Italy is a country where art is the way of life and an essential component of everything that surrounds us.
Milan is a city of historic buildings and is dominated by the wonderful Gothic Cathedral and along with DaVinci’s Last Supper, fashion is one of Milan’s biggest draws.
For the confirmed shopholic, Milan offers one of the most concentrated shopping experiences in all Europe and is renowned for its’ position as a centre piece of high fashion.
Milan, is the city of details
There is so much hidden beauty in the Italian city of Milan… Details in tastes, in services, in people kindness, in fashion, in style, in deco and design, in ideas and many many more that you have to be very curious and well educated about the city to be able to make your own exploration.
Milan Fashion Week 2015
Milan has been a host of Fashion Week since 1958.
The city is home to some of the biggest designers, like Georgio Armani, so it should be no surprise that the fashion world descends upon Milan for a twice-annual Fashion Week.
It’s here that Italians get their reputation for being some of the best-dressed people on the planet and walking down the street is often like being seated on a catwalk.
Milan’s Fashion Week includes more than 40 shows each season. It’s really a huge number, but that shouldn’t come as a surprise if you know that all major fashion houses that make the world’s fashion scene represent their collections here.
Also, almost all major Italian labels are based in Milan: Gucci, Armani, Missoni, Prada, Versace, Dolce&Gabbana, Moschino, Trussardi, Etro, Miu Miu… Real fashion paradise!
Milan Street Style
Italians are experts in tailoring, craftsmanship and unusual fabrics. Fashion for Italians is almost a national passion! They are a nation that cherishes outward appearance, so you will never see them having a “bad style” day.
They are always put-together, even when they’re just heading to a grocery store. Even the Milanese police uniforms are designed by the Italian fashion genius Giorgio Armani?
Milan Fashion Week street style is full of colors and patterns. Italians mix these wildly, but always with polished and refined finish.
Street style is about mixing high and low, but in Milan, that’s not the case. Milanese love to mix high with higher! When we say that, we mean head-to-toe designer pieces… fresh from the runway!
In Milan, it’s almost a tradition now: show-goers get their total look straight off the runway and sport it immediately after the show. So if you’re not that lucky to have a front row seat, a look on Milan’s streets can be a good enough replacement
