Nuovelle Vague “In mezzo alle donne”
Fondazione Doppia Difesa recently presented the new project “In mezzo alle donne” (surrounded by women), an initiative promoted by Michelle Hunziker and Giulia Bongiorno to help the victims of abuse, discrimination and violence.
The gala event at the Spazio Antologico in Milan was preceded by a “musical” aperitif with a DJ set by Malika Ayane and was attended by Foundation testimonials Annalisa Minetti, Fichi d'India, Max Pezzali, Alvin, Gerry Scotti, Ficarra e Picone, Antonio Ricci, the “Veline”, Syria, Demetrio Albertini, Maria Grazia Cucinotta, Geppy Cucciari, Antonio Ornano, Vittorio Brumotti, the Dallan brothers and others, who came to launch the project and celebrate Doppia Difesa’s achievements.
Hosted by Michelle Hunziker and Alessandro Cattelan, the evening included performances by some of the abovementioned artists followed by a highly touching moment when Hunziker sang a duet for the first time with her daughter, Aurora.
The event featured an auction presented by Pucci. The items included the jacket worn by Max Pezzali at Sanremo festival, an autographed sweater belonging to Etò, the two gold medals won at the national championships for the disabled by Annalisa Minetti, an “at home” concert by Malika Ayane, a bicycle ride with Vittorio Brumotti, and a pair of Nouvelle Vague eyeglasses created for the occasion by Paolo Seminara.
The eclectic and generous designer made a single Nouvelle Vague model with the Doppia Difesa logo exclusively for the event and which an enthusiastic Michelle Hunziker modeled and auctioned together with Pucci. The eyeglasses went for 1,500 euro which will be allocated to the camper project "In mezzo alle donne". The mobile unit is equipped to provide free medical, psychological, social and legal consultancy and assistance for women who have been, or are currently, subjected to violence and stalking in Milan and the hinterland.
Paolo Seminara presented Doppia Difesa testimonials singer Malika Ayane and actress Maria Grazia Cucinotta with a pair of exclusive eyewear models with the logo of the foundation that fights to defend the victims of abuse, discrimination and violence.
