The Milan fashion district (lots of stores and show rooms of world famous fashion designers)
The Quadrilatero della Moda is Milano's high fashion shopping district, where the most famous Italian – and other – designers have their smartest shops. The four prime streets are Via Montenapoleone, Via della Spiga, via Manzoni, and Corso Venezia, lined with a succession of windows displaying the latest designs and fashion trends. This is one of the most famous designer shopping streets in the world, right up there with the Avenue des Champs Élysées in Paris, and you'll see all the best names here: Prada, Armani, Fendi, Valentino, Missoni, Trussardi, and the rest. Remember that casual browsing inside the shops is not welcome unless you dress the part. Most tourists simply browse the eye-catching windows, where the displays are as dramatic as the fashions. Each autumn, Milan designers – the cream of the international fashion houses – send their top fashion models out to strut down the catwalks at Milano Moda Donna, Milan Women's Fashion Week. It's the highlight of the fashion year, and although you can't get into the shows without credentials, it seems as though everyone in Milan becomes a fashion model for the week; it's a great time for people watching.
