This charming building, still named after its first owner, the local banker Luca Pitti, is now home to prestigious museums, including the Galleria d'Arte Moderna and the famous Museum of Fashion and Costume. The latter is a must-visit for fashion and history enthusiasts, where you can admire creations by renowned artists and craftsmen who have made the Made in Italy brand famous worldwide. The Museum rotates its collections for conservation reasons and organizes thematic and monographic exhibitions dedicated to famous Italian and foreign designers, such as Valentino, Armani, Versace, Pucci, Missoni, and Yves Saint Laurent.
Among the oldest and most precious garments preserved here are the sixteenth-century funeral garments of Cosimo I de' Medici, Eleonora di Toledo and their son Garzia, which are permanently exhibited. These represent an interesting overview of the fashions that have succeeded from the 18th century to the present day showing how fashion has been influenced by culture, politics, art, and society of each era.
