It’s the last day of the men’s shows, but that doesn't mean the pace has lessened; it's day four and there are more trends to be had - platform shoes, skirt shorts, bright orange macs with only the weather in the fashion pack's way. The news has warned of the excessive heat - not good news for those queuing.

Trends on the catwalk

Marni: shorts that looked like skirts, and billowing voluminous shirts.

Fendi: the biggest story so far – shoes with wedges, for men. Not content with the Cuban heel, Silvia Fendi wanted to add something feminine to the boys’ shoes. Voila la platform wedge.

Calvin Klein: one word neon. Bright, bold, and requiring sunglasses.

Ermenegildo Zegna: classic tailoring in classic neutral summer shades – oh and two pink suits.

Belstaff: Lots of shiny patent macs and plenty of colour to end Milan men’s fashion week.

Trends off the catwalk

THE GOOD

Bow ties – and not a dinner jacket in sight. A little ridiculous but harmless. This is men’s fashion week, let them have their fun.

THE BAD

Orange espadrilles – keep them to the beach love.

THE UGLY

Is a Versace Lamborghini too much? Possibly, but it might just have been the best looking fashion accessory of the week.

People

Armani pulled the big shots in again – this time for his mainline collection, Giorgio Armani. Clive Owen and Adrien Brody graced the front row. Full marks for the biggest A list attendees.
