barraeople1Wow, Pitti Fashion in Florence is started today and the city is in caos!
People everywhere, young charming men walking in the streets, special events, photographers, celebrities on the red carpet of Fortezza da Basso general quarter, and the sartorialist (he didn’t post photos on his blog, yet, but I’m sure he will very soon!).

This year there is the Pitti People project wants to “give a face” to the visitors, buyers and journalist, and see what fashion people wear during the fair, with the help of phographers who will post photos on blogs and common areas inside the Fortezza da Basso.

New talents are involved in the project of Who is on next (cooperation Pitti Immagine, Alta Roma, Uomo Vogue).

And, the very special guest of this Pitti Uomo is “Undercover” of the designer Jun Takahashi who will present his menswear collection S/S 2010 in the Giardino di Boboli, on june 17 evening.

A great event in Florence, right 2 minutes walk from Mr My Resort B&B and Relais Grand Tour B&B.
