Why the Italians are style gurus




In the dizzying maze of sparkling white shirts, moccasins and Ray-Bans, the tome's leading stars (almost 100 Italians) photographed in familiar spaces, in the company of large families, friends and dogs, are symbolic of full-bodied modernity earned from old-world values and culture.

The delightful portraits take you on a visual tour of Milan and Rome's austerely chaotic homes, offices and artiste spaces, ice-caped Cortina to the overwhelming villas in Palermo, a ritzy family yacht of Lorenzo and Carla Moncada, and Brianza's lush countryside varied locations, each stamped with a unified spirit that's intrinsically Italiano.

The cream cushions with paisley motifs that offset a sprawling maroon sofa in Spinola's home in Rome, is once again a now redundant reminder of Italy's connection with India.

Available at: Strand bookstall, Fort.
For: Rs 5,000
