From humble beginnings in Monza in 1924, Pietro and Maria Zaccardi built the Brian & Barry brand from scratch. Their impressive, 12-storey flagship store, designed by Giovanni Muzio, houses not only their good-value line but high-end fashion brands, accessories, cosmetics and food, including an outlet of Eataly. The top-floor bar, Terrazza12 (noon to 1am), is popular for business lunches and aperitivo.
