The exotic car world has now become familiar with the name Pagani, the moniker assigned to the supercars designed by Horacio Pagani who takes great inspiration from Da Vinci as he painstakingly sculpts some of the fastest cars on the planet. As he began making good on his promise of a little sister to his benchmark Zonda of 1999, the design of which has since been put in the vault, his vision of Renaissance-meets-the-modern-world on the asphalt has taken a very provocative turn. Though younger, no less the wiser, and dare we say more wicked, the Huayra, named after the…

AND THE STARS CAME OUT Italian aristocracy, Parisian panache, Hollywood glamour; these three ingredients made up the recipe for the red carpet decadence that Italian jeweler Fulco di Verdura, a Sicilian duke, became famous for. Growing up on the warm shores of Palermo, Verdura enjoyed the richness of the land and later used his love of the verdant color palette to paint in jeweled pigments.
