An exclusive lunch at Ribot Restaurant celebrates the elegance of Veronica Marucci Chapeaux between haute couture and haute cuisine
There is a moment in the life of fashion when everything stops to leave room for authentic beauty: that which comes from the encounter of different cultures, passions, and languages. On Oct. 14, 2025, at Ribot Restaurant, where Veronica Marucci Chapeaux’s Parisian sophistication meets Italian gastronomic tradition in a placé lunch that combines art, taste, and style in a unique harmony.
The event, conceived by Serena Spinucci and Laura Fabiano and curated by Ludovica Ligresti in collaboration with Veronica Marucci Chapeaux and Ribot Restaurant, transforms a simple convivial gathering into a sensory and cultural experience, where every detail speaks of elegance, balance and aesthetic awareness.
Elegance as a universal language
Parisian by adoption, but Italian by heart and roots, Veronica Marucci is a hat designer who has transformed the hat into a statement of identity. Grace and strength, measure and boldness coexist in her creations: each model tells a story, each curve holds a thought.
During the prestigious The Queen’s Hat Exhibition in Milan, the designer was awarded in the “Celebrity” section for a work that has become a symbol of freedom and lightness of spirit. A recognition that today finds natural continuity in this refined lunch, where her art has merged with the essence of Milanese taste.
Ribot: the perfect scene for a dialogue between art and flavor
Ribot Restaurant, with its timeless and intimate atmosphere, is transformed into a stage of shared beauty. The soft lighting, delicate notes and the scent of dishes signed by the in-house chefs give life to a tale that combines haute couture and haute cuisine, two universes seemingly distant but united by the same principle: the search for harmony.
Embellishing the experience was the presence of exponents from the world of fashion, art and design, along with well-known faces from the Milanese scene, brought together in an atmosphere of authentic elegance, where every word had the flavor of connection and shared pleasure.
Beauty in the details
Each element of the event is designed to evoke an emotion:
– Perrier-Jouët Champagne, for a feminine toast with floral charm;
– Venini art glass creations, which illuminated the tables like sculptures of light;
– Porsche, a symbol of style and mechanical perfection, to seal the marriage of art and design.
A meeting of cultures and sensitivities
When Paris meets Milan, a synergy is born that has no boundaries. The city of savoir-faire and the city of excellence come together in a dialogue made of respect, passion and creativity. And this is precisely the deepest sense of the initiative: to tell how beauty can cross languages and flavors, transforming itself into experience and memory.
In a fast-paced world, this event invites us to slow down, to listen, to find in taste and fashion the same essence: that of the art of living.
And so, between a hat and a soufflé, a toast and a smile, Milan and Paris really do meet-under the sign of a beauty that does not impose itself, but remains.
