Campari Fashion Avenue with Associazione MonteNapoleone By Melanie Payge

 

The streets were beautifully decorated with red carpets and butterflies hanging from the lamps.

First stop VERSACE gets my “Best Window Display” award.

Lovely Cristina showed me all the beautiful RED displays and the bar. — This very informed Barman explained the first ever cocktail made with Campari was called the “Milano/Torino” or “MITO” (Campari, red vermouth, orange slice and lemon slice).

“Best Looking Bartender” goes to LARUSMIANI Boutiqe.  Offering me a cocktail called the “Americano” – the story goes that in the ’20’s the Italians were tired of drinking from tiny little sherry glasses and decided to create a long drink like the Americans, hence the name (Campari, red vermouth, orange slice and soda.

At Larusmiani Boutique with Giulio.

“Best Public” four girls dressed to the Ts. How did they get their invites.  All social network savvy, they managed on FB. Congratulations!! You’ll make it big.
“Most Accommodating” award goes to BREGUET.

Brand Manager, Maurizio Marino, welcomed me and let me take pictures of his beautiful guests, example:
