MILANO - Fashion Week

Hotel and Restaurant - The Bulgari Hotel. No, I did not go away to the country for the weekend...I am having Sunday brunch in the restaurant of the Bulgari Hotel, right bang in the center of Milan. It is the hot spot to eat and to stay. The locals at lunch included, Contessa Marta Marzotto and her beautiful grand-daughter, Contessa Beatrice Borromeo, gossip editor, Silvana Giacobini and socialite, Katherine Mondadori. The hotel, a tribute from the Italian jeweler to the world of luxury, is the epitome of Milanese chic. It was designed by Antonio Citterio who created both the building, with its elegant high ceilings, granite columns and original 1700s facade, and all of the contemporary furniture within. It is divine, a real haven in hectic Milan. During fashion week, hotels guests included; royal photographer, Mario Testino, ex model and stylist, L'Wren Scott, without Sir Mick, Nicky Hilton and Kylie Minogue, who was a guest of Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana.
