sant'Andrea, Via Bagutta and Via Borgospesso. Shopping addicts come here from all over the world to shop in showrooms and boutiques. Simply strolling around and admiring the shop windows resembles a mystical experience. Even the nearby Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, with its extraordinary architectural beauty, is a shopping arcade with venues and shops to take your breath away!

The Quadrilatero della Moda, however, is also a place to breathe in the city's history through cultural experiences such as visiting museums. Museo Bagatti Valsecchi, located in Via Gesù, is a house museum inspired by 16th-century Lombard houses. Palazzo Morando, in Via Sant'Andrea, is home to the Milan City Council's Fashion and Costume Museum.

Unfortunately, the MFW shows are an exclusive event, forbidden fruit reserved for industry insiders, VIPs, and wealthy clients or only accessible by invitation. Thus, influencers, fashion bloggers, pop stars, top models, journalists, or specialised photographers can attend the shows. But don't worry: there are solutions to this too.

A big screen at a strategic point in the city will allow us to watch fashion shows, but let's remember the online channels. On the milanofashionweek.cameramoda.it platform, the National Chamber for Italian Fashion offers users the opportunity to follow the digital and live streaming of fashion shows, but that's not all. There is also a section dedicated to multi-brand and single-brand virtual showrooms.
The shows will also be on the YouTube Fashion Channel after the event. The contribution of the Social Networks could be included, from the Camera della Moda Instagram profile to TikTok, Twitter and Facebook. As for mainland China and Japan, the week's events will be visible thanks to Tencent Video and Asahi Shimbun, respectively.

But what if I told you there are also ways to watch the shows in person? Yes, you can hear the sound of heels treading the catwalks, the scent of luxury in the air, and the spotlight's warmth on your skin. The Maisons themselves, in some cases, auction off tickets and then donate the proceeds to charity. On portals such as CharityStars you can try to grab tickets to the shows, backstage access, passes to the most exclusive after-parties and much more. Beware, though: tickets go fast!

Alternatively, after everyone who has a ticket and is on the list has entered, it can happen that the location is not complete. In these cases, a few lucky people may be admitted to the events. So the only thing you can do is get to the venue and arm yourself with a lot of patience.

Moreover, recently, some brands have decided to open their fashion shows and backstage to some lucky fans... Curious to know who they are? We'll tell you in the section on what's new in each edition of Fashion Week.

Milan Fashion Week 2024: what's new this year

Piazza Duomo, Milan

In the following paragraphs, you will find details of all the fashion weeks in Milan in 2024. Follow us to stay up-to-date!

What's new at Milano Moda Uomo Fall/Winter 2024/2025: 12-16 January 2024

This Fashion Week includes a schedule of 74 appointments: 22 physical and 5 digital fashion shows, 32 presentations, 7 by appointment and 8 events.
Here is how Carlo Capasa, President of the National Chamber for Italian Fashion, talks about the upcoming event: "Creativity, innovation, quality, and sustainability are the main levers for the continuous development of the Italian fashion system. The Fashion Week calendar we are presenting today is full of appointments demonstrating Italy's leadership in men's fashion"

The bond between Milan and fashion is profound, celebrated, and highlighted in the promotional campaign for January's fashion week and in the words of the Councillor for Economic Development with responsibility for Fashion and Design Alessia Cappello. 

The campaign, realised by CNMI, the Municipality of Milan and Yes Milano, will appear on the city streets from 8 to 16 January. The location chosen for the shots is one of the iconic places of Milanese daily life: the underground, particularly the Missori stop of the M3. The four models wear the looks of the brands Mordecai, Gams Note, MTL Studio and ViaPiave33. Ph: Carmine Romano, styling by Roberta Astarita.

As Alessia Cappello stated, Fashion Week in Milan is a pivotal event for the city's international reputation, and fashion represents one of the most essential pillars of Milan's economic growth. The kermesse is an opportunity to "showcase the creativity and style of the most prestigious fashion houses and emerging designers, but also an occasion to promote the extraordinary Italian craftsmanship, a symbol of tradition and at the same time increasingly oriented towards innovation and environmental and social responsibility. Values in harmony with Milan's identity and its commitment to the future"

As every year, there is fervent anticipation for debuts, confirmations and great returns.
Here are some representatives of the new generation: Domenico Orefice, Institution By Galib Gassanoff, LaTorre, Mordecai by Ludovico Bruno, Noskra, Rubeus Milano, Stuart Weitzman with its first presentation of a men's line, ViaPiave33, Woolrich Black Label By Todd Snyder, Stone Island, which is planning something "more than just a fashion show", and Pronounce.
Among the "sacred monsters" that will return to tread the Milanese catwalks, there is great expectation for Fendi, JW Anderson and Gucci, which will open the kermesse with the man designed by creative director Sabato De Sarno. Presentations include C.P. Company, Church's, and Philippe Model Paris, with Tuomas Merikoski as its new creative director.

What's new at Milano Moda Donna Fall/Winter 2024/2025: 20-26 Febbruary 2024

During this Fashion Week, womenswear is back in the limelight with 56 physical fashion shows (of which 2 doubles), 5 digital shows, 74 presentations including 7 by appointment and 26 events, making 161 appointments. These also include art installations, exclusive parties, special initiatives and unmissable side events such as exhibitions and conferences. All spread over (just) 6 days. Estimates predict 100,000 visitors, and Milan is ready to create the unique magic of its fashion week once again. 

Here are the words of Carlo Capasa, President of the National Chamber for Italian Fashion: "Italian fashion is doing very well in Italy and abroad, with 60/70% of the world's luxury goods produced right in the Peninsula".

The Milan Malpensa Airport was chosen as the location for the event's promotional campaign - realised by CNMI, the Municipality of Milan and Yes Milano -. The models wear clothes by Alabama Muse, Andreādamo, Inan Studio, Maison Nencioni, Marco Rambaldi, Des Phemmes, Francesco Murano, SSheena, So-Le Studio and Bea Bongiasca. Ph: Antonio Dicorato; styling: Francesca Cefis Casoli.

There is fervent anticipation for three important debuts: Adrian Appiolaza at the helm of Moschino, Tod's with its new creative director Matteo Tamburini, and Walter Chiapponi's Blumarine (formerly Tod's).
There will also be the big names that have written the history of Italian fashion, such as King Giorgio Armani, Prada, Dolce&Gabbana, Versace and Fendi. Absent, on the other hand, will be young brands that have gained an important role in the Milanese scene in recent seasons, including Cormio, Andreadamo and Act N°1. On the contrary, Marni (after a global tour) and Elisabetta Franchi will return to tread the Milanese catwalks; the Ethiopian-born London designer Feben will also be present with the support of Dolce&Gabbana.

More goosebump news: backstage at a fashion show is your dream? For the third time, Glenn Martens and his Diesel will give students and fans the opportunity to attend the fashion show and backstage. How is this possible? By registering online on the brand's website from noon on 13 February. The lucky winners of the 1000 e-tickets available will experience the adrenaline rush of the days leading up to the show from 18 to 20 February. Live streaming on the Diesel platforms will broadcast the fashion show's styling, casting, atelier, and setup.

Philosophy by Lorenzo Serafini has also decided to open its fashion show on Friday, 23 February, to its most loyal and creative fans. There are five tickets up for grabs to be won in two ways: the first will reward the best comment under a post on the brand's Instagram profile, and the other is a lottery to be entered by filling in a form that will appear on Instagram or Facebook to the brand's most assiduous followers.

What's new at Milano Moda Uomo Spring/Summer 2025: 14-18 June 2024

The event will be staged in Milan with 84 appointments, including 24 physical and digital fashion shows, 52 presentations and 8 events. Carlo Capasa, President of Camera Nazionale della Moda Italiana, has described its calendar as 'record-breaking'. His words are: 'The richness and variety of the appointments on the calendar, the new presences of international brands, including the collaboration with the Copenhagen International Fashion Fair, confirm the vitality and attractiveness of Milan Fashion Week. Special thanks go to all the operators in the system who, with passion and determination, have contributed to making Milan a platform capable of providing visions, opportunities, facilities, and services and of welcoming the many expected guests. Creativity, Made in Italy, heritage and innovation, and sustainability are the values that distinguish the work of so many people, and MFW represents their crowning achievement'.

The location chosen for the campaign is the prestigious Bocconi University, one of the city's symbolic places. Produced by CNMI, the Milan City Council and Yes Milano, with photos by Eugenio Intini and styling by Giulia Meterangelis, it will appear from 7 to 18 June on maxi-screens and billboards of the Milan City Council.

Now, let us look at Kermesse's calendar: numerous debuts, great returns, and the participation of many international brands in the programme.

The dances will open on Friday, June 14, at 4 p.m., with Moschino's fashion show celebrating the debut of Adrian Appiolaza, the new art director of the men's line.

This MFW reconfirms the presence of the faithful Dsquared2, Prada, Fendi, and Dolce&Gabbana; JW Anderson will also be back with a fashion show and event not to be missed; and Magliano, who, last season, decided to show at Pitti Uomo.

The about-to-be-began Fashion Week will also mark anniversaries, such as Canali's, which is planning a special event to celebrate 90 years since the brand's founding, and MSGM's, which, for its 15 candles, will stage a co-ed fashion show.

Debuts include Martin Rose and Dunhill, both British designer brands whose collections will be shown on June 16. There are also great expectations for Ascend Beyond, Cortigiani and David Koma.

The kermesse's last day of live shows, the catwalks will be graced by the creations of three sacred monsters: Giorgio Armani, Gucci, and ZEGNA.

As we can read in Carlo Capasa's words, another essential novelty of this edition is the collaboration with the CIFF (Copenhagen International Fashion Fair). Thanks to it, a static exhibition will come to life inside Palazzo Giureconsulti, where a selection of Scandinavian designers will exhibit their creations. These include Henrik Vibskov, Mark Kenly Domino Tan, Envelope 1976, Aiayu, Adnym, Isnurh and Les Deux.

What's new at Milano Moda Donna Spring/Summer 2025: 17-23 September 2024

The MFW edition dedicated to women’s collections for Spring Summer 2025 will be staged from 17 to 23 September with a calendar that, this time, will start a day earlier to dedicate Sunday to emerging designers. Over these seven days, 173 appointments are scheduled, including 57 physical and 8 digital fashion shows, 69 presentations, 6 presentations by appointment and 33 events

Carlo Capasa, President of Camera Nazionale della Moda Italiana, emphasised the need for the kermesse to gain an extra day a year ago. After lengthy negotiations, the objective was achieved. Capasa said: ‘I am delighted with the work carried out with great synergy between the four main fashion players. This agreement with the other associations allows Milan to have an extra day for the fashion shows, in line with the needs of our brands and the fashion community, which had long been requesting an extension of Milan Fashion Week because of its more than 200 appointments on the calendar. I would like to thank the BFC, the Cfda and the Fhcm for the sensitivity shown in drawing up the calendars and the Fendi maison, which will kick off Fashion Week for the September 2024 edition with its first fashion show on Tuesday, 17 September’.

The communication campaign for this edition was shot in the spaces of the Brera Academy of Fine Arts. It will carry the creations of Francesco Murano, Lorenzo Seghezzi, Aandreādamo, Marco Rambaldi, Defaïence by Nicola Bacchilega and Oh Carla on maxi-screens and billboards in the streets of the city. Photos by Alice Rosati, styling by Marzia Fossati. 

Among big names, comebacks and debuts, let's discover the protagonists of this MFW. 

Fendi - which in 2025 will reach the 100th anniversary of its foundation - will have the honour of opening the dances on Tuesday 17th. On the same day, Marni, Alberta Ferretti and Iceberg will also be on the catwalk. Iceberg will celebrate its 50th anniversary with a co-ed fashion show followed by a party retracing the most important moments in the brand's history. 

Let us now discover the ‘holy monsters’ that will return to tread the Milanese catwalks for this edition: to name a few, Gucci, Prada, EtroVersace, Bottega Veneta, Dolce&GabbanaDiesel, Missoni and Ferragamo. And then again, Laura Biagiotti, on the fiftieth anniversary of the brand’s first fashion show, and The Attico

The Giorgio Armani collection is the big absentee. In contrast, the Emporio Armani collection will tread the catwalks on Thursday 19 at 8 pm. Also missing from the catwalk calendar are MSGM, Blumarine - which awaits the start of David Koma’s new creative direction - and Tom Ford - which sees creative director Peter Hawkings leave the Maison after less than a year. 

The time has come to talk about debuts. There is great expectation for Federico Cina’s women’s collection and Phan Dang Hoang. Virtual shows include Defaïence by Nicola Bacchilega, Francesco Murano, Jacob Cohën, Rè Shui and Viapiave33

Sunday 22, the much-desired ‘Day More’, will be dedicated to emerging brands: to open the day, we will see the Chinese designer Susan Fang supported by Dolce&Gabbana. At the same time, Chiccomao will close the Kermesse’s live fashion shows at 5 pm. Afterwards, in the traditional setting of the Teatro alla Scala, the focus will shift to a new edition of the Cnmi Sustainable Fashion Awards.
