Gucci, Missoni, Prada, Ferragamo, Armani, Dolce&Gabbana...Who doesn't know these names? Italians are on the top of the world again. They not only have great wine, delicious coffee, amazing food but what's most important for us - world-leading fashion designers. And that last thing is a subject of new exhibition in Somerset House in London.
The exhibition will be a celebration of the six best fashion houses in Italy showing the stories behind their successes, best moments from their advertising campaigns and big archives of the images from their collections.
The exhibition will run from 1st July until 14th August 2011. It's curated by Nastro Azzuro and Colin McDowell, one of my favourite fashion writers.
