The arrival of the first print issue of Harper’s Bazaar Italia was celebrated with an exclusive event that marked a key moment in the magazine’s Italian debut, immediately affirming its positioning within the international editorial landscape.
“The Italian launch of Harper’s Bazaar represents a moment of great value for our network,” commented Giacomo Moletto, CEO of Hearst Italia, highlighting the group’s commitment to delivering a product of excellence.
The installations and overall setting of the evening, a highlight of the Milanese scene in 2023, were illuminated by the Accordeon Battery lamps designed by Marc Sadler, selected to enhance the mise en place with a soft, elegant light and their hand-pleated diffuser, crafted by the Sarte della Luce at the Slamp production facility just outside Rome.
The table design by Giorgia Fantin Borghi, enriched by floral arrangements by Ceccotti Flowers, accompanied the menu curated by chef Andrea Aprea, helping to create a refined and highly scenic atmosphere.
Among the guests were pianist Vanessa Benelli Mosell and the iconic Patti Smith.
