Margherita Missoni adorefashionlooks My mother, grandmother and I all have different styles, but we share the same taste. Margherita Missoni styledifferentmother My grandmother told me that to be in fashion, one must be young and passionate about the work. At this moment, every aspect of my life is permeated by fashion - everything has a reference to my job. Margherita Missoni passionategrandmotherfashion I think when you grow up living next to your grandparents and cousins and you're 300 meters from the family offices and the setting of your after-school games is the fashion atelier, it can be hard to see yourself as an individual.

This is something I would like for my children to experience. Margherita Missoni experiencehometimechildren I think that clothes and accessories define and describe who we are.

It has advantages and disadvantages. It's like an older style of living where everyone works in the family business. Margherita Missoni stylefamilybusinesslife When we were children, every day after school, my brother and sister and I would go to my mother's office. It was full of pencils and marker and fabrics and beads. It was so much fun to be a child and to express my creativity through drawing and to playing dress-up in all of the wonderful and colorful clothes. Margherita Missoni daybrothermotherchildren I come from a family of compulsive collectors, and my first memories are really all about collecting.

Margherita Missoni familymotherhomememories I grew up in the countryside with the factory here, my house 200 metres away, my grandma's house 50 metres away, in a kind of old-style Italian society where everyone works for the family business, everyone lives nearby, and the people you spend your time with are your family. Margherita Missoni youfamilybusinesstime I'm the only one in my family who doesn't cook, but I can do a Swiss dish called frittatensuppe.

Margherita Missoni daylookyouvision I've been eating a porridge of millet for breakfast, something that my doula recommended I eat. It doesn't taste that great, but it's supposed to be really nourishing for the baby, and you're not supposed to eat any gluten when you're pregnant. I've been making pancakes out of it and add berries. Margherita Missoni greatyoueatingbreakfast I go to bed early, and normally before I do, I have a tea - it's a special tea that my doula gave me, and it takes about 25 minutes to make!
