Genoa


Owned by one of Genoa's best fashion eyes, this colourful little shop is a two-decades historic centre veteran. Labels are diverse, from Italian hard-hitters such as Marni to some far more affordable small international concerns, and the mix is united by a unique combination of colour and texture that seems right at home in the Ligurian landscape.
