By Alex Jordan 17 : 09 : 2015 Prada : Patrizio Bertelli : Pasticceria Marchesi

Milan – Prada’s Pasticceria Marchesi has opened an elegant new store inspired by classic Milanese design aesthetics. 

  • Prada acquired a majority stake in Marchesi Srl, the parent company of the 19th-century eatery, in 2014
  • Part of Prada’s vision of becoming a cultural benefactor

Pasticceria Marchesi’s interior, which bears resemblance to Prada’s Wes Anderson-designed Bar Luce, comprises two dazzling tea rooms filled with traditional pastries, pralines, cakes and salty treats.

Prada worked with architect Roberto Baciocchi and the founding family of Pasticceria Marchesi to develop a modern, colourful identity that reflects the store’s 200-year legacy. Custom-made fine china by Rosenthal and silver cutlery add finishing touches of luxury.

The Big Picture: The city of Milan, known for its industrial roots and flair for fashion, is beginning to blend age-old tradition with modern innovation. Find out more in our Milan Safari.
