Florence used to be the fashion capital of Italy, maybe even the world. Within a ten year span, the major designers we know today moved their headquarters to Milan. This a major migration and quickly turned Milan into the fashionable city we know it as today.

So why?

                Versace requested to the city of Florence if he could hold a grand fashion show in the very famous Boboli Gardens (Google them-now). They thumbs-downed his request and Versace simply got up and moved to Milan, a city that would better serve his needs. Within a decade, designer after designer hopped on over with him, leaving Florence still a fashionable, fabulous, beautiful city, but lost it’s name as “The Fashion Capital.”

All over the Boboli Gardens.
