As Milan Fashion Week continues for a fourth day, there are no signs of it slowing down with Sportmax returning to the fore with a Spring/Summer 2023 showcase. The runway serves as a sequel to Max Mara earlier this week which paid homage to House muse Renée Perle with wide-brim hats, bonnets and 1930s silhouettes.

The designs however has titled the forthcoming collection “Bouba and Kiki” – possibly in reference to the mapping of speech sounds and visual shape – suggesting a graphic runway may await. Return here from Friday September 23 at 11:45am local time (or 7:45pm AEST) to livestream the show and stay tuned for our post-show report.
