Quotable: Which editrix has over 4,000 pairs of shoes?
Anna Dello Russo is a lesson in opulence. The self-dubbed “czarina” sat down with the Financial Times to talk about her need for more closet space to accommodate her massive shoe collection (it puts Imelda Marcos’ stockpile to shame):
“When I moved house 10 years ago, I had 4,000 pairs of shoes. I had to buy a bigger home to store all the clothes because I need closets, not kitchens, and many are now in my house in Bari [in the southern Puglia region]. I’m super tidy so every item is catalogued, stored in garment bags with tissue paper, perfumed and on hangers that are all the same.”
