Antonia Accessori
New-breed buyer Antonia Giancinti’s eponymous boutique mixes locals like Bottega Veneta with international labels like Lam, Lavin, Biba and McCartney in an urban, monochrome space that echoes her Carrie Bradshaw-ish aesthetic. Antonia Accessori displays the same brash zeitgeistiness. Trust her, she’s a self-proclaimed shoe-victim (and she’s not talking bunions).

Mandarina Duck
Nice try, Tumi and Samsonite: Mandarina Duck still does the streamlined look best, in space-age fabrics, offbeat colours, and striking shapes with rounded edges. Instead of perching atop pedestals, these bags are displayed slung across furniture, just like back home - only there's probably no scrounging for change in these designer sofas.

Fabriano
Stationery-tragics won’t be the only ones going quietly ga-ga over Fabriano’s goods. Everything from plain notebooks to linen pencil cases to kooky leather keyrings are exquisitely crafted. An everpresent sense of wit makes all the good taste even more attractive. Staff are delightful and wrap gifts with trademark flair.

Borsolino
The iconic Alessandrian milliner has worked with the greats (Achille Castiglioni once designed a pudding bowl bowler) and it still has room for whimsy as the feathery numbers attest. This little shop at the Galleria’s Piazza Marino entrance is good for practical pitstops as well as nostalgic browsing and fantasy try ons.

Piumelli
Leather gloves come in a huge range of styles, every colour of the rainbow and a choice of luxury linings (silk, cashmere, lapin). For those with either delicate digits or mighty man-hands, they have a full range of sizes and friendly staff to advise on fit. Look out for the sales baskets when not just after basic black.
