Jil Sander moves his fashion show to Paris Fashion Week
Camera Nazionale della Moda Italiana published the schedule for Milan Fashion Week Spring Summer 2013 (see here), but surprisingly, Jil Sander is missing.
I do not think is a mistake, I believe they moved to Paris.
Jil Sander and Paris sounds good, Jil Sander's elegance and simplicy is more appropriate for Paris.
PS: this is just a rumor

GIVENCHY Haute Couture Fall Winter 2012-2013 - Review by Rebecca Voight for Vogue.it
Riccardo Tisci has come up with an impeccable way to present contemporary couture; a reduced presentation of just 10 looks gives him the time to lavish incredible attention to design and handwork on each piece. And the static presentation, with plenty of well informed advisors around at Paris's Hôtel d'Evreux to explain the techniques, gives his audience the possibility to marvel at it all up close which is what couture is designed for after all. This season, Tisci explored the "opulence of the gypsy world"---the capes, fringe and passementerie favored by gypsy women in their fetish color combinations of red and black and brown and black. This he mixed with his idea of 1960s pure, ladylike lines in beige and a hint of Asia in short kimono stole-like sleeves and trains. Above all this was a collection which explored the decorative possibilities of leather in fringe, 3-D passementerie cut outs, basketweave with sheared mink---which Tisci calls "plucked" meaning it is cut-out and shaved into geometric to takes the place of embroidery
Lengths:
full length cape-like dresses with high thigh slits to show off a slice of high-booted leg and coat which form a bolero in the front or back and go full-length on the other side
Colors:
black; red and black; red and brown; black and brown; beige and fleshy mink
Fabrics:
nappa leather fringe; basketweave leather; leather passementerie, shaved "plucked" mink lace; exposed red crystals and crystals "caged" in wool/cashmere; mixed beaded fringe worked in gradated color going from beige to dark tobacco; beaded velvet; mink; crepe
Shapes:
a shawl in leather passementerie and shoulder to floor nappa fringe becomes a dress; a backless halter dress makes its own train with all the passementerie inside the train; a short mink stole crossed in back looks like a cropped sweatshirt in front and is incorporated with a simple wool floor-length skirt with an elaborate passementerie apron train back; passementerie inside kimono sleeves; coats cropped in the front or back with go full length on the other side over sheaths and are covered with elaborate mink lace, red and coral jewels which are exposed or "caged"; a beaded velvet jump suit with incorporated open toe boots with scarf like knit stretch over the bust ending in beaded fringe i topped with a sweatshirt in extra-long mixed beaded and gradated fringe with toreador passementerie in beads over the shoulders
Accessories:
huge aviator sunglasses with gradated lenses; basketweave leather high-thigh boots with open toes and kitten heel leather sandals with leather passementerie trim

GIVENCHY Haute Couture Fall Winter 2012-2013 - Review by Nicole Phelps for Style.com
Riccardo Tisci brought together dueling impulses in his Fall Couture collection: On the one hand, he returned to the simple lines of the sixties, when Hubert de Givenchy was at the center of the Paris scene. On the other, he riffed on the look of gypsies, specifically the gypsies you encounter in present-day southern Italy, where he's from. The haute and the street—it's the kind of mix this designer loves.
After seven years at the house, the Tisci codes are instantly recognizable, and copied nearly as quickly. Beaded fringes will be multiplying at the fast-fashion brands as quickly as machines can string them. Here at the mother ship, of course, the beads were painstakingly strung by hand, red and black ones in a pattern that together created a mosaic design to match the embroidery on the top of a floor-length cape. It was the collection's pièce de résistance, and under it, the model wore a jumpsuit made from jersey on top and beaded velvet on bottom, complete with attached open-toe, kitten-heel booties.
Beyond It factor, which he has in spades, technique is the thing at Tisci's Givenchy. The black nappa fringe on a dress boasting intricate leather embroidery extended all the way to the ground, and a halter-neck gown came with a built-in cape that was obsessively embroidered with sequins not on its outside but on its inside.
You felt like Tisci was fighting his own impulses with a pair of nude-colored dresses that featured sheared mink bodices and narrow, unadorned wool and cashmere skirts. And yet that was intriguing, too. It's more than likely that his signatures—a lavishly beaded and fringed cardigan that shaded from cappuccino at the neckline to deep espresso at its hem, for instance—will be the collection's hot tickets. But those restrained column gowns pointed in a new direction, one that's worth exploring further.
