Summarize this content to 2000 words in 6 paragraphs in Arabic My personal style signifiers are custom Caraceni slim-cut suits \u2013 very English \u2013 in classic colours such as navy and grey. My shirts are custom E Marinella. I\u2019m a typical Milanese man and I like to work so I\u2019m very comfortable in a suit, though my style has changed over the years. In my previous career I worked with Gianni Versace as managing director to help build the brand, and I only wore his clothes. Today\u2019s dress is more traditional. The last thing I bought and loved was a light-blue hand-knit cashmere sweater at the weekend market in Forte dei Marmi, a seaside town in Tuscany. It\u2019s an excellent spot for high-quality shopping because it caters largely to tourists. It\u2019s nice walking there \u2013 there are beautiful flowers and excellent vendors selling everything from ceramics to local leather goods. The place that means a lot to me is the Mediterranean Sea, aboard my 80ft Wally sailboat. It was built in 1999 and stays in Genoa during the winter. From May until September, though, it\u2019s easy to explore the islands of Italy and Greece. I especially love Bolza and Capri and the Aeolian Islands in July, and the island of Symi \u2013 just off Turkey \u2013 in August when Italy is crowded. There are so many beautiful bays and places to anchor in this part of the world. The waters off Rhodes are very special too.The best book I\u2019ve read in the past year is The Count of Virtue: Giangaleazzo Visconti, Duke of Milan by ER Chamberlin. It\u2019s a biography of a fascinating man who took Milan to the pinnacle of power in terms of politics and culture at the beginning of the Renaissance. It is also a story of a despot who ultimately succumbed to the plague that decimated so many at the time.And the best souvenir I\u2019ve brought home is a warrior sculpture from a recent sailing trip through the Solomon Islands in the South Pacific. Local people arrived by canoe to sell us crafts and trinkets, and I bought this sculpture in black wood. He resides in my living room in Forte dei Marmi.My style icon is Beppe Modenese, the former honorary president of the Camera Nazionale della Moda Italiana, a non-profit that helps promote the Italian fashion industry. When I worked in fashion as a young man out of university, I thought he was the epitome of elegance, good manners and good taste. He was known as \u201cThe Gentleman\u201d and \u201cItaly\u2019s Prime Minister of Fashion\u201d, and his suits, ties, pocket squares \u2013 everything \u2013 were perfection. The best gifts I\u2019ve given recently were 20 Christmas presents to my wife last year. It\u2019s a family tradition and I pick them out with my children and grandchildren. From jewellery and clothing to art books, there are gifts from every category, at all prices. One of the best was a gold floral necklace; I went to the store to buy a small necklace for my granddaughter and ended up getting a much grander version for my wife. Another favourite was a sculpture by the Calabrian artist Pino Deodato, inspired by Giorgio de Chirico\u2019s Mysterious Baths sculpture.The best way to spend \u20ac20 is on a stack of newspapers \u2013 preferably to read first thing in the morning. I still like to touch the paper versions.And the best gift I\u2019ve received is a \u201cpatino\u201d rowing boat from my wife. It is a simple, traditional boat that is typical in Forte dei Marmi and I love it for casual paddling. It says \u201cClaudio & Maria\u201d on the side and was the perfect present. I have a collection of skis and also tennis rackets. I started doing both of these sports when I was very young. Back then, we had really long skis, so those are like antiques now. I also have short skis that turn much more easily, and a rotating selection of newer, high-performance demo skis that I trial, all for downhill skiing, not Nordic, where the terrain is flat. They are all different colours and brands, but my favourites are Atomic. It\u2019s the same for my rackets; I love to play and I always like to try new models. A way to make me laugh is my golden retriever, Jack. He is always amusing. He goes everywhere with me \u2013 to the office, to Forte dei Marmi in summer, to St Moritz in the winter \u2013 everywhere but the boat.In my fridge you\u2019ll always find fresh pasta and rag\u00f9, some type of fish, herbs, cheeses, aubergine, all kinds of berries and freshly squeezed orange juice. I also have tea and brioche, but not in the fridge, of course. To be honest, I don\u2019t do much cooking.I\u2019ve recently discovered Laos. I spent my last vacation there and found it to be so beautiful and different from other countries in that part of the world. The people were so kind and well educated, and the trip was full of culture. Amantaka is a spectacular hotel in the Unesco-protected town of Luang Prabang. Being near the Mekong River, the Buddhist temples and the famous night market made for an incredible visit.I don\u2019t know if I believe in life after death because I went to Catholic school and Catholic university, where I studied ethics. It\u2019s difficult to say, so I\u2019ll go with maybe.The last items of clothing I added to my wardrobe were several ski jackets \u2013 a grey Moncler one and two from the Norwegian brand Kjus. They are in brighter colours \u2013 cherry red and blue \u2013 and I keep them at my home in St Moritz. I choose a jacket according to the weather.An object I would never part with is a vintage blue Porsche Cabriolet that my wife gave me 24 years ago. I\u2019m too old for this car, but it\u2019s such a dream \u2013 and it\u2019s special because she purchased it with her own money. It lives in our garage here in Milan and no one else is allowed to drive it. My other cars, yes, fine. But this one? Never.My favourite room in my house in Milan is the whole fourth floor. My bedroom and studio are there, and I spend the first two hours there every morning, eating breakfast and reading the papers. It is a very bright space overlooking the back garden, with very comfortable furniture and lamps that are one-of-a-kind pieces collected from Milan-based antique stores over the years. I love the silence here.The one artist whose work I would collect if I could is Girolamo Ciulla, a Sicilian sculptor. I recently saw his work at the Susanna Orlando Galleria in Pietrasanta, Tuscany. My wife and I loved his travertine sculptures that fuse animals with archaic forms. I don\u2019t collect any design personally \u2013 it all lives in the Kartell Museo \u2013 but there are many artists and product designers whose work I admire.My favourite building is the Triennale in Milan. It\u2019s the best place for art and design in the city and I am very involved there. We\u2019ve just redesigned the first floor, and the Cuore \u2013 the research, archive and library space \u2013 was completed last year. It\u2019s just a beautiful place to visit. When I need to feel inspired, I walk in a city other than my own: Tokyo, New York, London \u2013 places that are energetic, where I am more open to new things. This is harder to do in Milan where I am in my set routine, and in familiar spaces. I also get inspired late at night when I go to bed and think about the next day.An indulgence I would never forgo is going to bed very late and therefore sleeping late. Nighttime, when everyone is asleep and it\u2019s quiet, is when I have time to read, think and watch television. It\u2019s my alone time. Sleeping late feels very indulgent in today\u2019s fast-paced world.The things I couldn\u2019t do without are my family and my work. I love being around creative, supportive people and I love to be involved in business, sports and holidays. That combination is everything to me. I\u2019m lucky because at this stage I can do what I want \u2013 both professionally and personally \u2013 so I try to take advantage of that freedom.The grooming staple I\u2019m never without is Pour Un Homme de Caron, which I have used for at least 40 years. My wife originally gave it to me, so it\u2019s very familiar. Everything else I use is basic, including my normal bar of soap and toothpaste. Pour Un Homme de Caron, \u20ac118 for 125ml EDTMy wellbeing gurus are extremely limited. I tried a trainer, but all I did was cancel. I made it a point to start training in September, though, in preparation for ski season. The only person I seem to stick with is my tennis pro at the Tennis Club Europa & Padel in Forte dei Marmi. I am also reliant on my son, Federico, who is my tennis partner and keeps me in shape.The last music I downloaded was\u2026 a long time ago! I still like the old bands \u2013 The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and old 20th-century Italian performers like Mina and Ornella Vanoni. I have a young family and I am constantly fighting their musical tastes.My favourite websites are the basics \u2013 Corriere della Sera for the news and Nicola Porro for political commentary. I also check weather apps for the wind for sailing, and the snow reports in St Moritz for skiing, but I don\u2019t spend a lot of time online \u2013 I never have a phone on the table. In another life, I would have been a footballer. I played in a serious youth league for years, and the sport has always been an important part of my life, as are my former teammates. I support AC Milan. The best bit of advice I ever received was from a friend who is a lawyer, who said, \u201cClaudio, buy it!\u201d when Kartell came up for sale via my father-in-law. I had sold my stake in Versace and was looking for my next creative chapter: Kartell has been completely fulfilling. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
