Alessandro Michele is on a roll and so is the exotic, boho, gently retro signature style he embraces. It’s all to the fore in the Gucci campaign for pre-fall 16 with the by-now-familiar mad mash-up approach. It’s been refreshed by putting the models in an aviary-cum-hothouse-cum-library and includes everyone’s favourite on-trend birds, flamingos (as well…
Sometimes, the season and the pre-season just don’t give us much direction about where particular items are going. And usually, those core pieces – all those little tops, smart or casual pants, career wear skirts et al – that are crying out for change are the pieces most likely to see little of it. But on…

Print and pattern specialists have gone head over heels for flora and fauna this pre-season which means there’s a surefire way to update key pieces. Choose your motifs from among our feathered friends or get the butterfly effect.
