DO FASHION IN STYLE, WITH AN ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS TRIP TO MILAN FASHION WEEK
Every February the style cognoscenti descend upon Milan for the highlight of the fashion calendar, Milan Fashion Week. It’s the most important date in fashion – and with REDpass, it could be in your diary.
Since elegance is everything, it’s not the kind of event you can do on a shoestring. Seats for the top shows are like gold dust, and the after-show parties, where the fashionistas rub shoulderpads with top models and designers, are notoriously difficult to get into. Without the right connections, that is.
Of course, none of this will be a problem for you, if you are our REDpass winner. Because you and a companion will be travelling under the auspices of a man whose name is synonymous with fashion in Milan: Giorgio Armani.
It promises to be a fabulous, and incredible, experience.
