A few days to Milan woman fashion week (settimana della moda donna). Not only meeting celebrities, etc. (work for us paparazzi, lol) the main thing is catwalks of course, but the great majority of people have never seen them “live” in person, because you should be a journalist or someone working there.
If you want to come and see some catwalk, let me know marco@miamilan.com
It’s very exciting, because it’s something you always see on magazines and tv, it’s comparable to children for the first time entering the legendary San Siro stadium :), a big emotion really.
AC Milan Fly Emirates teamed up with EasyJet, the best low cost company.
The symbol of Milano is a woman… (Madonnina golden statue too :), protecting us from above).
It’s the best fashion week not only because it’s the world capital of fashion but also because, compared to London, Paris and New York, in Milan the weather and food are oh so much better ;)

Bianca Balti from near Milano, about being an Italian mamma:
“I don’t have much social life anymore”…thank God, lol
Sociability is the act for which the men warm to each other the spirit, just as, when it’s cold, you warm up each other’s body hugging each other. The more spiritual heat you have, the less you need of sociability: it therefore tends to increase when the spirit is reduced.”
(Schopenhauer)
it takes some time to understand life in Milan. It’s very selective. At first you may dislike it, but with time you appreciate it.
video about Milan and its solitude
she says things as: “Milano teaches you to be alone. An acrobat of melancholy. So true simple words. Everyone absorbed in their thoughts and the beauty of the place. Being alone becomes an art in Milano. There is you and the others: you can also meet them, but someday the noise of the people will annoy you. Then you carry your “luggage” on your own. If you accept this, Milano doesn’t “eat” you, it makes you grow. You won’t need anything anymore, without any need you’ll feel really free.. you, owner, master of your city”.
