We follow Zoe Saldana, who starred in the short film The Legend of the Red Glove, as we try to unravel the mystery of the magical appeal of red in the Milanese context.
Not many people know that Zoe Saldana, who was born in Jersey, calls Italy her second home. And she has several reasons for this. The first and probably the main one is Marco Perego. Italian painter and sculptor, husband of Zoe. This couple has a very remarkable relationship: firstly, they got married a month after they met, and Marco even took his wife's surname and now bears the name Marco Perego Saldana. But Saldana also reciprocates her husband's love, often visits Milan and even starred in an advertisement for the main local bitter, which has a very solid history - he is a whole year older than Italy itself.
All in all, Saldana starred in The Legend of Red Hand. The short film was directed by Stefano Sollima. (For reference - last year Paolo Sorrentino was invited by the director of the Red Diaries series called "Killer in Red" and branded advertising, and Clive Owen was chosen for the main role, but this is not the limit for the Milan brand - in the 80s, advertising for they were shot by Federico Fellini himself). It won't take long to view it.
Now about how much red reflects the Italian style. If you look at Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II from the square in front of the Duomo, on the left, right at the entrance, you will see the Camparino bar, opened by the Campari family and still owned by the brand. Your search for red bitter drinks in Milan is best started there. On March 1, Moscow opens its own branded bar (on the site of Time Out Bar) - with a slightly more modern interior, but also in red tones. So what about red?
The main character of the film, the charming photographer Mia Park travels the world to unravel the secret - who is the Master of the Red Hand. We decided to pick up a mythical bartender who hides his face, but is famous for hypnotically beautiful red gloves, several looks from the last men's fashion week.
Raf Simons has everything the Red Hand needs. However, we found other examples confirming the attractiveness of scarlet gloves on men in older collections.
But let's move on to the women's wardrobe in the context of hypnotic Italian red. At the premiere of The Legend of the Red Glove short from the Red Diaries series, Zoe Saldana wore a stunning scarlet dress by Alberta Ferretti.
We decided to pick up some more impressive red kits from the just ended fashion week in Milan, the hometown of the famous Italian red bitter.
