Milan's style-elite celebrate classic tailoring at the SS18 presentations.
The indisputable home of tailoring, Milan never fails to deliver on the sartorial front. With centuries of heritage to draw from, Italy's fashion capital lays claim to one of the richest patrimonies of menswear technique. This wealth of knowledge informs new collections each season, full of nods to classic tailoring given a contemporary update.
Home to some of the biggest names in luxury fashion including Valentino, Gucci, Neil Barrett, and Marcelo Burlon, Milan is a pivotal destination for the development of international menswear.
Following on from our coverage of New York and London, our man on the streets, Robert Spangle, captured some of the best men's style at MFW SS18.

Well-cut flannel pants are ordaned with tailored details for an elevated finish. Pair with a clean pair of classic Stan Smith sneakers to add a sportswear edge that doesn't feel contrived.
A crisp blazer paired with a simple chino is a tailored statement without the fuss. Experiment with gradiating tones of blue to add a sense of depth to an otherwise simple look.
Go-to streetwear staples are an off-duty wardrobe essential. This season has seen a revival of American sportswear brands - key names to shop include Tommy Jeans, Carhartt, and Patagonia. Pair with a fresh pair of your favourite Nike sneakers for a put-t0gether finish.
