Italian design

NEW YORK - If you put the Metropolitan Museum of Art in a blender, you might end up with something like TEFAF New York.

Italian designer Sabato De Sarno has been named the new creative director of Gucci and will unveil his first collection during Milan Fashion Week next September, Gucci and parent company Kering announced Saturday.

De Sarno has previously worked for Prada, Dolce & Gabbana and Valentino, where he was most recently fashion director overseeing both men's and women's collections.

The Athenian version of Open House, an event that first started in London in 1992 to promote appreciation of architecture by the general public, will see a selection of public and private buildings that represent distinct styles and trends spanning different centuries opening their doors to anyone who would like to look around inside.
