Born and raised in MILAN, I carried out my studies between Italy, the U.S. and Mexico, and achieved two degrees in Foreign Languages (2011) and Business Communications (2013) - the latter, with an angle on EVENT PLANNING.
My professional journey gave me the chance to join exciting and challenging projects WORLDWIDE: São Paulo, Milan, Venice, Rome, Dubai, Abu Dhabi. For over a decade, I worked in the luxury hospitality industry and looked after various HOTEL OPENINGS, leading commercial strategy, market positioning, food & beverage operations and, naturally, the event cycle A to Z.
Working for MAJOR BRANDS – such as Marriott International, EDITION, Nikki Beach, Meliá, The St. Regis and Giorgio Armani – equipped me with a solid corporate foundation and a multifaceted view on the luxury landscape’s dynamics.
The fil rouge has always been planning and executing LUXURY EVENTS, both for private and corporate clients: from international weddings to pop-up fashion shows, from high-end product launches to opulent gala dinners, and the list goes on.
My daily inspiration is found in the MEDITERRANEAN and the MIDDLE EASTERN cultures: warm, elegant, kind.
In 2024, I launched La Sil, my own consultancy project.
The Project
This project’s name is naturally very PERSONAL.
My name, Silvia, comes from the Latin word silva, meaning forest. Such a short name does not necessarily call for a nickname, but some friends call me Sil or Silvi. And in Milan, we tend to use an article in front of a first name (il or la, meaning the), if the person concerned is close to us: a sibling, a cousin, a longtime friend. This is grammatically incorrect, we know it. But there is such a strong dimension of familiarity in it that we let the irregularity slip with affection: isn’t it for a noble cause, after all?
La Sil is who I am, and it is also my first statement of proximity to you: I offer professional consultancy with that human touch that makes the difference.
GRAZIE MILLE for your trust.
