Silhouettes that stand away from the body become wearable architecture in the hands of masterful designers in Milan. Crisp cottons and smooth leathers are deftly molded into A-lines, cylinders and ovoid volumes. Tops, skirts, culottes and simple coats in solid tones — petal pinks, powder blues and saturated teals and wines — create sophisticated color-blocked effects when ensembled. –Sharon Graubard
