Introduction to Milan Men’s Fashion Week

The weather is getting warmer, and spring is slowly turning into summer. However, before we can fully enjoy the summer, the fashion world is already looking ahead to the next season’s fashion shows. The men’s fashion shows are just around the corner, with Louis Vuitton’s Resort 2026 Show in southern France and Maria Grazia Chiuri’s Rome Extravaganza for Christian Dior.

Milan Fashion Week Schedule

The Milan Fashion Week has released its men’s collection calendar for the 2026 spring season. Some notable designers are missing from the schedule, including Gucci and Fendi. Gucci’s debut show under Demna is expected to take place during the ready-to-wear collections in September, while Fendi will show a co-ed collection in February.

Notable Designers and Their Schedules

Luca Magliano, JW Anderson, and Zegna are some of the designers who will be showcasing their collections during the Milan Fashion Week. However, Zegna will be showing its collection in Dubai this season, marking the brand’s first runway show outside of Italy. Giorgio Armani will close the Milan Fashion Week on June 23.

New Additions to the Schedule

Satoshi Kuwata from Setchu will open the schedule on June 20, followed by Saul Nash on June 22. Etro will also return to the presentation plan with a show case for men’s collection. Bally will present a CO-ED presentation on June 22, as the brand is currently operating without a creative director.

The State of Men’s Fashion

The men’s calendar has undergone some changes, with some labels switching to co-ed shows or changing their schedules. The state of men’s fashion will not come into focus until 2026, but it will be interesting to watch how the industry evolves. The game of musical chairs has finally come to a standstill, but it will be exciting to see how the new designers and schedules will shape the future of men’s fashion.
