Fashion, art and taste light up Florence.
Florence, city of art and style, symbol of Italian elegance, international icon of timeless beauty, is the setting for an event that blends fashion, art and haute cuisine in one of its most fascinating locations. It’s April 11, 2025, it’s 6:30 pm, and the terrace of the Hotel Il Tornabuoni comes alive to welcome “The Aperigala – Excellence Magazine Night”, an exclusive event created by Excellence Magazine.

The star of the evening is the designer Eleonora Lastrucci, an icon of Italian sartorial virtuosity, who in her Florentine boutique, exactly on the Hotel Il Tornabuoni rooftop, presents a selection of evening and red carpet dresses: authentic masterpieces of haute couture, an expression of refined and timeless femininity, the result of impeccable artisan techniques and meticulous research on materials, typical of Made in Italy excellence.
Eleonora’s models are there, moving gracefully between the refinement of the interiors and the grandeur of the terrace overlooking Florence rooftops. Enriching the atmosphere, the presence of famous guests such as Kelly Joyce, Andrea Paris and Daria Davidova, with their charisma that make the evening even more elegant. The elegance of the moment is completed by a signature cocktail: an impeccable food and wine journey, whose refined flavors envelop guests in an exclusive sensory experience.

The event, curated by Excellence Magazine with the participation of Francesca Polizzi, is part of the new stage of the “The Aperigala” format, designed to celebrate the art of Made in Italy through meetings in which fashion, creativity and the culture of living well blend into an unparalleled experience.

To beat time the sophisticated sound of VIP Guest DJ Trizza, who accompanies every moment of the evening with elegance and discretion.
The event was organized thanks to the support of Creative Digital Sagl, a digital marketing company, and HELIOR, an Italian brand of reference for Swiss physical gold, distributed exclusively by Banco Metalli Golden Age Srl, which offers a purchase solution in pure 999.9 gold with the possibility of storage in a vault in Lugano, offering security, liquidity and consultancy throughout Italy. A special thanks to Polverini Hair Academia Florence, Agricola Ludus and I profumi del Marmo. An experience that does not end in one evening, but marks a new course to describe the Made in Italy through emotions, meetings and style.
