A suggestive new project by Salvatore Ferragamo that combines creative genius, moda, art and history.

I love when the moda and art go hand in hand. I believe that they are intrinsically linked artistic disciplines and that is why it is necessary to promote their union with actions such as these.

Salvatore Ferragamo will be the exclusive sponsor of the latest exhibition paying homage to Leonardo da Vinci: «La Santa Ana, Leonardo da Vinci's last masterpiece«, which can be visited at the Louvre 29 de marzo al 25 de junio de 2012. The exhibition is a celebration of «La Virgen, the Child Jesus and Santa Ana«, the masterful oil painting on wood between 1503 y 1519, and which recently underwent a thorough and exhaustive restoration.

On the occasion of this exhibition, el 12 de junio, Salvatore Ferragamo will organize an exclusive event to present its Resort collection 2012, designed by Creative Director Massimiliano Giornetti. The House's creations will move along a catwalk of 120 meters arranged under the arches of the peristyle of the Denon wing that frames the Louvre. suppose the first time the museum has given up its historic interiors to stage a parade. In the past, events of this type were held in the courtyard adjoining the glass pyramid. After the fashion show, an exclusive dinner and a private visit to the Salvatore Ferragamo museum will take place.

In the words of the President of the Ferragamo group and part of the family that created the brand, Ferruccio Ferragamo: «means a great honor, both for my family and for our firm, having been chosen among other applicants of such recognized prestige to sponsor this exclusive event. infinite creativity, aesthetic innovation, artisan roots and pioneering research are the intrinsic characteristics that have always defined the Italian genius embodied in Leonardo da Vinci, always so valued by us. Values ​​that were equally personified by my father; inspiring our work and reflection of the reality of our firm”.
