You may know Florence for being the capital of Italy’s Tuscan region. You might know it for its renaissance art, historical architecture or its beautiful vineyards. But we’re here to tell you about one particular masterpiece –the great boutique. Or should we rather say, boutiques; the best niche ones in Italy, in fact.
Glass of wine in the green pastures of the countryside. Gelato in the bustling city among the great buildings. Meanwhile, why not make a pit-stop-shop by some of these exciting fashion wonderlands? As for where to find these designer gems, AiSPi has you covered!
Malloni
Your first stop in Florence must be Malloni. The avant-garde collections play with the contrast. As a matter of fact, once the brand said “white is the impertinent side of black”. Their philosophy: minimalism to the maximum. So, they use sharp and clean edges to bring a monochromatic look to life.
While Malloni might appreciate balance, we may have lost ours after witnessing the beauty of its boutique. The modern outlet features warm, inviting light and edgy decor. All in all, it is the perfect place to shop timeless hand-crafted looks.
