Milan Fashion Week: Top Highlights
For the penultimate week of the bi-annual event that is fashion month, the fashion industry descended upon Milan for a streamlined schedule of shows that began with Prada and closed with Gucci.
Model Irina Shayk (@irinashayk) who walked for designers Donatella Versace and Daniel Lee generated the highest Media Value (£620K) for the week. American Fashion Influencer Olivia Palermo (@oliviapalermo) took the second spot; her series of suited looks garnered £583K in Media Value. British Vogue’s (@britishvogue) in-depth coverage of the most impressive catwalk looks pulled in £554K in Media Value while Italian Influencer Elisa Maino’s (@la_mainoo) #MFW looks featuring Italian designers such as MSGM generated £554K in Media Value.

At phasellus mauris ornare posuere consequat. Quam lacus curabitur consectetur amet libero tortor eu volutpat sit. Venenatis eget aenean in enim.”

The clear front runner for the week was Versace. Designer Donatella Versace re-imagined the fashion house’s classic jungle print dress, popularised by Jennifer Lopez who wore it nearly two decades ago at the 2000 Grammys red carpet. It’s, therefore, no surprise that Lopez (@jlo) herself was the brand’s top Influencer. Lopez and the dress that inspired the creation of Google Images amassed £5.7M in Media Value for Versace.

Entrepreneur and wife of rapper Gucci Mane, Keyshia Kaoir (@keyshiakaoir) produced the highest performing (by Media Value) content for Gucci’s Spring Summer show (£414K). This finding comes off the heels of news that the rapper and luxury label have joined forces, Mane becoming the face of the brands SS20 campaign.

Next up is Prada. Across 13 posts, South Korean singer Sunmi Lee’s (@miyayeah) content contributed £2.2M towards Prada’s Media Value. Out of these her post featuring rapper ASAP Rocky and DJ Soo Joo raked in the Highest Media suggesting consumers delight in content that celebrates both fashion and music.

This was the first show after dearly departed Karl Lagerfeld’s final collection. Italian Fashion Influencer Chiara Ferragni lived up to her 2012 title as Forbes’ Top Influencer during Milan Fashion Week. A singular post from Ferragni showcasing a pink Fendi ensemble generated ÂŁ508K for Fendi.

Cannes Lions has always been where the industry takes stock, not just of the work, but of where the money is going and why. This year, creator marketing will be front and centre. Not because it’s new, but because the ground underneath it is shifting in ways that are forcing brands to fundamentally rethink how they plan, measure and value creator partnerships.Â
Here are the three topics we expect to define the week.
The top 100 media and entertainment brands across video streaming, audio streaming, and content creation generated $63.4B in total Earned Media Value in 2025, up +7.0% YoY. Growth is uneven across sub-sectors, video streaming surged while audio streaming declined sharply, platform dynamics are shifting fast, and a handful of breakout brands are rewriting what influence looks like in entertainment.
TikTok grew +70.2% YoY and is rapidly closing the gap on YouTube as the dominant entertainment influence platform. YouTube remains #1 at $32.6B but declined -11.3%, while Instagram grew +4.4% to $13.3B. Facebook nearly doubled to $7.3B (+98.9%), making media and entertainment one of the few categories where four platforms are genuinely competing for share.
