The worlds of music, fashion and art continues their long collaboration on the menswear runways of Milan Fashion Week running until today. Missoni creative director Angela Missoni says collaborations between the art world and fashion, which her father pioneered decades ago, have become ever more natural. There are fewer taboos between art and fashion. Today there is a mingling of all that is contemporary," Missoni said last week at an event marking the closure of show at a contemporary art museum in nearby Gallarate, where the family business was born, exploring her parents' artistic inspiration throughout the decades. Launched in 2011, Les Benjamins, founded by Bünyamin Aydın, introduced its designs with an "Ottoman Punk" presentation accompanied by whirling dervishes on Sunday. For Aydın, irony is the key word, something clearly seen in his creations. Mixing parody and fun, the Ottoman Punk look is nothing if not provocative. His designs are available in Rome, Milan and Florence.At the fashion week, Miuccia Prada took fashion on a sea voyage back in time to explore the human condition, contemplating such present-day crises as the unrelenting flows of migrants arriving in Europe by sea. Prada's looks for next season are seafaring, but nothing of the jolly mariner. The mood was somber and melancholy, and also deeply romantic, as the designer said she wanted "to reflect what is happening now with what is happening in history. To see if we have something to learn." For the venue, her theater was transformed into a sort of town square, where people of all walks of life meet, she said. Sturdy coats and capes, in black, navy, tan and white, had weather-worn collars and lapels, which were deconstructed and then detached.
