Nespresso is kicking off the year in style with Italian fashion icon, Chiara Ferragni, who has embarked on a journey of discovery through her love for coffee in a four-part short film series.
Inspired by the delicious flavours and the Italian regional coffee traditions, Chiara co-developed a limited-edition collection with Nespresso, expanding the Ispirazione Italiana range with the launch of the Milano Intenso coffee, accessories and a coffee machine that pay tribute to the urban vibes and contemporary tempo of Milan City.
Alongside renowned historian, Filippo Cosmelli, Chiara starts her adventure in the fascinating history of Rome’s coffee culture and the tradition and creativity of the beautiful city.
Together, the duo visits iconic locations, including Antico Caffè Greco where they enjoy a Roma espresso and uncover Italian roasting traditions.
Chiara’s journey continues through the city of Milan, the true inspiration behind the design, taste and notes of the Milano Intenso coffee, stemming from historic locations such as Villa Necchi, Palazzo Montedoria and Duomo Cathedral.
The Duomo gold spires and Villa Necchi’s bespoke geometric deep green design with gold accents, appear throughout the limited-edition collection, uniting coffee enthusiasts globally with timeless elegance and classic vibes.
Commenting on her collaboration with Nespresso, Chiara Ferragni said: “My love of coffee and Italy knows no limits, so I jumped at the chance to collaborate again with dear Nespressofamily to co-develop this limited-edition collection.”
“The new range has been inspired by the creativity and rich culture of Milan, and I am so excited to bring to life such great tasting coffee with beautiful accessories and machine for coffee lovers to enjoy wherever they are.”
