For the third year in a row, Prada supported Un Fiore per la Ricerca 2018, a fundraising evening in support of the work carried out by the National Tumour Institute of Milan to treat and research cancer in children.

The dinner was held at the Torre restaurant at Fondazione Prada and was hosted by actress Sarah Felberbaum (nominated for best actress at the 2011 David di Donatello awards for her performance in The Jewel), who entertained guests and involved them in the auction. The food was prepared by chef Norbert Niederkofler, who has three Michelin stars to his name. 28 lots, donated by both individuals and businesses, went under the hammer, including an invitation to the launch of the AC75 Luna Rossa boat, which will compete in the 36th America’s Cup, a pair of Prada Made to Order décolleté shoes, a necklace from the Miu Miu Classic Jewels collection, a photo portrait from Giovanni Gastel and a selection of Flos table lamps, created by leading contemporary designers.
