There was a film noir mood to this collection, with fierce-looking ladies striding around in oversized, tucked and layered trench coats, and towering python platforms with spiky heels.

In typical noir style, nothing was as it seemed. Those trenches hid slinky lingerie, lacy bodysuits, and teeny bras paired with low-slung pencil skirts – and lots of flesh.

Models walked through a series of doorways, part of a labyrinth set that was organized like a maze, while the soundtrack featured scratchy static-y sounds, adding to the sense of sexual intrigue.

The designers, Gilda Ambrosio and Giorgia Tordini , saw this season’s woman as “indomitable,” complex, and full of contradictions, so it’s no surprise this collection took in everything from oversized tailoring to knitwear and racy lingerie.
