Fashion hounds: Milan show cuts to the chase

Milan – Moncler Gamme Bleu has unveiled its autumn/winter 2011 collection at Milan fashion week with a hunting style-inspired show featuring horses and dogs.

Designer Thom Browne continued the diffusion brand’s tradition of visually spectacular shows by sending models down the runway accompanied by beagles.

Padded jackets and classical patterns were featured throughout the collection, while flashes of red and green joined the mainly muted grey and black palette. Modern cuts were mixed with a traditional aesthetic and Browne’s signature red, white and blue colours were included as details on cuffs and on the dogs’ leads.
