Pitti Uomo celebrates 30 years this year and after Salvatore Ferragamo helped finance the restoration of one of Florence's most famed landmarks, the Florentine label showed its SS20 collection during Pitti. It was a coming-home event with call backs to the past but looking towards the future with a new creative director. The SS20 collection was more colorful with deep oranges, blues, olives and more; all seen on relaxed and sporty clothes. Especially eye-catching were the leather garments. Though they might not be the most practical in the summer, the suppleness and color saturation of the burnt orange pants or a light blue moto-jacket were inviting enough to want to purchase even if it meant you'd sweat through it in the hot summer sun. And, really, isn't that what fashion is about? Throwing practical out of the way for a beautiful piece of clothing?
RUNWAY: Salvatore Ferragamo SS20
A new design team at Salvatore Ferragamo, with men's headed by Guillaume Meilland, offered a different take on the Ferragamo aesthetic. Since going public, the Ferragamo house has undergone lots of change, thanks in part to its infusion of principal from the stock offering but also from the change in aesthetics due to the design team turnover. Here, Meilland makes his debut with ultra wide proportions, utilizing the house's signature leathers on pants, outerwear and, of course, footwear. The collection trended more in the beige-scale while a flora printed shirt broke up the monochromatic looks. It was a decent effort with sellable items, save for the odd leather overalls.

For its latest outing, Salvatore Ferragamo offered a laid back collection of clothes perfect for beach holidays. The looks were effortless, clean and offered enough luxury in its fabrication and detailing to warrant the high prices.
RUNWAY: Salvatore Ferragamo SS18
For its latest collection, Salvatore Ferragamo offered a somber collection of well cut sportswear with varying proportions. There were oversized trenches, shrunken and boxy suit jackets, and straight high-waisted trousers that gave the sense that these clothes were made for a different body, like the ones a young adult would wear, maybe (very luxurious and expensive) hand-me-downs from their father that don't exactly fit but still look good after years in the attic.

Craftsmanship has always been a part of Salvatore Ferragamo's legacy and that was exemplified in its SS17 collection, with some pieces needed hundreds upon hundreds of hours of artisan hands to create. While ostentatious pieces such as that are more for collector's or used as a show of the atelier's talent and expertise, the rest of the collection was not half bad either. The typically somber label proffered excellent tailored pieces and paired them with sportier elements to create dapper looks that looked fresh.

Salvatore Ferragamo is one of the stalwarts of Italian tailoring, their shoes gave the label an international following. While its fashions have always trended towards ultra conservative boardroom tailoring, Massimilliano Giornetti has injected life into the label and for FW16 that came in the form of a boho-cum-tailoring collection. Kitschy knits with hearts and arrows added a much needed youthful element while some very smart coats like one in a beautiful shade of tangerine was one of the highlights of the almost-40 looks.

Massimo Giornetti's use of skinny ties and boxy double breasted jackets gave the SS16 collection he designed for Salvatore Ferragamo as a cool 40s and 50s vibe. Vibrant colors and a prodigious use of fabrics brought this collection to the present with its sharp sportswear like a cool mustard suits and a handful of graphic sweaters, like one that spelled out Ferragamo in glittery letters.

On the second day of MFW, there is a second sighting of a dirt runway, coincidence or are menswear designers looking to rough up their image? Possible but Salvatore Ferragamo's Massimiliano Giornetti looked to nature and its inhabitants for inspiration. Deeply saturated hues made for covetable pieces, like a waxed leather coat, while oversized scarves in a dizzying array of colors and finishes, some with fringe, some without, lent itself to the idea of protection in the wild. There were birds that flocked together seen on knits, a baboon on a coat, and more wildlife sightings on suits in this intricate collection that showed more than Giornetti's ability to cut a suit. Instead, this collection's true story came in the form of the embroidery and attention to detail seen on the clothing themselves. They were never garish or ostentatious because the Ferragamo name stands for quality and not outre spectacle but this evolution of it's conservative but well made clothing is a welcome change at the now-publicly traded company.

At Salvatore Ferragamo's Spring/Summer 2015 collection, the Ferragamo man was ready to go on safari, evidenced by giraffe prints and plenty of safari jackets. Also prevalent in the collection was the idea of cinched waists, which were made all the more important since the clothes were undoubtedly boxy and roomy. Taking cues from nature, there was plenty of textures as well and were styled expertly when paired with contrasting patterns and the end result was a clean and relaxed collection that had ample for tailoring and sportswear to appease Ferragamo's large legion of followers.
