Milan Fashion Tour & Fashion Workshop, Milan

Overview

Discover the Milan Fashion District with an exclusive walking tour and fashion workshop. You’ll join an expert guide and learn from an Italian fashion designer in his atelier. This special combination allows you to experience the parts of Italian culture that not all tourists see, such as secrets about fabrics, personal styling, accessories and hats, shoes, style identification, and fashion drawings.

Your tour begins in Montenapoleone, the heart of Quadrilatero. Every corner of this area hides many ateliers and fashion boutiques, where, for decades, the best tailors in Milan lived and worked. Enjoy the beautiful architecture and heritage window displays as you stroll down the streets. Then hop on the historical center tramline and sit on the typical wooden benches. As you zip past pedestrians, keep an eye out for Milanesi’s street style and observe the understated elegance in every situation.

Next up is the chic Corso Como (keep an eye out for celebrities), where you’ll meet a fashion enfant prodige, a relevant spokesperson for the highest Italian fashion standards. By the end of your fashion workshop, you’ll create a garment for yourself! The process of creating an Italian piece of fashion will unfold before your eyes, starting with sketches. Then select a suitable material and the modeling stage and sew your piece together. Enjoy the sensations and emotions that come from discussing designs, touching fabrics, and choosing patterns. As you develop your garment, you’ll learn untold tricks of the trade.
