Landon Nordeman photographed all of the backstage drama at Milan Fashion Week on behalf of the Cut last weekend, capturing a surreal spectacle: hazmat suits and jewel-encrusted armor at Philipp Plein, dramatic red-stained lips at Bottega Veneta, and rainbow leather at Salvatore Ferragamo. There were mod trench coats at Sportmax, cool jeans dotted in gold, and colorful prints at Armani and Missoni.
