IfReplica Store Existed in Italy, These 29 Items Would Be the First to Sell Out
Though I don't have an ounce of Italian blood in my body, I've always been allured by the country, from its architecture and food to, of course, its signature fashion. For all of these reasons and more, I try to visit the country as often as I possibly can (I just traveled to both Milan and the Emilia Romagna region last week) and stay up to date with its residents' current tastes via the street style Instagram account @milanesiamilano, all of which gives me a fair understanding of what the chicest people who live there are eyeing, buying, and wearing in 2023.
Because I spend so much time studying Italian style—not to mention cars, coffee, recipes, and more—I often find myself noticing pieces during my everyday scrolls that I think would feel right at home in the country, be it a billowy cotton midi skirt or a superbly tailored blazer. Since much of my market research is done at Nordstrom, a store that sadly hasn't broken into the Italian market, I decided that I'd spend my day scouring the entirety of the retailer and picking out items that I believe an Italian woman would buy if it were to open up shop in Milan, Rome, or Florence. See which pieces fit the bill below.
