Fashion week in Milan, and the eyes of the international fashion jet-set are set, not firmly set on the catwalks, but on each other, as they dress to be seen and – and snapped. Photographed by Martin Parr, models, front-row guests and journalists alike are as transfixed on their smartphone screens as they are the clothes, captured amidst the bustle that surrounds the main events.
