As well as being famed for pizza, espresso and romance, Italy also excels in the field of classical ballet, with famous dancers like Carla Fracci, Roberto Bolle, Alessandra Ferri and Fabio Grossi. Just behind the established La Scala Theatre, there’s Porselli, the Italian “pointe shoe” manufacturer par excellence.

Founded in 1919, the shop is still managed by the heirs of the Porselli family and it sells ballet dresses, tutus, bodysuits and their famously soft and comfortable ballerina shoes.

Anyone can find what they need in the Porselli location. The best fabrics and refined workmanship make Porselli the ballet outfitter to turn to in Milan.
