Abs Fab

Holy sexy, shirtless swimsuit models, Batman! Admittedly it was hard to focus on anything like lessons about life or fashion when that kind of Italian beef is being paraded about. But somehow I've managed to scrounge together a list of some learnings from this week's Milan adventures.

So forget the museums and restaurants when you're in Milan, just head straight to the DSQUARED2 offices. That's evidently where they're keeping the true treasures of Italy. And by that I mean hot Italian models parading around in what may be the world's skimpiest swimwear. Now I understand why Brad wanted to swing by Dan and Dean Caten's studio (besides networking and building a relationship, etc.). And while that blazer Dan and Dean gave Brad was awesome, I kind of would have died had they given Brad a matching swimsuit set for him and Gary. Nothing says Europe quite like a good Speedo.

Don't let Gary take photos. Or at least don't let Gary drink tons of Italian espresso and then try and take a photo. He must have taken about twenty of the same photo of Brad. And while I could see that maybe Brad would be a bit more picky about how it comes out since it was for his Details blog, I can't imagine that it would have taken so many shots get one decent picture. It did make for yet another cute couple moment between Brad and Gary though.

In addition to stopping by the DSQUARED2 offices, you should probably take in a DSQUARED2 fashion show as well. Brad went to a number of great shows in Milan, but only DQUARED2 had sexy swimwear and a choreographed dance routine involving high kicks. And that's really how you leave a memorable impression. You want people to think that in your clothes you too will be ripped and be able to perform incredible acrobatic feats with the greatest of ease.
