Milanostyle.com works exclusively with personal shopper and fashion expert Melanie Payge. She always knows exactly what’s in the stores each season and is ready to help you complete and re-style your wardrobe. We offer three shopping tours, select the one which is best for you:

VIP Luxury Shopping Experience

The best shops, special service and your own personal stylist and translator.
It’s a luxury shopping experience.  Melanie will meet you at your Hotel before the shops open to get better acquainted.  The shopping day can start at any corner of the Golden Quad.
We can start at Armani where we will be taken up to the 2nd floor to a private room where the sales clerk will  give us undivided attention.  Next, we can go to Prada, take a look around, have an espresso and start trying on clothes.  You will be so comfortable in the private spacious VIP dressing rooms and never have to worry about communication problems or not getting served immediately.  Next to Dior, Valentino and YSL, everything goes smoothly. Being treated with all the special acknowledgement you deserve. The alterations are handled in 24 hours and all your purchases are delivered to the Hotel.  Time for lunch at elegant Caruso in the Grand Hotel et de Milan or plush Armani Nobu to chat about what’s next on your itinerary.  Melanie knows exactly what’s in the stores each season and is ready to help you complete your wardrobe.  After lunch a visit to Stella McCartney with three shop-assistants to pamper you with a glass of champagne, then to Roberto Cavalli, Dolce & Gabbana and Miu Miu. A purse from Gilli is a must, and a pair of shoes from Renee Caovilla!  Even if we get to  MMissoni before closing, they will let us in and we can take our time trying on anything in the shop! No pressure.

This service is perfect for travelers who like extra attention and  who value their privacy. Only Melanie Payge can get you this kind of treatment. British fashion celebrity Jody Kidd once said, “Melanie Payge knows Milan like the back of her hand bag! In fact, there is no better way to insure a memorable shopping experience in Milan than to hire Melanie as your personal stylist and image consultant.” [Photos: Terje Bringedal]
The Practical Shopping Experience
If you are a more “practical shopper” and you know what you want or have little time to go shopping, you can book your personal shopper for a half day shopping excursion or she can do the shopping for you!
