Vitale Barberis Canonico "A chat with...Simon Crompton" April 29th 2015

Only a few days after the inauguration of its first showroom in Milan, the wool mill Vitale Barberis Canonico, amongst the oldest in the world with 352 years of business behind it and the thirteenth generation of the same family at the helm, hosted the first event in the series entitled “A Chat with...”. The first appointment, Wednesday, 29th April, had the pleasure of the participation of the British blogger Simon Crompton, who was invited to present his book “Annual Permanent Style” containing the best articles of his Permanent Style blog. The interview with Simon Crompton was presented by Simone Marchetti, one of the most authoritative names in the Italian press online and offline. It gave rise to a consideration of the more relevant passages from “Annual Permanent Style” and simultaneously emphasised the significance of masculine elegance and its fulfilment in the times of the Internet.
