Although we haven’t seen him on the Milan catwalk for ages, we know exactly who the Marni man is. His name is Boris and he’s a one-time stock broker (hence the wodge of dough) who dabbles in abstractionist sculpture in a Walter Gropius-designed three-bed villa just outside Wiesbaden. Boris goes proper mental for Marni, the bri-nylony bits and elastic-banded sleeves and dodgy knits and elephant seventies collars. And he’ll wear it head to toe, socks, sandals and all.
