Is The Staff At The First Missoni Hotel Wearing T-Shirts?

August 12, 2009 at 3:47 PM | by JetSetCD | 0 Comments

Although the first Missoni Hotel has been open now in Edinburgh, Scotland for over two months, not many pictures or reviews have come out of it. We want to see every striped nook and polka-dotted cranny of that place, and especially what the staff is wearing.

Luckily Flickr yields a few tantalizing pictures, like this one of the dizzyingly patterned crockery in the Missoni Cucina. Still, this is a fashion hotel and its bartenders and room attendants and waiters have got to be wearing the chicest hotel duds this side of the Versace Resorts, right?

Wrong. From the brief glances we've seen, it looks like the staff is outfitted with T-shirts and maybe a fancy Missoni-print apron. Check out the servers attending to the Missoni Family themselves; they're kitted out in black T-shirts, and the bartenders at a recent screening party of the Vogue movie "The September Issue" get a white shirt with a vaguely Missoni black graphic. Bor-ing!

Say it ain't so, Missoni Hotel! We expected such fabulousness as Rosita Missoni herself sports in that press picture. If we're going to bust out our few pieces of Missoni to have a drink in your lobby, then we'd like to see the staff doing likewise.
