The opening night of MBFWLJ was a bit different than you would expect and that is what made this night unique.
There were no usual fashion shows, but the scent of fashion was in the air all around us.

The highlight of the evening was Gattinoni’s fashion performance that left a lasting impression on the visitors. The prestigious Italian brand Gattinoni became part of Italy’s cultural heritage in 2009 and has dressed the biggest icons of film, theatre, music and art in its 70 year history.
