People
Carolina Kostner
“…Torino, which is my second Italian shelter, has an atmosphere that I really like, not only on ice. In Torino, I have found dreamlike places, little classical music shops. I spent an entire afternoon once, chatting with the owner of one of these shops about the history of the Flamenco.”
Umberto Eco
"Without Italy, Torino would be more or less the same. But, without Torino, Italy would be very different."
Walter Dang
“Torino’s ladies are the ideal interpreters of my creations, balanced between classicism and experimentation. They never much attention to brand names, dressing in an understated way focusing on substance and not appearance. They want to be original without being brash.”
