To say that Cara Delevingne is one of today’s “it” girls would be an understatement— she is the “it” girl. You might think that becoming the face of a major luxury brand (we’re looking at you, Burberry) by the age of 20 requires years of agonizing auditions, tireless networking, and equal parts blood, sweat and tears, but Cara Delevingne is known for more than just her eyebrows. Descending from a long line of high society Brits, we think it’s pretty safe to say that it was only a matter of time before Cara stepped into the spotlight, herself.

MILAN, Italy — We tipped our friend Sonny Vandevelde to give us a behind-the-scenes look into the collections in Milan for Spring/Summer 2013. Japan was clearly on the mind, with unmistakable silhouettes and motifs from the island nation appearing in strong outings from Prada and Etro. Versace and Dolce & Gabbana made their seasonal statements in a flurry of prints, textures and covetable accessories, all in the spirit of their house signatures, while Fendi’s stand-out modern colour blocking was the talk of the town.

This season’s Atelier Versace collection is built upon the idea of deconstruction and reconstruction in all its various forms. Inspired by the imagery and decoration of tarot cards, powerful symbols such as the sun, moon and world are reproduced on weightless fabrics with a glass effect.

Hourglass is the “New Look” of the season. Versace makes the most of it in conformity to the high end peplum trend. The hips are important, as vigorously stressed at Milan Fashion Week. There’s no alternative to peplum numbers when it comes to the current vogue. Donatella Versace made such statement clear enough by revisiting the concept of shimmering steel which defines a peplum and gives focus on the hips. The same shimmering steel is used to emphasize that bust area, making the collection more attractive, fashionably seductive and forwardly feminine with lots of chic.

 “What we all aim for is to make it more approachable, but that doesn’t mean low end,” said Edward Enninful, who, as style and fashion director of W, is a critical part of the international A-team that’s been tasked with transforming the iconic Condé Nast magazine, which has seen the top tier of its masthead completely turn over in a series of shakeups since Stefano Tonchi’s appointment as editor-in-chief in early 2010.

“My fantasy is to leave options for women — to make their individuality come out, to try to accomplish what they want, and I think women want to look beautiful. (It’s) less about jacket(s) and more about shirt(s) and about sweaters, about T-shirts and about freedom.”
