Alessandro Sartori, the man whose name was made for a career in menswear, must have felt the love as his last collection for Z Zegna got a special send-off yesterday.

Donatella Versace has come to a critical realization: She doesn't have to re-invent the wheel, she just needs to remind the world what the wheel looked like in the first place.

Miuccia Prada has always insisted she is most inspired by things she hates. On the evidence of her new men's collection, she clearly has no time for golf.

The Cavalli man will never be a shrinking violet, and to prove it, he prefers his violet suede blouson with full python trim. The house's assertive suits, with their strong shoulders, nipped waists, and generous, even spendthrift lapels, come in purple, yellow, and fuchsia.
