Demna changed the rhythm of the night in Milan by bringing together front-row guests and runway talent for a late dinner at Il Bolognese, underscoring Gucci’s ability to assemble a cross-generational circle. The meal began in the restaurant’s courtyard, where Negronis loosened the formalities after his Spring 2027 presentation.
The Story in Pictures
The guest list read like a map of entertainment and fashion: Shawn Mendes and Bruna Marquezine joined Edward Norton, while Camila Morrone arrived in a black dress topped by a large white faux fur. Lindsey Vonn wore a black leather jacket, monogrammed pumps and a matching Horsebit bag. Photographer Jacques Burga circulated with his camera, capturing arrivals before the group moved inside to the dining room.
Music producer Loïk set the soundtrack, shifting from Pino Calvi to La dolce vita and then to Mina’s Il cielo in una stanza, a sequence that kept the evening rooted in Italian atmosphere. The room expanded further as Keke Palmer and Anok Yai took seats with Bianca Jagger, Nadia Lee Cohen sat with Manu Ríos, and other attendees included Aryna Sabalenka, Naomi Watts, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Romeo Beckham, Alton Mason, Bloody Osiris and YT.
The dinner itself was straightforwardly Italian, with Catalan prawns, eggplant parmigiana, Gavi and Pinot Nero on the table and tiramisù to finish. As courses passed, the gathering felt less like a post-show entourage and more like a social constellation uniting different generations and cultural spheres under one roof.
By the end of the night the event had made clear that the people around Gucci are not limited to a single scene: actors, musicians, athletes and models mingled on equal footing. The evening suggested that the brand’s social ecosystem will continue to fold disparate worlds together well beyond the runway, as Milan’s Good Friday stretched into late-night conversation and music.
