For over 90 years, LuisaViaRoma has been sharing its vision with the world, making an impact not only on luxury fashion but the world at large. A cultural influence, the Italian luxury multiband store has always been thoughtfully ahead of trends and given a great deal of attention to how it can be of service to others.

“Fashion is an absolute thermometer of the world,” said Annagreta Panconesi, creative director of LuisaViaRoma.com. “The human eye must be able to record everything, but it is essential to rely on one’s ability to read what is happening around us to find the right thread, the most appropriate interpretation.”

Since the summer of 2018, LuisaViaRoma and Unicef Italia have been proud partners in hosting the renowned LuisaViaRoma for Unicef event, raising money to help the Unicef organization.
