A buyer’s take on Milan Fashion Week, with Bloomingdale’s Marissa Galante Frank
Thursday, 5 March, 2026

On this week’s Milan Fashion Week edition of the Glossy Podcast, senior fashion reporter Zofia Zwieglinska is joined by Marissa Galante Frank, fashion director at Bloomingdale's, for a buyer’s perspective on the Fall 2026 collections. The week included major creative director debuts and strong showings from heritage Italian houses, including Prada, Gucci, Bottega Veneta and Fendi. Major creative director debuts included Demna’s first runway show at Gucci, Maria Grazia Chiuri’s return to Fendi and Meryll Rogge’s debut at Marni as brands navigate a slower luxury market and rising pressures on multi-brand retail. The Fall 2026 calendar included 52 runway shows and 89 presentations, highlighting a moment of creative transition for Milan’s biggest houses.
