Milan – one of the fashion capitals of the world – has some knock-out, incredible, no-concept-or-cost-barred window displays! Walk along Via Monte Napoleone and Via della Spiga, the posh shopping streets, (especially during the holiday shopping season) and you will see imaginative, over-stated, grand, illuminated window dressings that make it worth the walk just for the show.

Are people dressing like this on the streets? No, they’re not. In the winter months, I see a LOT of fur coats, puffy down jackets and scarves on women and men, both.
