Serene days and campaign preps on Gran Canaria

A couple of days ago we escaped the Swiss winter and travelled to the beautiful Spanish island of Gran Canaria where I am preparing the photo shoot of our spring summer collection campaign.

It was the first time and we were so amazed by the beautiful and many luxury European Made shoes. We found a couple of Italian manufacturers with an outstanding quality and authentic brand history - most of them are Italian family businesses.

After a good sleep in our cozy chalet-style suite with wooden beams , cozy blankets and a fireplace we woke...

My favorite restaurant in Milan

My favorite restaurant in Milan

My favorite restaurant in Milan is Da Giacomo in has a beautiful Art Deco interior and a great service by a welcoming and professional staff that is always around whenever you need them and still give enough privacy.
