The Object and Its Moment
A Supplement for La Scala

This volume was published by Vogue Italia in December 1994 as a special supplement, devoted entirely to the Teatro alla Scala in Milan on the opening of its 1994/1995 season.

A fashion magazine, given over to the opera house.

The Fashion Landscape
Vogue Italia in the 1990s

Vogue Italia was launched in 1964. Under Franca Sozzani, editor-in-chief from 1988 to 2016, the magazine gave particular space to photography and to special issues and supplements devoted to single subjects.

The Wider Culture
The Opening Night

Since 1951 the La Scala season has opened on 7 December, the feast of Sant'Ambrogio, Milan's patron saint. The first night is a musical and a social occasion, and the dress of its audience has long been part of how it is reported.

Reading the Object
Theatre and Fashion

Read today, the supplement shows how an Italian fashion magazine chose to present the city's opera house: as a cultural institution and as a setting for Milanese style. It belongs with the special publications Vogue Italia issued in the 1990s.

Milan's two stages, opera and fashion, in one volume.
