5 things to do in Milan this weekend

The first weekend in Milan after returning, but also the first fashion week of the year. While many of the fashion-themed parties and cocktails will take place behind closed doors, the public can experience the atmosphere of the fashion week throughout the city center by witnessing the chaotic traffic, models running from one part of the city to another, and the best glittering outfits coloring the fashion streets. Even if you won't be strolling between showrooms and crowded front rows for two days, you'll have plenty to do.

So here are 5 things to do in Milan this weekend.

To Eat – All’Origine

An extremely chic Italian restaurant, newly arrived in the heart of Porta Romana under the guidance of Chef Fabio Titone. Its terrace is its added value (wait until summer to see how many will queue up for dinner), but the real strength, of course, is the seafood menu, which includes the novelty of marinated fish, but above all, the brunch option on weekends. Yes, please.

Viale Monte Nero 20

To Chill – B Cafè

The location is well-known, a place away from the flow of fashionistas looking for an easy selfie. But the atmosphere? B Cafè is the laid-back bar where business people, stylish Milanese, and a diverse crowd gather for an easy and carefree aperitif. And during fashion week, we all really need that.

Via San Maurilio, 20

To Explore – "Tailoring School. A Journey Into Education" @ Triennale

Next Friday, the esteemed brand Kiton and Triennale will present an exhibition open until the end of fashion week. The exhibition aims to celebrate and enhance the excellence of Made in Italy tailoring. The exhibition will bring the real life inside Kiton's School of High Tailoring in Naples with students and teachers in front of the audience.

Viale Alemagna, 6

To Shop – Casa Amar

A carpet store that has already captured the attention of international magazines, besides being next to the headquarters of nss magazine, Casa Amar is a shopping experience like the old days. Beyond their truly beautiful products, visiting the store is like entering one of those old-fashioned shops (the decor is modern, of course) where you can talk face-to-face with the owners and truly understand their appreciation for craftsmanship.

Via Pestalozzi, 4

To Club - C2C presents James Blake (DJ Set) + special guests

2024 kicks off with a bang at Teatro Principe with a DJ set by the legendary James Blake on Friday, the 12th. And this time, there will also be special guests who will remain secret and promise to surprise everyone. One of the most interesting locations in Milan (also because it's almost in the center), Teatro Principe will welcome crowds of eager fans – and it seems that tickets have already become a rare commodity.
