The Milan Men’s Fashion Week Calendar for Spring 2026 Is Here


The weather is getting warmer and spring is slowly transitioning into summer—yay! But not so fast. Before us fashion folks grab our beach totes and turn on those “out-of-office” autoreplies, an early summer of fashion shows is on the horizon.

Soon after Louis Vuitton’s resort 2026 show in the south of France this Thursday and Maria Grazia Chiuri’s Rome extravaganza for Christian Dior next week, the men’s shows will kick off at Pitti Uomo on June 17 and close in Paris on June 29. Sandwiched in between, as usual, is Milan Fashion Week, which just released its men’s collections calendar for the spring 2026 season. Here’s what you need to know about it.

Gucci and Fendi, typically Milan Fashion Week staples, are missing in action again. Demna’s debut show for the former is expected to happen during the ready-to-wear collections in September, with Gucci showing co-ed, studio-designed collections in the meantime. Sabato De Sarno reinstituted split shows at Gucci after Alessandro Michele’s all-gender era—whether Demna follows suit or keeps it co-ed, as he did at Balenciaga, remains to be seen, but we can expect his spring 2026 presentation, at least, to encompass both genders given the fact that Gucci isn’t showing during men’s. Fendi, for its part, is being guided by Silvia Venturini Fendi’s steady hand, and following the warm reception her centennial celebration in February received, she’ll be staging a co-ed show in September once more.

Also missing from the calendar are rising star Luca Magliano, JW Anderson as Jonathan Anderson prepares to present his debut collection for Dior Men in Paris on June 27, and Zegna, which usually occupies the closing slot in Milan. Alessandro Sartori will take his spring 2026 Zegna collection to Dubai this season instead. Scheduled for June 11, it will be the brand’s first-ever runway outside of Italy and the unofficial kickoff to the spring 2026 men’s collections. Giorgio Armani will tie the ribbon in Milan instead on June 23.

In the absence of Federico Cina, who often opens the schedule, the inaugural honors go to Satoshi Kuwata of Setchu on June 20. Last season Kuwata staged his first full runway presentation as a guest at Pitti Uomo. Saul Nash is returning for his sophomore season in Milan following his fall 2025 show; he will present his collection on June 22. Etro is back on the presentation schedule with its men’s collection showcase on June 22. (Designer Marco De Vincenzo began staging co-ed shows for fall and a stand-alone presentation for men’s spring as of last year.) Bally is currently operating sans creative director after Simone Bellotti’s exit (he’s headed to Jil Sander), so the brand is preparing a co-ed presentation on… June 22. (Busy day, that one, be sure to pack snacks!)
