Max Mara Resort 2022
This evening’s Max Mara resort show, inspired by Capote’s voyage to the less-traveled-to island, was the first-ever big-ticket fashion show held here. The precise location was a castellated hotel named the Mezzatorre, once a villa owned by Luchino Visconti, whose position on a promontory overlooking its own turquoise-watered, parasol-lined private bay would make any film director itch to shout, “Action.”
