Meet The New Look Milanese Home Of Louis Vuitton

The reopening of Louis Vuitton's iconic Milan store unveils a new cultural destination, bringing with it high- level gastronomy and an entire floor dedicated to its Home Collections
From Fashion Week to Teatro alla Scala and the cobbled streets that lead to Via Montenapoleone and the Duomo, Milan is always a good idea. But with the reopening of Louis Vuitton's historic Via Montenapoleone 2 destination, a summer escape is even more alluring.
Following three years of restoration work on Palazzo Taverna, including the store that has undergone something of an architectural revolution, the location has become a cornerstone of culture, design and gastronomy. The renovations pay tribute to the city of Milan, Milanese tradition and the architecture of Lombardy, with each detail expressing the decades-old ties between Louis Vuitton and Italy.
The architectural work was undertaken by the legendary Peter Marino, who has nearly doubled the floor area. Elegance resides in the details and in the materials used: all the carpentry was done locally, while the stone – of which there are 15 different varieties – was cut in workshops in Lombardy. Contemporary art is everywhere, from the central atrium to the staircase, and furniture comprises Italianate pieces each an emblem of modern design.
Beyond the aesthetics, the Louis Vuitton Home Collections has a dedicated space on the second floor, featuring its five lines, including the new Signature Collection, just launched at Milan Design Week. But, perhaps the biggest draw of all is the gastronomy. The space welcomes Da Vittorio Café Louis Vuitton, designed as a beautiful jardin d'hiver, which opens alongside DaV by Da Vittorio Louis Vuitton – the first restaurant concept in Italy for the Maison. Serving only Italian dishes, from antipasti to osso bucco, the Louis Vuitton Monogram present across many dishes assures that you've come to the right place.

Who is Khaby Lame? World-famous TikToker detained by ICE in the US

US immigration agents detained and later allowed the "voluntary departure" of the world's most-followed TikToker, Khaby Lame, after he "overstayed" his visa, authorities said Saturday. "US Immigration and Customs Enforcement detained Seringe Khabane Lame, 25, a citizen of Italy, June 6, at the Harry Reid International Airport, Las Vegas, Nevada for immigration violations," the agency said in a statement to AFP. Lame entered the United States on April 30 and "overstayed the terms of his visa," the statement said of the Friday detention, adding that he was released the same day. The Italian national, who is a UNICEF goodwill ambassador and has a following of more than 162 million on TikTok, "has since departed the US". Lame had not immediately posted publicly about the incident as of Saturday afternoon. Since taking power in January, US President Donald Trump has delivered on campaign promises to tighten immigration controls and carry out a mass deportation drive — aspects of which have been challenged in US courts. Lame holds top spot on the wildly popular TikTok social media app, with 162.2 million followers and has risen to fame for his short silent videos mocking the convoluted tutorials and tips that abound on the internet. He punctuates his videos with a trademark gesture — palms turned towards the sky, accompanied by a knowing smile and wide eyes — as he offers his own simple remedies. The idea for his content came to him while wandering around the housing project where his family lived in Chivasso, near Turin, after losing his factory mechanic's job in March 2020. His posts took off — helping him gross an estimated $16.5 million through marketing deals with companies in the period between June 2022 and September 2023, according to Forbes.

Armani Celebrates 25 Years Of Its Ultra-Elegant Home Collections

As Armani/Casa turns 25, we celebrate the Italian maison that has been enhancing our homes for a quarter of a century This year marks 25 years since Italian designer Giorgio Armani expanded his brand to include Armani/Casa, exploring design and aesthetics beyond the boundaries of fashion, forever injecting homes with his impeccable style. Over the last two and a half decades, myriad iconic design pieces have found their way into our lives. Perhaps most enduring is the Logo Lamp. Initially designed back in 1982 when Giorgio Armani needed a desk light for his office in Milan, it became an instant staple of the collection when Armani/Casa officially launched in 2000, with many different iterations reimagining the classic to today. Much has taken place since then, with the brand expanding into new areas, such as the Interior Design Studio launched in 2004, Armani/Dada in 2008, which designs functional kitchen interiors, and Armani/Roca, which focuses on design concepts for bathrooms. The Armani/Casa Exclusive Wallcoverings Collection also launched in 2014. And, of course, not forgetting the 2010 opening of Armani Hotel in Dubai's Burj Khalifa District – quickly followed by Armani Hotel near Via Monte Napoleone in Milan the following year; both beacons of refinement drenched in Armani's signature minimalism. In 2017, the brand opened the world's largest retail store in Corso Venezia, and more recently, the Maison launched its first ever collection which is entirely dedicated to the outdoors. From Milan to the world, the brand now has Armani/Casa stores in major cities from Paris and Los Angeles to Tokyo and Shanghai, making it a global success story in its own right. To mark the quarter-century celebration of Armani/Casa – and the 50th anniversary of the era-defining fashion label – the designer launched an all-new collection entitled Oriental Inks. Debuting at Salone del Mobile 2025 in April, and inspired by East Asian artistry and antique craftsmanship, it features intricate, hand-painted pieces and embroidered furnishings – from beds to armchairs and desks – designed with his signature and unparalleled eye for detail. Having just turned 90, there are celebrations all round for Giorgio Armani – a life lived by his own design. With Armani/Casa, it's as if he's built a home to hold those memories.
