Es un museo pequeño, recomendable sólo para aquellos que realmente sean apasionados/interesados de la moda

Stylish, surprising, genuinely worthwhile (even if you are not into shoes) I visited the Museo Salvatore Ferragamo in Florence because a friend of mine was working on a project there for visually impaired visitors; honestly I am not really interested in shoes; but I left positively surprised. The museum tells the story of Salvatore Ferragamo in a way that is short, engaging and elegant; it is not overly large; you can see everything without feeling rushed or overwhelmed. The displays mix Italian craftsmanship with a touch of Hollywood glamour; you really feel how Ferragamo went from artisan shoemaker to designer for the stars. The setting is very stylish; very classy; beautifully lit; thoughtfully curated. Staff were friendly and welcoming, which made the visit even better. Bottom line: Even if fashion is not your thing; if you appreciate design, cultural history or simply places with character; the Ferragamo Museum is well worth a visit. A refined slice of Italian elegance; right in Florence.
