MILAN — The latest Jil Sander collection with shimmering surfaces cut dramatically against the darkened runway on Wednesday, the second day of Milan Fashion Week runway previews for next fall and winter.

After the show was over, the Italian OTB Group announced that designers Lucie and Luke Meier were leaving the fashion house they joined in 2017. A release said the decision was mutual. Femininity subverted
In what would be their final collection, the designers subverted all things feminine with edgy details.
Frocks and outerwear created from long, sequined fringe grabbed the light, while feathery details fluttered on wool, creating contrast and movement. Delicate bows decorated long sculptural dresses.
All this prettiness was grounded by punk details: half-kilts belted over garments and silver hardware, like safety-pin-like necklaces, chunky baubles hanging from belts and studded footwear. Light from darkness
Delicate floral prints seemed to have been dipped in a dark wash for an ombre effect on coats, dresses and suits. The effect — light out of darkness — was mirrored in knitwear.
The color palette was mostly black, white and greys, with pops of bubble gum pink in a long fringe dress and leather ensembles in royal blue for him and red for her. Trend watch
A pair of shearling fur coats, shearling detailing on a long, deep-slit dress attest that fur is making a comeback on Milan runways.
Fur and leather collars that close with a silver chain. Silver accents in general. Shiny surfaces, sequined fringe.
