Milan Style Journey
Every month a useful suggestion from StyleInMi, the only service
offering you a style journey into the heart of Milan conceived by
Fabio Sbranchella and especially created for men in discovery
of pure Milanese style.
Although Milan is known as a
city that jealously hides its secrets,
with a little bit of patience and
curiosity, sooner or later you too will
happen to chance upon them. One
of these is the “Antica Barbieria Colla”
in via Gerolamo Morrone 3.
Behind the house of famous writer
Alessandro Manzoni, author of ‘The
Betrothed”, you will find this truly
captivating venue. Here, thanks to its
walls papered with photographs of
famous people, the babble of voices and
the seductive scent of its lotions (created
ad hoc) but, above all, the irresistible
charm of maestro Franco Bompieri,
you will experience 110 years of
history. ‘An artisan of elegance’, as he likes to
define himself, a barber and a writer, he is a
unique, indescribable individual capable of
winning over just about anyone simply by
shaking their hand. Since 1966, together with
his skilled staff, he has devoted himself to
the business of beards and hair, combining
know-how, professionalism and courtesy
to offer patrons a unique, unrepeatable
experience, an absolute ‘must’ for anyone
visiting Milan.
He is assisted by his charming daughter
Francesca who manages the venue’s line
of innovative, artisanal products with
graciousness and flair.
Don’t leave Milan, before indulging in this
one-of-a-kind, old-world experience.
