Italian nights at Hallwylska

Who doesn´t want inspiration from a number of the best Italian fashion designers in a cozy environment? Well – it is very possible now with the exhibition “Notti Italiane” at the Hallwylska museum in Stockholm.

The exhibition is focused on Italian fashion after 1950 and includes designers like Versaci, Armani, Valentino, Capucci and Moschini. All the dresses have been worn, many of them by celebrities like Lady Diana Spencer, Naomi Campbell, Jacqueline Kennedy, Linda Evangelista and Gina Lollobrigida.

All garments come from the collection of Fondazione Sartiranas and the exhibition is a result of a collaboration between the Hallwylska museum and the Italian institute of culture.

With the environment of the Hallwylska palace this is really an amazing exhibition. It is cleverly set up and definitely an exhibition not to be missed in Stockholm right now. The exhibition is complemented by seminars about Italian fashion as well as Italian film and music (other locations). The exhibition is open from May 7 and all information is available at www.hallwylskamuseet.se (in En and Swe).
