Today marks the fourth day of Menswear Milan Fashion Week – the final on this season’s jam-packed schedule. At 02:00pm CEST, the fashion pack gathered together to bare witness to Sabato De Sarno’s sophomore menswear collection as Gucci creative director. The Italian designer opted to stage his latest showcase within the Triennale Milano, a sprawling design and art museum situated in the largest park in Milan. Sat perched on the front row was Paul Mescal (a brand ambassador) donning a striped cotton pair of shorts that upon first glance could have been mistaken for boxers. Mescal’s choice in attire was in fact a preview of things to come, with De Sarno dressing 41 of his 46 models in shorts. One model took to the runway donning just a pair of leather shorts in Gucci’s De Sarno-designed “Ancora Rosso” oxblood color. Surfing motifs were splashed throughout the collection, with De Sarno seeking inspiration from William Finnegan’s autobiography Barbarian Days. On the accessories front, the Gucci B crossbody bag made a reappearance – first introduced in De Sarno’s debut collection.
