ITALY ISSUE 344 May 2012

Welcome to the latest edition of Showcase Italy, brought to you by Production Paradise. We highlight the very best of the Italian visual media industry and, as usual, more information can be found in our dedicated Photo and Film directories for Milan, Rome and other important production cities around Italy.

Don't miss Milan Men Fashion Week from 23rd to 26th June and Pitti Immagine Man/Woman fashion fair from 19th to 22nd June and children fashion from 28th to 30th June.

Also if you have a chance, don't miss the Venice Film Festival from 29th August to 8th September.

Our cover feature, shot by Stefano Guindani, is the result of many years of collaboration with Dolce & Gabbana.

As naming sponsor of the Italian boxing team 'Dolce & Gabbana Milano Thunder', D&G commissioned Stefano to develop this project and give his personal interpretation of the connection between fashion and sport photography.
