Following in the steps of the Pre-Fall collection, the Piazza Sempione Fall presentation had a stronger fashion focus; it was handled in a balanced way, but it was clearly perceptible. The new studio team did a good job updating the label’s signature style, once a go-to for exacting ladies looking for practical, well-cut, good-quality, everyday staples with a stylish twist. Piazza Sempione’s pants are still lovingly stored in the best Milanese wardrobes.
Volumes were reworked with a sleek geometric approach. They were cut in slightly oversize proportions for a modern vibe, as in a sporty, roomy parka in sumptuous double cashmere. It felt heavenly to the touch. A masculine flair was apparent in fabrics like macro Prince of Wales wool, used for tailored double-breasted coats with wide lapels and maxi practical pockets.
The Piazza Sempione trousers were updated and given a wider shape, a high waist, and an extra-long hem, morphing into a sophisticated palazzo pants version of the classic. Cut in a variety of luxurious materials—from flannel to glove leather—they made all the difference. They looked cool. No matter how many coats or pairs of pants are already stuffed in your closet, come fall, you’ll find space for one of Piazza Sempione’s covetable numbers.
