Ciao a tutti and wel<strong>com</strong>e back to Milano Moda Donna!<br />
We’re pleased to offer you once again our Milan Fashion Week<br />
Survival’s Guide—a light-hearted, insider’s look at all that our city<br />
and this exciting week has to offer. Here you’ll find tips from Milanese<br />
locals on the best places to eat, drink and shop, as well as highlights<br />
on fashion week and news in Milan.<br />
Since taking over as President of the Camera Nazionale dell Moda in<br />
2015, I’ve set forth four main areas on which to focus - sustainability,<br />
young talent, digitalization, and hospitality—each of which are<br />
materializing in new ways this season.<br />
Firstly we’re extremely honored to wel<strong>com</strong>e Matteo Renzi, our<br />
esteemed Prime Minister, at a lunch in honor of the opening of fashion<br />
week. It will be an event during which the Italian fashion and the<br />
Institutions will get together to celebrate one of the branch that better<br />
represents creativity, tradition, avant-garde and one of the most solid<br />
and significant economic asset of our country.<br />
As regards to sustainability, together with a permanent working<br />
group that involves over 10 important brands, we have developed a<br />
strategic program to achieve in 4 years and we are now working on<br />
the use of chemical substances issue. In terms of new talents, we are<br />
supporting young labels in a myriad of new ways, including Fashion<br />
Lab, a new UniCredit-sponsored fashion mentoring program for over<br />
19 new brands (see pages 4 for more details on our young talents).<br />
As for hospitality, well, it’s our main mission to warmly host you and<br />
hopefully entertain you a bit along the way. Enjoy reading this ironic<br />
guide! See you around the shows, the presentations and all the<br />
exciting events of Fashion Week!<br />
Kind Regards,<br />
