In the first episode of the itinerary on fashion in Milan we explore the reasons for this Milanese excellence which has its roots in the style of the inhabitants. The elegance of the clothes is reflected in that of the buildings, as evidenced by the Bagatti Valsecchi Museum, or in the dynamism of its events, such as Fashion Week.

In the first episode of the itinerary on architecture in Milan we discover one of the most characteristic styles of Milan, the "Liberty" style.

First we explore it in the Porta Venezia district, and then we appreciate its more radical consequences in the Quadrilatero del Silenzio, the "Quadrangle of Silence", with Palazzo Fidia, the unfinished dream of the brilliant architect Aldo Andreani and Palazzo Berri Meregalli, the flamboyant creation of Giulio Ulisse Arata.
