Milan Men’s Fashion Week: Machine Gun Kelly headlined Dolce & Gabbana’s menswear autumn/winter 2022 show as his fiancée Megan Fox admired the models from the front row
- Although events were reduced as the Omicron variant spread through Italy, several luxury brands still managed to do live shows – unlike 2021’s digital-only fashion week
- The maison showed off statement-making puffer jackets that made the Michelin man look slim, a tall blue Marge Simpson-esque knit cap, and eco-fur and sequins
Kelly headlined, making at least three wardrobe changes during the runway show, and handing his jacket to Fox in the front row before performing at the close of the show. The rapper is known for his flamboyant dressing, and no doubt found much to shop for on the runway.
Dolce & Gabbana’s puffer coats and matching trousers make the Michelin man look slim, in bubblegum pink or scrawled with the season’s graffiti print. Warmth was so guaranteed that at least one model wore just branded briefs. As a cold weather alternative, there were abominable snowman-worthy shaggy eco-furs with matching boots and earmuffs.
The jackets of the season have exaggerated shoulders, paired with leggings and worn with visor glasses and moulded trainers. A silver sequinned suit was stage-worthy, with skinny eyeglass frames perched on the nose in a way more suggestive of sci-fi lasers than reading glasses. A bold graffiti-emblazoned streetwear ensemble was finished with a tall knit cap in blue that gave a Marge Simpson vibe.
