A colourful display mixed with a soft natural palette set the scene for Versace's spring/summer '08 show at Milan Fashion Week yesterday. Grecian drapery and sophisticated holiday tailoring in block colours were stand-outs for being simple. Has Donatella Versace hit the nail on the head with refusing to overdo it with dazzling prints and overdone accessorisies?

For me, I am particularly loving the lose beige jumpsuit with matching belt (above, middle) and bright tailored shorts with super-candy man-style shirt (above, right). There was a definite safari feel to the more casual pieces of the collection combined with loads of colourful satin. I especially drooled over the high-waisted black satin trousers which tied at the bottom and belted at the top (below, middle).
