Burberry's menswear show has been heralded the best of Milan Fashion Week. Christopher Bailey took homage to 60s London - an era of inspiration for many designers - and showed a collection mixing military styling, youthful silhouettes and aristocratic undertones. The essence of what Burberry is was never lost in overdesign. Bailey's clever tailoring was spot on as to what is current.

Prada's sobriety was no surprise after Miuccia toned down the collection for Autumn/Winter. Menswear was back to Prada basics of skinny trousers and well-cut suits, techno sheen jackets and the famous logo triangle.

Donatella Versace toned down the collection, focussing around black and white hues accented by bold colour, in shirting, polos, and soft jackets worn with tailored trousers. The finale of tropical swimshorts and Miami Vice beachwear showed the House still had the pizzaz of fore.
