Fashion Week is not just a runway. It is a stage where brands forecast new trends through fashion, showcase unexpected surprises, and hint at collaborations. And this 2025 Fall/Winter Milan Men’s Fashion Week did not disappoint those expectations.

Prada’s bold western boots, Korean actors shining at the Dolce & Gabbana show, collections embodying brand philosophy, and unexpected collaboration news—we’ve summarized the eight hottest issues of this season.

Prada, reserving next season’s trend with western boots?

As soon as the Prada (PRADA) show ended, social media heated up. Among them, the most talked-about was the western boots.

It was a surprising change that boots made a significant appearance in this collection, as they have been hard to find in Prada’s men’s collections in recent years. However, they are different from traditional western boots. They feature a lack of classical details, with bold primary colors and Art Nouveau patterns as highlights. The vintage leather with natural cracks and the silhouette of western boots were reinterpreted with Prada’s unique sensibility, capturing attention.

In particular, the combination of skinny pants and western boots seems likely to quickly establish itself as a trend on the streets.

This season’s Prada show felt like a red carpet event.

Prada’s new ambassador Kim Soo-hyun visited Milan for the show, and the cheers of fans welcoming him filled the area outside the venue. Additionally, Kim Tae-ri and Sana joined, shining a light on the presence of Korean celebrities.

Moreover, Luis Patricio, Kentaro Sakaguchi, Sebastian Stan, Win Metawin, Troye Sivan, Harris Dickinson, and director Luca Guadagnino—stars representing various fields made the fashion show even more special.

PDF, first official debut at Milan Fashion Week

Leading the Milan streetwear scene, Domenico Formichetti’s brand PDF officially debuted at Fashion Week.

Italian football star Moise Kean opened the runway, and style icon **Sita Abellan** walked the catwalk while pregnant, drawing even more attention. This collection, showcasing a strong rebellious mood and street sensibility, was a moment that reaffirmed the presence of streetwear at Milan Fashion Week.

Korean actors taking over the Dolce & Gabbana show

The Dolce & Gabbana (Dolce & Gabbana) show featured special Korean actors who heated up the scene.

They were Jung Hae-in, Nam Yoon-su, and Noh Sang-hyun. From the moment they entered the venue, they received a warm welcome from local fans, making their popularity palpable.

Jung Hae-in chose a deeply cut shirt and burgundy suit, creating a more mature and charismatic atmosphere. Nam Yoon-su wore a white striped jacket and wide pants, showcasing a bright and relaxed mood.

Noh Sang-hyun perfectly pulled off a sheer leather jacket and all-black styling, flaunting a sophisticated sense. The styles they showcased are likely to become the next season’s menswear trends.

Simon Cracker, a sharp satire on fashion

**Simon Cracker** was one of the brands that delivered the most intense message at this Fashion Week.

The title of the collection was “Le Perle Ai Porci!”, meaning ‘pearls to pigs’. This show featured fake Hermes Birkin bags, scarves, and Chanel jackets transformed with spray paint. Even a dress made from luxury brand tags graced the runway, creating a strong performance that satirized the absurdity of the fashion industry and the disconnect from reality.

Zegna, a runway embracing nature

**Zegna**’s fashion show was on a different level from the start. Amid the sounds of sheep bleating, the runway transformed into a vast meadow and hills.

This collection centered on eco-friendly fabrics emphasizing sustainability and a color palette inspired by nature. Soft sandy beige, olive green, and deep brown—colors resembling nature completed the comfortable mood of the fall and winter season.

Zegna’s show, which showcased a brand philosophy where nature and fashion coexist, was a touching moment in itself.

Saul Nash x Lululemon collaboration announcement

Breaking the boundaries between fashion and sportswear, **Saul Nash** caught attention once again with this collection.

In particular, the news of the collaboration with Lululemon was surprisingly announced at Fashion Week, generating even more buzz. This collaboration collection consists of tops and leggings made from highly stretchable functional materials, and will officially launch in March.
