Italy's Fashion Capital
  Milan is, of course, the fashion capital of the world. The capital of the region of Lombardia is knwon to everyone as a shopper's paradise and perhaps the city boasts the finest collection of designer shops in Europe. But, navigating through the many shopping districts is a little easier said than done. With so many options available, it is important to know what you are looking for.
  For the season's latest designs
  Quadrilatero della Moda - Literally meaning "Quadrilateral of Fashion," this district boasts the most lavish and refined shops in the city.
  Galleria Vittorio Emanuele - This beautiful galleria is reputed to be one of the world's first shopping malls. Inside you will find various elegant restaurants and designer stores. Right outside the galleria, in piazza Duomo, is La Rinascente - Milan's premier department store, spread throughout 8 floors.
  Corso Buenos Aires - Most clothing stores along this busy street have reasonable prices, providing a nice balance for those searching for style and affordability.
  Corso di Porta Ticinese - This street, which leads to the impressive Porta Ticinese, is most popular with the younger (early 20s) Milanese, and it's shops reflect these trendier styles.
  Il Salvagente - Located at Via Fratelli Bronzetti, 16, this outlet is packed full of discounted designer items for both men and women.
  If you're a bargain-hunter, you can't go wrong at the Mercato di Viale Papiniano, a street fair held every Tuesday and Saturday. From last-season's designer goods to piles of used shoes, this market has a little bit of everything, all at cut-rate prices.
