This is a fair I’ve been attending and supporting for quite awhile because it centers on young design and new talent and I love the inspirational atmosphere and the overall energy from the exhibitors. I also launched my 4th book at this fair in 2016.
BUT.

Dates I’ll be there: The full week
I will definitely be back in Milan in April, just not sure who I’m working for there yet and what I’ll be doing. And I have NO CLUE where to stay overnight. Ugh. Milan is always a big headache when it comes to finding a hotel. If you have suggestions, please let me know! Just NO , I have had too many friends book Milan dates with Air B&B only to have properties cancel the night before or the day of their trip. Anyway, I love being at the fair and seeing my friends and spending a week totally inspired by design and art. It’s fantastic!
Okayyyy so my dear friends, those are my fair dates for Q1 2019.
Love,
Holly
