One of Italy’s top tailors of men’s suits since 1911 – this warehouse outlet holds a staggering array of choices (over 1,000 suits, 1,500 jackets etc) at 35% off the usual prices.
Mario Buccellati

Since 1919, no two Buccelatti jewels have been the same: each gemstone and silver filigree is hand-crafted by skilled artisans.
Max Mara

After more than 50 years at the top of their class in women’s wear, the Maramotti family’s prêt-à-porter fashions are more vibrant than ever.
Memphis

Shop purveying the whimsical, stunning design objects produced by Milan’s Memphis group, founded in 1981 by Ettore Sottsass and other young designers.
Mila Schön

If you like the Italian football team’s kit and the Alitalia outfits, come here for other Mila Schön designs.
Milan’s Markets

The big Milan market is Saturday’s Fiera di Senigallia along the Darsena canal. Milan’s Sunday flea market surrounds the San Donato metro stop in the south. Local markets are on Via San Marco (Mondays), Via Benedetto Marcello (northeast of the Giardini Pubblici) on Tuesdays, and Viale Papiniano in the Navigli (Saturdays). Markets tend to shut by 1pm, except on Saturday.
Missoni

Colourful knitwears from Ottavio and Rosita Missoni, who turned the fashion maxims of minimalism and basic black upside down.
Mortarotti

Tired of boutique-hopping? Here’s just one shop stocking a dozen major women’s labels: Ferré, Missoni, Roberto Cavalli, Allegri, Eva Branca and more.
Moschino

Everything from jeans to prêt-à-porter from the fashion iconoclast who died young in 1994.
Oblò, Mantova

Popular pub with friendly proprietors, good beers, great panini , a non-smoking room and a loyal local clientele. The music is loud, but it’s not a raucous place.
