Lapo Elkann – A man belonging to a different era launches his latest project
This week, Lapo Elkann launched Garage Italia Customs in an old fuel station in Milan. The company has the capability to cover your car, motorcycle or yacht in materials of the same colour as your favourite jumper, suit or tie and at its debut, this Italian eccentric unsurprisingly dressed in his typically stylish fashion.
