A catalogue of fabrics does not make a collection. There is no design here, it feels like textile samples from the Etro archives.

Knowing what he is capable of and that he worked at Fendi, it’s almost a pity to lose his talent at Etro. Etro seems to be so difficult to modernize…
I think someone with the sensibility of Isabel Marant can make Etro happen. But this won’t.

Honestly, he should've had Kim's job at Fendi or had just continued his own line after the pandemic.

I don't know what you guys are seeing but there are some fantastic and beautiful clothes here.

However I'm not really sold on how it's all gelling together. The big picture isn't really so compelling.

There's some glimmers of hope, but the styling gets in the way of things because it's all over the place.

Does anyone else get a Missoni feel from this? A little more Bohemian in spirit, and I like the direction of it. I also like how warm some of the fabrics and colours which definitely came from his time at Fendi.

I like the first and 34 coats, that's it. The rest of the collection doesn't do it for me, it looks like a mix and matches from various seasons of Michele's Gucci.

I tried to root for Marco because he's talented but what he presented so far doesn't look promising to me.

I feel bad for him. I feel like he knows and understands Fendi and with a house like Fendi, he would capable to do more. While I like some of this designs at Etro, the fabrication is definitely unlike Fendi.

I feel that Fendi would also allow him to be more sincere, because he's very strong at textiles and fabrications and Fendi has a more "high fashion" background thanks to Lagerfeld's 50-year tenure. Etro is much more bourgeoise and, therefore, more restricting.

Oh no, I think that Marco's Etro is good, but it's his personal worst. The individual pieces/looks are gorgeous and beautiful, but the final picture leaves me underwhelmed. I'd like to see him go in a more Bill Gibb direction there, that could do wonders.

Honestly, we need it, because Grazioli decided to go all black, grey and metropolitan at actual Missoni.

The last 3 suit with blazers (esp chocolate one) were really lovely but the rest of the collection was a complete eye sore , with horrible prints, and fabrics , its like a 1970s wallpaper catalog vomited

 

[Norden]

To me this kinda falls in the same box as Michelle’s Gucci and current Marni, with less gimmicks. They kind of share a cultural background that’s typically modern Milanese art crowd. It’s a bit vintage, opulent but still industrial. I don’t mind the collection, it’s nice and it has some point of view, but I don’t think it’s good enough to breathe fresh air into etro.

Together it looks too heavy but there are some great separates here. They'll look great work in the real world liek that purple gradient sweater.

 

[ah ah]

I believe Marco De Vincenzo is probably one of the most talented designer the Milan scene has offered, yet the prove Etro is quite an enigma. I still believe he made a decent job with this collection, there are nice pieces, and some poetry is being introduced to somehow oldfashioned Etro prints. I am not sure all ties together properly, but I believe is the codes he introduced is a good start to build a solid collection over the next seasons. It is missing some strength, I believe the pieces itself are beautiful.
