Milan Shopping Guide

## At a glance Four Milan addresses give this guide its range: a design-led concept store, a specialist cutlery shop, a textile house and a department store beside the Duomo. Together they make a compact introduction to the city’s different ways of shopping. ## Four ways into Milan shopping The Comune di Milano frames Brera’s urban commercial district through its art-and-culture identity, with galleries, furniture shops, boutiques and food businesses. The four selected places here give a different cross-section of Milan retail: a concept store linked to exhibition spaces, two specialists in objects and textiles, and the department store beside the Duomo. ## A concept store with rooms beyond retail At Corso Como 10, shopping meets an exhibition programme. The current concept-store form opened in September 2024, bringing fashion and design into conversation with art and food. A staircase connects the shop to the Gallery and Project Room, so an exhibition can sit naturally alongside a browse. The interiors are credited to 2050+ within Tiziana Fausti’s vision for the address. The shop is at Corso Como 10, 20154 Milan. Its published retail hours are daily, 10:30–19:30; for enquiries, call +39 02 29002674 or write to shop@10corsocomo.com. Check the [Milan store page](https://10corsocomo.com/it/blogs/stores/milano) before setting out. ## A specialist counter for useful objects Coltelleria Lorenzi’s own account begins on Via Paolo Sarpi in 1924, followed by a second Milan location on Via dell’Orso in 1967. The shop is now at Via Ponte Vetero 17. That timeline gives the present address a quiet continuity: the setting changed, while cutlery and the care of everyday tools remained central. Sharpening and engraving extend the offer beyond choosing a new knife or utensil. In-store collection is available Monday through Saturday during opening hours once availability is confirmed. Contact the shop first to discuss suitability, timing and arrangements. Find the shop at Via Ponte Vetero 17, 20121 Milan; the listed telephone is +39 02 8646 1146. See the [Via Ponte Vetero shop page](https://www.lorenzimilano.com/il-negozio-via-ponte-vetero-17/) for its own location information. ## Textiles with a long Milanese lineage Ditta Guenzati traces its beginnings to Giuseppe Guenzati in 1768. After leaving its historic premises in October 2018, the business moved to Via Agnello 8. The current shop keeps a long textile trade in the present tense: the history matters, but today’s address is the one to seek out. Its published range moves between cloth and finished accessories: tweed, suiting fabrics and tartan sit alongside hats, knitwear and accessories. The shop is at Via Agnello 8, 20121 Milan; +39 02 8646 0423 and dittaguenzati1768@gmail.com are listed for contact. Check the [contact page](https://www.dittaguenzati.com/contatti) for current hours. ## A department store at the Duomo La Rinascente offers a different scale from the specialist shops. On Piazza del Duomo, the department store brings fashion, design, beauty, homeware and food together, with a dining area and panoramic terrace. For public transport, Duomo station is on metro line M1. Consult the [Milan store page](https://www.rinascente.it/it/store-milano) for current hours and services. ## Build the day around an interest For a design-led visit, pair 10 Corso Como’s shop with its Gallery and Project Room. For materials and objects, compare the textile selection at Ditta Guenzati with Coltelleria Lorenzi’s cutlery and care services. To keep shopping close to the city’s landmark centre, add La Rinascente on Piazza del Duomo. These groupings help shape a day by interest; use a current map to plan the order that works for you. ## A few useful details 10 Corso Como publishes daily shop hours of 10:30–19:30. For Lorenzi, confirm item availability before arranging in-store collection. Guenzati and La Rinascente direct visitors to their own pages for current hours and services. The contact details and shop links above make it easy to check the point that matters before leaving.
