MILAN – Sabato De Sarno’s first collection for Gucci, presented on Friday, delivered on owner Kering’s pledge to make the Italian brand more timeless and classical. There were lots of minimalist and basic designs you could wear in the office, deep V necklines and sequined mini evening dresses, but no real “wow” moment and little innovation in terms of accessories – where Gucci was expected to shine.

The mood was calmer and darker at Prada and surprisingly emotional at Ferrari – the fashion label being built around the luxury race car. Fendi brought us a celebration of Zen beauty while Bottega Veneta produced a joyful ode to Mother Nature.

GENEVA - There’s a new battle of the titans brewing in the world of European luxury. For years, rivalry between Bernard Arnault and François-Henri Pinault propelled the sales of expensive bags, clothes and shoes to ever greater heights.

The downturn in discretionary spending in North America has dented the sales of fashion and luxury brands and taken a toll on U.S. department stores.
