Titina Maselli, Salvatore Ferragamo and the myth of Greta Garbo

Exhibition Hours

The chapel and the room on the second floor of the Museo Novecento host a new project entitled Étoile, designed to enhance some 20th-century works from the Florentine Civic Collections. Cyclically, one of the masterpieces from the MIAC collection will be the protagonist inside the museum rooms: an opportunity for in-depth study and rediscovery of some of the great Italian artists of the twentieth century placed in dialogue with fashion, design and architecture.

Style icon and model of a completely original and unconventional femininity, Greta Garbo binds her image to that of Salvatore Ferragamo, a stylist loved by divas who with extreme accuracy and passion has been able to interpret the taste and personality of the great actress of Hollywood. For the occasion, as inside a small casket, some of the shoes designed by Salvatore Ferragamo for Greta Garbo are exceptionally exhibited.
