When readying for the final evening of Milan Fashion Week, turning to Italy s reigning la dolce vita icon for inspiration is a foolproof approach. Just look to Emily Ratajkowski, whose cultivated abs and legs-for-days were outshone only by a tousled, breezily pinned updo that melded Sophia Loren s brand of bombshell glamour with a wash of millennial insouciance.
For last night s Green Carpet Fashion Awards, the model—spotted on runways like Dolce Gabbana and Versace earlier this week—celebrated sun-kissed, solar powered skin framed in saffron silk Roberto Cavalli that ensured attention was paid to her toned physique. Above the neck, a set of gilded and geometric earrings made the finishing touch to a hairstyle that was the stuff of Milanese romance. Sections of face-framing straight strands were left to spill from her center-parted crown—ideal for effortless behind-ear-tucks—while the remainder of Ratajkowski s dark brunette lengths were brushed back into a knot secured between the mid- and top- of the head.
The result was a casual interpretation of one of Loren s meticulous, high-drama updos, though further pared down with a simple swirl of pink blush and a sheer, glassy lip. Finishing out the city s bustling fashion week, it s a look that promised to travel well the next morning on the first flight out of Milan—and beyond.
