Suzy Menkes on Piaggi

Mention Anna Piaggi and chances are you’ll think 'Eccentric', 'Italian', and 'Over the top'. We’ve talked about this woman a few times and it never ceases to amaze us how her style impacts on the fashion world. Piaggi’s amazing life, work and collection of hats are currently exhibited at The Victoria and Albert Museum in London. The exhibition, Fashion-ology, has received a good write-up since the opening in February. The most interesting read is Suzy Menkes’ article, published today in International Herald Tribune (you should all go and read it!). Named appropriately An editor with h-attitude, we’ll get a slight hint of Menkes' thoughts of her Italian journalist colleague.
