Wrap up in the rich colours of Once Milano’s winter collection

Our new winter colours are now available on the Once Milano website!  

The various shades of the winter collection evoke the intense colours of a crisp, cold winter day; the deep reds, yellows and oranges are reminiscent of a winter sunset whilst the white and beige hues, accompanied by warm browns, conjure images of trees dusted with snow.

So why not take a look at our winter collection and imagine yourself snuggled in front of the fire, wrapped in a luxurious linen blanket, baking cakes in a warm kitchen whilst wearing one of our colourful aprons, or adorning your Christmas table with beautiful linen napkins made with passion by our Italian artisans.

The whole collection can be viewed by visiting www.oncemilano.com

Once Milano sponsored a "going back to Italian traditions" event in historic Italian Palazzo.


Designed for children, the unique event took place at the Libreria Palazzo Roberti, one of Europe's most beautiful bookshops, located in Bassano del Grappa fifty kilometres north of Venice. The Palazzo, dating to 1663, has over the centuries hosted famous artists and writers such as Antonio Canova and Giovanni Poleni, and is home to frescos from Giovanni Scajaro (a pupil of Tiepolo) and statues by Orazio Marinali.

An important focus for cultural events throughout the year, Libreria Palazzo Roberti continues to attract some of Italy’s most established and renown artists and writers.  The joint event with Once Milano celebrated the old traditions by inviting children to listen to old stories, to read children’s books, and using essential accessories, such as the much sought after Once Milano aprons and tea towels in their warm new winter colours, to get their hands at work in making delicious Italian “tagliatelle”.

Once Milano is once again embracing a journey into the almost forgotten traditions, into nature at its best with its products and powerful winter colours. Whether wearing an apron, using a tea towel or snuggling in bed linen designed and made with care that dates back in time evoking the best of Italian textile tradition, Once Milano costumers will feel an integral part of that journey and get a taste of simple and basic things like making “pasta” and reading a book before falling asleep.

Once Milano is making the dream come true with its new collection of seasonal colours. Be part of that dream http://www.oncemilano.com/
