I was also wondering if women in Italy wear more solid colored tops and dresses/skirts or if patterns and colors are suitable and blend in?
I will be going in October if that is helpful.
Thank you,
Julie

They wear both in general Europeans dress well.
You will see everything, wear what is comfortable to you.

Julie, the younger women (meaning 20-30's) wear what we do here in the states. You will see the jeans and tshirts women, to the chanel/gucci women.
Dress what you feel most comfortable in. The more you try to "blend in" the more you will stick out.
I am a casual person, and when I was there last March I wore jeans, solid dark colored turtleneck, a camel colored suede jacket and boots. I felt comfortable and didn't really notice if I looked different or the same as the other women.
Also remember you can buy local clothes if you feel you didn't bring the "Right item".
