How Strong Is Italy's Luxury Economy?

Fashion, design, wine, and tourism anchor Italy's high-end economy.

Milan hosts Fashion Week and the Salone del Mobile design fair; hotel and driver availability tighten during these periods—book far ahead. Wine regions like Piedmont and Tuscany draw global collectors; private tastings often need reservations.

Artisanal crafts thrive in Florence (leather, gold) and Venice (glass)—great for curated shopping with concierge guides.
