Mercoledì sono stata a Milano, oltre alla tappa di rito alla Mondadori di Corso Vittorio Emanuele II per fare incetta di riviste di moda internazionali, mi sono recata in quello che è diventato il mio nuovo luogo preferito di Milano, la Biblioteca della Moda.
All'interno di un palazzo imponente, a due passi dalla stazione di Porta Genova, si trova la biblioteca che tutti gli appassionati di fashion magazine dovrebbero visitare almeno una volta nella vita! Oltre 45.000 titoli disponibili, la maggioranza dei quali sono riviste, le più importanti testate internazionali dal 1860 ad oggi, ogni singolo numero! Insieme alle riviste è possibile consultare libri storici, fotografici e saggi legati non solo al mondo della moda, ma anche al tessile, agli accessori e al design; inoltre è possibile visionare i lookbook dei più importanti brand dagli anni 90 ad oggi.
In un'atmosfera quasi casalinga, tra divani e scrivanie, è possibile svolgere ricerche e creare progetti, con la possibilità di rivolgersi alle disponibilissime bibliotecarie. La biblioteca offre anche un servizio di copisteria e scansione dei volumi, per poter godere a casa vostra delle pagine del materiale raccolto in archivio.
Affiancato alla collezione storica, costantemente implementata, vi è un corner dedicato ai magazine internazionali contemporanei, che possono essere acquistati sia in sede che online.
Spesso la Biblioteca della Moda diventa una perfetta location per eventi e presentazioni essendo un luogo apprezzato e riconosciuto nel settore. La Biblioteca della Moda di Milano è infatti la prima biblioteca specializzata in Europa e la terza nel mondo, un punto di riferimento per tutti coloro i quali vogliano approfondire la loro conoscenza nell'ambito di moda e design.
La biblioteca offre anche un servizio di valutazione di collezioni o singoli testi, quindi se possedete riviste datate o libri da collezione non esitate a contattarli! Il loro sito web (www.bibliotecadellamoda.it) fornisce tutte le informazioni utili, anche riguardo al tesseramento; è infatti necessario associarsi alla biblioteca per poter usufruire dei servizi forniti. La tessera ha un costo di 90 € per i lavoratori, di 60 € per gli studenti ed ha valore annuale. Con una spesa minima potrete godere di tutto il fascino e la bellezza delle pagine di antiche riviste, facendo un tuffo nel passato in cui è possibile trovare spunti, idee e immagini da portare nel presente!

On Wednesday I was in Milan, apart from the usual step-over at Corso Vittorio Emanuele II Mondadori to buy up international fashion magazines, I went into what has become my new favorite place in Milan, the Biblioteca della Moda, Fashion Library in English.
Within a majestic building, a stone's throw away from Porta Genova station, there is the library that all fashion magazines lovers should visit at least once in a lifetime! Over 45.000 titles available, the majority of whom are magazines, the major international sheets from 1860 up to the present, every single issue! Along with the magazines you can consult historical and photographic books, essays related not only to the fashion world, but also to textiles, accessories and design; you can also sonsult the lookbooks of the most important brands from the 90s to this day.
In an almost domestic environment, among sofas and desks, you can carry out researchs and create projects, with the opportunity to apply to the helpful librarians. The library also offers a service of copying and scanning, in order to enjoy in your home of the material collected in the archive.
Flanked to the historical collection, which is constantly implemented, there is a corner devoted to contemporary international magazines, which can be purchased both at the headquarters and online.
Often the Biblioteca della Moda becomes a perfect location for events and presentations being a place which is appreciated and recognized in the industry. Milan Fashion Libary is in fact the first specialized library in Europe and the third worldwide, a benchmark for all those who want to deepen their knowledge in the context of fachion and design.
The library also offers a service of assessment of collections or individual texts, so if you have old magaziones or collectors' books do not hesitate to contact them! Their website (www.bibliotecadellamoda.it) provides all the relevant information, even with respect to membership; it is in fact necessary to associate to the library in order to enjoy the services provided. The card cost € 90 for workers, € 60 for students and has an annual value. With a minimal expense you can enjoy all the charm and beauty of old magazines pages, a dip into the past where you may find inspiration, ideas and images to bring into the present!
Ed ora alcune fantastiche campagne pubblicitarie del passato!
Now some amazing fashion ads from the past!
