Antonio Faravelli exhibits his wines in fashionable Naples
Great turnout for the event of Galleria&Friends, the network of antique stores in Milan that enhances under the cultural aspect the Italian brands of excellence, organized on the occasion of Fashion Week with Ugo Cilento, patron of the historic Neapolitan tailor shop Cilento 1780, Anna Portinaro heir of the brand Krumiri Rossi since 1878 and Antonio Faravelli owner of Golf&Wine since 1895.
Appointment in the historic Neapolitan atelier at 13 Fiori Oscuri Street, which expresses Italian sartorial excellence, landed last year in Milan in the prestigious premises of the Antica Farmacia di Brera, after a long and passionate search for a location that could accommodate such an ancient company with a great tradition. So’next to the Pharmacy’s memorabilia, original furnishings and antique objects owned by the historic Atelier now find their place, a magical setting for the brand’s iconic garments: from ties to scarves, scarves to pullovers, shoes to suit fabrics, shirts to tailored jackets and accessories for men and women. The owner welcomed the large audience
recounting with passion and expertise the secrets of Neapolitan elegance, interviewed by Elisabetta Invernici, directed by Alberto Oliva. Providing a counterpoint to the interview was the performance of two actors as Matilde Serao (Silvana Filippelli) and Oscar Wilde (Gianfilippo Falsina Lamberti), who gave voice to late 19th-century Naples through two champions of elegance and style who actually frequented Naples in that era. The evening opened with the reading of the article, published on October 7, 1897 in Il Mattino, in which Matilde Serao announces the arrival in Naples of the famous dandy, a pretext to relive the atmosphere of late 19th century Naples so well described in “Il ventre di Napoli”. Fragrances and stylish details were enhanced by the bubbles of the award-winning brand from the ’Oltrepò pavese; of which Antonio Faravelli confirms himself as an indomitable international ambassador.
