Youth culture is increasingly trickling into Milan by way of emerging brands and new talent at the older ones. Technically, Ferragamo is no exception to this, having hired Maximilian Davis as creative director when he was just 26. But Davis, now in his third season at the house, is unambiguously making clothes for grown-ups. And real ones, at that.
It’s easy to envision a sophisticated, polished woman (or man) — a fashion editor, successful creative entrepreneur or accomplished actor (like Tracee Ellis Ross, who sat front row), perhaps — wearing any look in his Spring 2024 collection for Ferragamo, which is filled with pieces destined to be the MVPs of one’s wardrobe: beautifully tailored suiting, timeless outerwear, quietly chic cocktail dresses and easy, versatile separates for everyday.
To be clear, that doesn’t mean boring. These clothes exemplify how today’s minimalism can be modern and interesting through cut, fabrication, styling and detail — a distinctive collar on a jacket or button-down, color-blocking on a tunic dress, leather accents on lightweight tops and dresses, abstract shapes printed or cut into garments, chestnut fringed beading seen on clothing and handbags.
Of course, the big focus for a house like Ferragamo is on leather accessories, and Spring 2024 is filled with instantly-desirable shoes, purses and belts. The designer also makes it a point to focus on a few graphic colors that will go on to be associated with the brand and this collection, including a rich Kelly green, a classic red, a sky blue and a very light pistachio, used for clothes and accessories alike. They all play well with the collection’s many neutrals: black, khaki, white, grey and espresso-brown.
