Milano: Aspesi's Tribute to Franco Moschino


Aspesi’s tribute to Franco Moschino.  During fashion week the windows of the boutiques on the Via Montenapoleone made special displays for the international fashion brigade.  The Aspesi window paid tribute to the late Franco Moschino whose 60th birthday would have fallen on February 27th.
