MILAN — The next generation of supermodels was out in force on the second day of Milan Fashion Week on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Gigi Hadid, sister Bella Hadid and Kaia Gerber walked for Max Mara and Fendi as Milan designers came up with looks for the power woman — giving expression to a movement of women showing they mean business as they unite to put an end to harassment in all forms and define themselves as they wish to be seen.<\/p>\n

Some highlights from previews of next fall and winter, including shows by Max Mara, Fendi, Prada and Pucci.<\/p>\n

MAX MARA’S POWER WOMAN<\/p>\n

Gigi Hadid walked confidently for an early morning Max Mara call in a melange of leopard prints softened by wooly finishes.<\/p>\n

A spotted sweater was tucked into a tight skirt and worn with a long Max Mara trench. The look was completed with leather gloves and suspenders, worn off the shoulders to show she’s in charge.<\/p>\n

The punk-inspired looks for a self-assured woman mixed leopard prints and plaids, the fashion house’s trademark neutrals and a dab of pink. The collection aimed to break down the barriers between the power suit and the punk world that thrived in rebellion of it.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe use all those emblems of rebellion as emblems of power,\u201d creative director Ian Griffiths said backstage. \u201cThis is a woman who is saying, ‘Don’t mess with me.\u201d’<\/p>\n

This silhouette veered from long, full blanket skirts belted for shape, to form-fitting ruched dresses worn over stretch pants or a pencil trouser. Max Mara’s stronghold, the overcoat, united the looks, many with fringe along the sleeves. The brand dubbed it \u201cthey don’t mess with me coat.\u201d<\/p>\n

FENDI ON POINT<\/p>\n

And Gigi Hadid was back on the runway for Fendi a few hours later, donning a prim and pretty dress: a white shirt top that created a statuesque bust topping a long-sleeved pleated dress in a serious brown.<\/p>\n

That sense of purity and cleanness was echoed in scalloped white blouses with lace panels and embroidered details.<\/p>\n

Cinched waists and box shoulders gave definition to Karl Lagerfeld’s Fendi womenswear collection for next winter.<\/p>\n

The stand-out accessories were mini-capes — Fendi also called them shoulder slips — that topped off looks, a hedge against cold or rain. They were square-shouldered with a vinyl effect, mini puffer capes or rich fur.<\/p>\n

Pleats repeated themselves like a motif: pretty on silk dresses, hidden in the sides of overcoats, or forming a formal peplum under a belted suit jacket or atop a longer skirt.<\/p>\n

The double-F logo made a cameo, on off the shoulder dresses, fur coats and sporty mink scarfs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
