The world's top fashion houses paraded their autumn/winter 2015 collections on the catwalks of Milan this week, giving a flavour of what Hong Kong's luxury boutiques may have in store for us come autumn.

Gucci's gender-bending looks, Prada's black but never boring collection and a typically opulent display from Dolce & Gabbana were among the show stealers in Milan this week.

Collars, scarves and lapels were often flamboyant. Might you be wandering Central next season in a beret and printed pashmina?

Those who bemoaned the skinny fit will be happy to see jackets and blazers with a more relaxed cut, while some designers moved towards baggier, longer pants. Ankles, it would seem, are out.
