Fashion label Moschino converts an old Milan rail station into a new hotel VIEW PHOTOS »
The Moschino design team painstakingly restored the exterior of the former 1840s rail station on a thoroughfare in Milan to create the hotel Maison Moschino.
Upon entry, the influence of the Italian fashion house is evident with signature Moschino lampshade dresses that are actually used to illuminate the space.
Guestrooms mainly were kept spare, except for one defining element. In the Life is a Bed of Roses room the rose-petal-covered bedspread and chair and cascade of red petals from the chandelier contrast with the white walls and window treatments.
The Sleeping in a Ballgown room features a Moschino dress draped over the headboard down to the floor to make guests feel as though they are sleeping within the hem of the luxury garment.
Moschino fashions also are displayed in the restaurant, Clandestino Milano, where the inventive menu is as whimsical as the interior decor—breakfast items come served in a shoebox-like tray called the Mos Kit.
