Mila Schön© Copyright 2013
The Maison Heritage. The “focus” addressed to the real Mila Schön essence: at the origins of its shapes, structures, volumes and elements which had created an innovative Luxury-à-Porter, among the Milanese “bourgeoise”.
The Fall-Winter Collection 2013-2014, revives that “touch”, which is nowadays a summary of determined, marked and seductive elegance.
Four shapes and languages characterize the collection. The use of leather- byker style mood – to tops and bottoms, Eva Kant skintight body suit, and overcoats, some of them enriched by original Bells Sleeves and fur inserts, for both day and evening occasions.
Volume strength, precious fabrics, minimal shapes, mini and macro ruffles, total Black styles, are mixed to transparency , a part of the collection defined See Thru Peplum. Leitmotiv colors : brown, orange and black, are mixed together with “Maiolica” archival prints, enriched for the evening with strass, creating a cascading effect for a Sparkling Lights concept.

The Fall Winter 2013 collection while remaining coherent to its deeply Italian soul, it embraces international echoes and influences : in the background St. Petersburg, the Western taste and opulence of its architecture, the light of a winter day that slowly rises in the most European cities of Russia, fairy-tale landscapes and rarefied atmosphere of color notes.
Echoes and quotations – Gogol, Mark Rothko, and Sonia Delaunay – are transformed in the tailoring of a parade coat in saturated colors and precious coats of velvet, double-breasted suits in the rigor of refined, luxury fantasies in silk scarves and waistcoats , in the softness of a warm but strict fur lining.
A composite but casual elegance, where the codes, strict time, are now little more than a sophisticated game through which to express its own unique personality of a man who is a little ‘retro and a little’ edge.
Exclusive fabrics – cashmere, silk, Casentino and bouclé – marry the classic tones of brown, blue and gray, mixed with saturated and intense colors as purple, brick red and dark, or in those colors of mineral oil, petrol blue and malachite.
Dry and comfortable cuts for clothes for single and double breasted, but the coat is the undisputed star of the collection, precious and large wool-silk and mink inlaid, or soft boiled wool resulting in deco, or military-style lofty and sumptuous, with astrakhan collar.
Upon completion of impeccable style, important accessories in crocodile, perfect touches to a luxurious collection in memory of a past in which men chose clothing as an expression of status symbol.
