Proof Milan's Street Style Is the Best Place to Find Print Outfit Inspo
London Fashion Week might have finished, but that doesn't mean we have to go without our daily street style inspiration, as Milan Fashion Week is now in full swing. In London, the fashion crowd is more relaxed and playful; however, Milan is where you see glamorous head-to-toe designer looks and towering heels instead of trainers. Of course, we always see a lot of Gucci in the Italian city, and this season, the bag of choice is the house's quilted belt bag. But even if you don't have a Gucci budget, there are a number of styling lessons you can take from Milan, from how to dress up your jeans and how to make the most simple outfit street style–worthy.
Scroll below to see our favourite looks from Milan Fashion Week so far.
Style Notes: Sassy printed boots, a white tee, and a mini denim skirt make such an easy-to-wear outfit.
Style Notes: All black but showing off a bit of leg is the Italian way to do the transitional wardrobe.
Style Notes: Forgo a bra, and keep your bold blazer unbuttoned.
Style Notes: The sock boot trend isn't going anywhere.
Style Notes: Clash your bag's print with your coat's.
Style Notes: You don't have to wear print to stand out in Milan. Try two bold colours instead.

Style Notes: Giovanna Battaglia Engelbert dressed like a rainbow on the first day of Milan Fashion Week, wearing her rainbow slogan T-shirt with a multicoloured pleated Gucci skirt.
