Mi Italia is a Milan-based platform built on a simple observation: the most interesting fashion in Italy is rarely found in the flagship stores on the main shopping streets. It sits in the independent boutiques and family-run ateliers a few doors down: the ones with a genuine point of view and a level of craftsmanship that doesn't scale. Founded in Milan in 2023 by Zed Lateef, the company gives these boutiques a shop window that reaches well beyond their own neighbourhood.
The model works in both directions. Boutique owners get an omnichannel platform to present their collections globally and to improve their performance with international visitors — a customer base small independents have always found hard to reach and harder to retain. Travellers and overseas shoppers get a straightforward way to discover boutiques they would otherwise walk past, with practical features such as click & reserve and click & deliver. Through the Mi Italia app, on the App Store and Google Play, users browse a curated selection of Milanese boutiques, read the story behind each one, and contact them directly. Searches filter by location, distance, city, opening hours and product category, so finding handcrafted leather shoes, a tailored suit or a particular dress takes minutes rather than an afternoon. Items can be reserved online and tried in store, or bought outright and shipped internationally. The wider ambition, expressed through the company's MiModa proposition, extends the same approach to Paris, Istanbul and other fashion capitals, with the consistent aim of giving local businesses and artisans a global stage.

Founded in Brera and made in Italy, Maurizio Baldassari is known for a particular kind of restraint: noble fabrics — linen, silk, cashmere, wool — selected for their hand as much as their name, cut into pieces that reveal themselves slowly. The Icons collection takes its names from the city and the coast it belongs to. Nothing insists. Everything lasts.
The showroom stands at Via Solferino 14, a few minutes' walk from Palazzo Parigi.
It opens by private appointment. The collection in full, one-to-one, without hurry or audience — an hour set aside to consider fabric, fit and proportion in the way such things deserve. Guests of the Ball are warmly invited to arrange one.
Rinascimento Solare® (powered by Enersystems S.p.A.) is a leading national provider of residential photovoltaic systems across Italy. Since its founding in 2007, the company has focused exclusively on the design, installation, and maintenance of solar energy solutions, guided by values of trust, continuity, and quality in a market often led by opportunism.
More than a solar installer, Rinascimento Solare embraces a vision of humanistic capitalism: people (not just customers) are at the heart of every project. Their model emphasizes direct, personalized human contact (no call centres), long-term relationships, and high-quality tailored systems that deliver lasting results over 25 years or more.
Operating throughout Italy with over 250 consultants and 400 technicians, the company offers attentive service from project conception to after-sales support, ensuring smooth and reliable energy transitions for homeowners.
A distinctive dimension of their mission is the cultural reinvestment: a portion of profits supports the Fondazione Scimeca per il Rinascimento Solare ETS, which promotes social regeneration, cultural heritage, and artistic initiatives in Italy’s small towns and villages. This bridges solar energy, local identity, and sustainable development.
