MILAN, Italy — Natasa Cagalj's Milanese debut as womenswear creative director at Ports was much anticipated. The show was fast, moderninst, androgynous and came with a sensual sense of unraveling. It looked like the mannish tailoring which was the bulk of the collection was slashed and then peeled away from the body. The idea worked, not least because the execution was technically masterful. But the overall aesthetic felt derivative. Let's hope Cagalj forgets about Céline pretty soon.
