John Varvatos - Milan Men’s Fashion Week Spring 2011

This marks the tenth year for John Varvatos and our 4th season showing in Milan. Although I've been in this industry for over 30 years, and been a part of countless shows...there is always the element of the unexpected...which by this time, I have come to expect. To prove the point even further, I landed in Malpensa airport to find out my luggage never made it on the plane......who ever said fashion was glamorous?

After endless days of styling and tailoring...we're ready to head to Chiesa sconsacrata di San Paolo Converso, where we have shown for the past 3 seasons.

The quiet before the storm....



In just under 15 minutes, months worth of work walk down the runway.



After 10 days in Milan, countless hours of styling, editing, meetings, interviews and a few dozen coffees, my luggage finally showed up. Who would have expected it?
