5. 11th edition of Convivio set to be hosted in Milan again. Convivio is an AIDS fundraiser that was launched in 1992 by Gianni Versace. Some of the most prominent fashion houses will sell pieces from their collections at up to 50 percent off the original prices. All proceeds will benefit Italian nonprofit organization ANLAIDS.

Vogue Italia's editor, Franca Sozzani said,
“I hope to see the same involvement and commitment in Milan for Convivio, which is a logo known all over the world and which tries to fight AIDS in a different way.”
Convivio will be running from June 8-12. [
