Raf Simons: Fashion ‘Will Not Learn’ From The Pandemic
We’re not entirely sure how it rolled around so quickly, but we’re here to let you know that fashion season is upon us once again. This time, we’re strapping in for the AW21 menswear shows, which kick off in Milan today.

Ahead of the big day, the two designers also linked up for a tête-à-tête, with the resulting conversation published by The New York Times this morning (January 15).
