Mixte shares this image about the issue: “Between the revocation of the right to abortion in the United States and the acceleration of climate change, 2022 could seriously discourage us and amplify our feeling of powerlessness. However, true to its predictive abilities, fashion has been driving and motivating us since the year began to remind us of our ability to change things.

Irish twins models Sadhbh and Cadhla O’Reilly are styled by Michela Buratti in the season’s menswear suitings from top luxury brands. Checks, houndstooth, and geometric patterns make a big impression in the often sedate world of men’s suitings.

Most important — yes, the twins did walk the Gucci show in Milan this week, one of 68 sets of twins - turned out by Alessandro Michele. The designer himself is the child of an identical twin. Mum Eralda and Mum Giuliana “shared a genetic solidarity but, above all, they shared an intimacy which was inaccessible to others,” the maverick human, who continues to inspire, wrote in his show notes.
