Milan, the city best know for La Scala, Giuseppe Verdi, and Alta Moda is embracing American casual, but with a twist, of course.  Milan is opening their very first Gap store this month on Corso Vittorio Emmanuele, and is celebrating with a high profile, seven piece design collaboration with Valentino. Check out the gallery for a preview of the collection.  Oh, did I mention the Valentino for Gap collection will NOT be available in Canada? Of course not. C'est la vie.
