Genoa is undoubtedly a treasure chest in terms of style and fashion
Thanks to its millenary and fascinating history, Genoa is undoubtedly a treasure chest in terms of style and fashion. The main port has always been a fundamental junction for the trade of raw materials, fabrics and goods and over the centuries Genoa has developed a thriving market of historic shops, high fashion boutiques, workshops, goldsmiths and emporiums.
High fashion shopping district
Via Roma and Galleria Mazzini are definitely the place to be if you are passionate about high fashion and want to visit the best boutiques. The style of Galleria Mazzini is typical of the late 1800s, with large bronze chandeliers and a glass dome in an iron skeleton. If you feel tired of “too much shopping”, take a break in one of the historic cafes and contemplate the bustle of the city.
Textile stores
Between Piazza Campetto and Piazza San Lorenzo you can find the lovely Via di Scurreria. Originally a neighborhood of laborers and silk workers, it now houses tailor's stores and leather goods stores. Here you can customize your style in a truly unique and inimitable way.
Artisan stores
If you are an excellent collector of unique pieces, your final destination can only be Via Orefici or Via Luccoli. Here time seems to have stopped and among the alleys (in Genoese slang "carrugi"), you will find goldsmiths, emporiums and antique shops. Our Concierge is always ready to provide you with the best suggestions on where to go to satisfy your shopping desire!
