00:00 One thing that ties Milanese style is that everything is very polished.

00:04 People will never go out in the street with their PJs.

00:08 For me, Milanese style is that of a very stylish old lady.

00:11 I think that style must be functional first of all,

00:23 because I see a lot of ostentation at the expense of the function itself,

00:27 which is the one of the clothes.

00:29 The stripes are my fetish, I like them a lot,

00:33 I think they are fascinating because they usually only contain two colors,

00:38 so it's a very narrow choice of colors.

00:41 This dynamism in colors gives me order.

00:44 The scarf was inspired by a character by Accattone di Pasolini,

00:50 the protagonist's friend.

00:52 He was a very gruff character, I liked his rebellious nature.

00:57 When I was young, I was an Olympic swimmer.

01:00 I did the Olympic Games in Montreal in 1976.

01:04 And now, after 45 years, I am a model.

01:08 Today is really warm, so I decided to dress up in this way.

01:12 I wear a classic shoes by Chanel, these are a gift from my son Aldo,

01:18 and my gold chain bag by Louis Vuitton.

01:23 Here, the elegance in the street is really high.

01:27 I love Milano women's style because they are always basic,

01:32 but they have a touch of chic, they are always well refined.

01:37 I think my personal aesthetic is very Nigerian auntie in the 90s,

01:49 but a little bit punk, and I dress very nostalgic to my parents,

01:54 to my mother, she used to wear a ton of Miss Sixty, a ton of big glasses.

01:58 So I kind of dress like a younger version of my mom.

02:01 Everything I'm wearing is actually thrifted, except for the shoes,

02:04 and rings and grills and earrings, all from different places.

02:07 And the glasses are, wait, I don't remember, Leo Martini.

02:11 I think Milano is fun because there's different aesthetics.

02:14 Anytime I get ready to go out, it's like, "Oh, I'm going to wear this."

02:17 Anytime I get ready to go out, it's like, "Who am I going to be today?

02:20 What am I going to wear?" So I feel like Milanese style is like that,

02:23 having fun, getting dressed up every day.

02:25 I'm a fashion designer, and I'm from Venice.

02:32 When you move to Milan, you have to build your own dream,

02:35 and this is a very good place to do it.

02:37 That is also why my brand is deeply inspired by Milan.

02:41 The brand is called Vitelli.

02:42 This next collection, for example, it's inspired by the Northern Seoul scene.

02:46 In the Northern Seoul scene, there was a motto, which was "Keep the Faith,"

02:49 and that's what we're going to say in this collection too, because we need it.

02:54 Every day I come here to this street where the studio is with all my team,

02:59 and I think this is very important for this city,

03:01 to build small but real groups of people creating together and sharing the environment.

03:14 My look today is inspired by an old family photo,

03:17 where my father and his brothers were all dressed the same,

03:19 and they had exactly my look, with short pants and high-heeled socks.

03:24 This set of vintage Gilet Fushers is from a vintage shop in my city,

03:28 and it's very nice because it's in stripes, and I'm a big fan of stripes.

03:31 And I'm wearing my pin, which I make in my studio, and is part of my production.

03:42 When I build an outfit, I start with an item that I'm obsessed with,

03:46 like bags, shoes, a new pair of trousers, whatever.

03:50 I'm just obsessed with something, and I play with it.

03:53 My glasses are Gucci. I love them because they're super '70s.

03:56 These coordinates of trousers and sandals are Dolce & Gabbana.

04:01 It comes from my mom, and it's supposed to be high-waisted, but I love the waist vibe.

04:05 The bag is Prada. I love this bag because it's out of my comfort zone.

04:09 My comfort zone is very futuristic, and I think that I'm old-school and a bit freaky.

04:14 What inspires my style? I love street style.

04:23 I'm not too classic, so I always like to have something sporty or colorful.

04:29 In Milan, everyone has a style.

04:31 Either it can be the old lady at the cafe bar or the girl going to uni.

04:35 People like to dress well.

04:39 Italians in general are very passionate and loud and fun,

04:44 so I feel like Milan fashion represents that to the next level.

04:50 I feel like Milan fashion represents that to the next level.
