Max Mara Keeps It Sleek for SS18

Yesterday in Milan, Max Mara presented its spring/summer 2018 collection—a poetic and precise offering for the modern woman. We saw a piece from the brand’s early days making a return—a sand-on-sand heritage logo motif—woven into a trench coat and printed onto a leather jacket. Also for the trench coat was a re-emergence of it as a crisp linen spolverino, and as a pencil skirt, too. Structured blazers and tailored trousers gave the collection a bit of playful roughness, and ankle-length skirts—like buckled kilts, sheer looks, and skirts made of long strips of fabric—added some delicate drama.
