What rocks Purple mag's Olivier Zahm's world in Milano? We got the scoop while killing time waiting for the No. 21 show to start...

1. "I love the Liberty [Art Nouveau] architecture. The Art Deco from Milan is amazing. Each time I see one, I try to take a picture, but it's not easy, because the building are tall and are mostly grey, but I love it."

2. "I love the trattorias. The small ones, not the fancy ones; the little cafes. Any small cafe is very nice. You can eat a little thing at 5 or 6 p.m. and it's fantastic."

3. "My favorite Italian editor is Anna Dello Russo. I was the first person to do a story with her five or six years ago. I also have a lot of good friends here outside of the fashion world."

4. "I like the spa at the Armani hotel. They have a beautiful spa there with a sauna, steam room and huge jacuzzi with a view of the city. It's quite dreamy."

5. "Armani Privé is a nice club downstairs. It's very eighties. I like it! It's my favorite club in Milan, I have to say. Also, it's very convenient so I can go from the spa to club, or vice versa."
