Re: [h-cost] friend going to Italy
There is a FABULOUS trim shop in Florence. They actually have 2 locations, at least they did in 2002, when I went. Passamaneria Toscana, Piazza San Lorenzo,12r, is the original store (since the 1950's).

Re: [h-cost] friend going to Italy
In Bolzano, DO NOT MISS the Ice Man. You can see all his clothing and accessories. 5000 year old stitches! South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology http://www.iceman.it/ I recommend arriving first thing in the morning to avoid crowds. In Venice, everything is wonderful. I enjoyed the Palazzo Fortuny, which was once the home of Mariano Fortuny, and is now a museum. There's a Fortuny store as well, although not at the Palazzo. I wanted to go to the island of Burano, for the lace, but didn't have time. It is a beautiful place to visit.
