Chopin in the fashion salon

As part of the official schedule of Pianocity 2024, Galleria&Friends, in collaboration with the prestigious historical workshop Cilento 1780, presented “Nocturnes and Ballads of Chopin,” an exclusive concert played on piano by Elena Armmiraglio, an experienced pianist who graduated from the Bergamo Conservatory of Music under Ilonka Deckers.

Ugo Cilento welcomed the public to his Milanese workshop, as charming as the location on Via Riviera di Chiaia in Naples. Fashion, history and culture return as protagonists in the neighborhood that has always been synonymous with beauty in Milan. The historic place, reborn on the traces of the Antica Spezieria present in Brera since 1591 in front of the Botanical Garden, was also the ideal venue to celebrate the seventh international edition of the “Fascination of Plants Day” 2024, a time when all the Botanical Gardens of Europe virtually connect with each other under the banner of eco-sustainability. The theme of nature and medicinal plants is present in the silk collections designed exclusively by the Maison.).Three absolute masterpieces by Frédéric Chopin that resonated in the evocative location of Via Fiori Oscuri 13 in Milan, among those colors, scents and stylish details, which made Naples the historical capital of Italian elegance, coming back current in the haute couture collections that Cilento’s artisans still handcraft and think tailored for each customer.
