Italy, as it is known, attracts not only lovers of ancient culture and Christian pilgrims, and avid fashionistas.
Local shops located ten kilometers in diameter around any of the resort and as a spiritual prepodnosimye Italian shops, will try to sell you a questionable goods from China.
One of these resorts - Naples, which is the largest distribution center for counterfeit goods and is considered silent capital fakes.Not far to seek: basking on the shore of the Tyrrhenian Sea, you will be able to buy from illegal Africans Louis Vuitton bags for 15 euros.The main thing that was not around Carabinieri, who stormed the Italian coast, trying to block the distribution channel for exclusive products unbearably low price.So no matter how expensive and alluring was no showcase, always have to remain vigilant.
However, Naples, of course, is not only counterfeit - not far from the central square of the city is a long street with fashion boutiques.Apart from branded showrooms, such as Tommy Hilfiger, Replay, and Levi's, you can find unusual shops with inexpensive clothes, ornate jewelry and souvenirs nontrivial.
impossible not to visit the famous shopping mall "Galleria Umberto", which is notable for its more extreme grandeur and architectural perfection than interesting shops and unprecedented discounts.
If funds permit, you can go to Milan.Excluding the huge number of shops, tawdry grace of a large metropolis, and many restaurants with excellent food, but lazy waiters, the fashion capital of Italy, gives the impression of a bustling, commercial city is very vain.
Because the number of rolls in Milan fashion shows per square meter, the high prices of the hotel are shocking, and the typical visitors to the city - fragile representatives of the fashion business, is compressed in the hands trembling from hunger branded bags Dior and Prada.
status of the largest financial center in Europe, a large proximity to France, Switzerland and Austria and the impact on prices in the boutiques, which, of course, lower than in the GUM, but also bite.
Tourists with significant budgets are obliged to go to the center of Milan, a quarterly fashion street Via Montenapoleone.This reserve of luxury and glamor are at home the most famous fashion designer.Shopping Yves Saint Laurent, Dolce & amp;Gabbana, Hermes and Chanel meet you royal ambience and fabulous prices.If you walk down the street you can find more affordable brands such as H & amp; M and Zara.
Somewhere between the unjustified high cost of consumer goods and Milan Rimini Naples is the city that will satisfy the aspirations of the buyer with an average salary.Sales season starts in early December, the eve of the Catholic Christmas and lasts until the beginning of February.After the New Year holidays in mid-January, prices in the shops reach 70%, while the prices for tours to Italy fall significantly.When choosing a modest hotel voucher 8 days will cost 15-20 thousand rubles per person (+ 5000 rubles Italian visa and fuel surcharges).
Center Rimini breaking from boutiques: Max Mara, Diesel, Benetton, Armani, Dior, Baldinini, Polini, Casadei, but a collection of clothes, shoes and accessories are represented there fully.The Outlet, located near the town, the prices are not much different from the store, and the range is even poorer.
best way otovaritsya at low prices - to go to the so-called shopping tour.Do not trust the representatives of travel agencies, who will try to lure you into the wonderful edge at the airport: drivers are instructed to collect a group of tourists with money for the trip and taken to the uncertain stock centers.Bottom line: for 20-50 euros you get in glossy shopping malls (eg, Big Chic) with gorgeous prices.
fit alternative are private drivers who do not take a bribe for the trip, getting a percentage of shopping tourists.The conductors in the world of high fashion in advance designate the route and plan stops.Usually, a trip with the driver involves visiting various factories or warehouses of famous brands, which are in large numbers in the vicinity of the town.Find fashion cab is not difficult: private drivers often leave their business cards at the reception in the hotel lobby - it is always possible to call to find out the conditions and details of your trip and choose the tour that is right for you.
in warning potential buyers from excessive independence, we note that no person who knows the area, it is practically impossible to get to the factory or a large store Baldinini footwear brand Vicini.
Representation of some well-known Italian brands do not advertise their location.A striking example - a warehouse of clothes Valentino, tucked away in a nondescript gray building with no identifying marks.To doubt the originality of products is only if the cash register is not a boutique or you are denied registration Tax free (VAT refund on the route).
In general, the issues of quality of the Italian shopping is poor compatibility with the holiday tour or holiday.In pursuit of the best prices tourists are often lured by the colorful first showcase, which is located next to their hotel.Yet on a shopping trip is to provide a separate event: to plan a trip during the sales season, to evaluate the budget to find a cheap hotel, choose the optimum route that will save time and visit all the necessary boutiques, even if they are located in different cities.
All of these simple rules will get pleasure from shopping and the desire to return to Italy again and again.
