Italian shoemaker Giuseppe Zanotti celebrated the launch of the Giuseppe Zanotti Design Shop in Hong Kong. Designer Giuseppe Zanotti – who lends his name to the brand – was in town with the Fall/Winter 2009 collection to mark the occasion and to participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony. Artistes Sonija Kwok and Leannne Li joined Zanotti for the ceremony while a slew of prominent socialites were drawn to the launch by the new wares from the brand.
