In one of the promotional posters of the documentary film, he and she appear, lying on a very white mattress. Ferragni’s hair appears like that of the head of the Medusa decapitated by Perseus. The launch has also coincided with a clumsy advertising campaign of the Italian Ministry of Tourism – with a Botticelli’s Venus as a virtual ‘influencer’- which one art critic dismissively described as “something in the style of Ferragni”.

criticized, admired and even studied by universities as prestigious as the American harvard, Chiara Ferragni (Cremona, 1987) represents, like no one else, the strength of an industry that today, more than ever, does business with appearance. Ferragni raised his company ten years ago around herself (blonde hair, blue eyes, always very expensive clothes), after opening a blog with some success, ‘The Blonde Salad’. And from there she created a global brand, which is now an empire (valued about 40 million euros in 2020).

On Twitter, more than 700,000. And, in parallel, they have also written hundreds of articlesreviews, reports and interviews, about his life and that of his partner, both also very often attentive to the most heated debates in their country.

It happened, for example, shortly before elections in Italy, when Ferragni charged against Giorgia Meloni, for her stance against the right to abortion in the transalpine country. “Now is our time to act and make sure that these things do not happen & rdquor ;, he said then, giving, once again, what to talk about. At the last Sanremo festival, she made her debut as a presenter wearing impressive dresses with a protest message.
