Marni

What you need to know: Francesco Risso may have only been running things at Marni for around two years now but he’s definitely making his mark at the Italian label. Creating a new seasonal collection that boasted colourful silhouettes that blended art, charm and elegance, the looks included a raw aesthetic that played with the concept of artists, including painters and sculptors, getting their hands dirty.

Wishlist-worthy: Forget the tiny frame sunglasses trend, Marni’s runway sunglass collection is high on our must-have list. 

Giorgio Armani

In his new Spring/Summer ’19 range, pieces came in pastel and silver coloured satins. Super lightweight, subtle and relaxed, the elongated separates are this season’s wardrobe must-haves. 

Celebrity front row: The brand’s global beauty ambassador Cate Blanchett was there, along with Patrick Schwarzenegger, Alessandra Ambrosio, Sara Sampaio, Poppy Delevingne and Sonam Kapoor. 

Fila

With inspirations from tennis, swimming and sailing, as well as influences from Bjorn Borg’s signature style (he was one of the brand’s most popular faces), the pieces are certain to be all over our ‘gram soon enough. 

In case you didn’t know: Fila’s Spring/Summer ’19 showcase marked the brand’s first ever runway show and with its debut, came a collection that brought a whole new meaning to sports luxe.
