Drawing in crowds from all over Europe, the annual Arena di Verona Festival lights up the city’s prestigious amphitheatre throughout summer. Such an occasion calls for a special fragrance, like this one from the Italian designer Giorgio Armani. Whimsical, magical and simply delizioso.

Exploring romantic Verona

With its pretty piazzas, winding alleys and the mammoth first-century amphitheatre at its heart, a meander through Verona feels akin to stepping into an elegant Renaissance painting. Imbue an air of romance and lean into the city’s Shakespearean associations with swirling silhouettes and ethereal fabrics. Frills, elegant draping and neutral palettes work from noon 'til night, perfect for everything from exploring antiquated buildings to a sunset picnic with market-fresh goodies.

Insider Tip

Hidden within the city’s walls is where you’ll find some of the best cacio e pepe, Rome’s signature dish. Choose a do-it-all dress like this from Armani Exchange for dining under the stars.

Sightseeing in Rome

It’s during summer that Rome really comes to life. Mornings are reserved for early sightseeing, while afternoons invite leisurely moments under azure skies and balmy evenings dining al fresco. Rich in ancient history and Renaissance architecture, Rome reveals its treasures best by foot – for which, you’ll want a comfortable pair of flats to last every step. Beyond that, preppy playsuits, statement jewellery and a trusty crossbody bag will lend a sophisticated edge to daytime dressing.
