At Milan Fashion Week, the Moschino Spring 2020 RTW collection shared a variety of styles inspired by Picasso, his art and muses. While some outfits paid homage to paintings like 'Girl Before a Mirror' and 'Girl With a Mandolin,' others featured prints that were hand-painted at the studio before they were digitized.
The clothing collection offers hints of Picasso's cubist style and flair for the surreal, exploring bold stripes, more muted tones and even rich shades of blue that tie into Picasso's Blue Period.
One of the most standout pieces was sported by model Cara Taylor, who walked the runway in an illusory piece that turned her into a living, breathing, walking painting inspired by the artist.
