The Wilde Club Milano: A Private Oasis of Art and Sophistication in Santo Versace’s Former Villa
February 17, 2025. Restaurants & Bars, The Wilde Club Milano
Milan, the global capital of Italian fashion and design, welcomed The Wilde, an exclusive private club now housed in the former villa of Santo Versace on Via Dei Giardini. Led by a team seasoned in elite venues like London’s The Arts Club and Annabel’s, as well as New York’s EDITION hotels. Architect Fabrizio Casiraghi reimagined the 1950s modernist building by Carlo De Carli and Antonio Carminati, to create a refined and culturally rich environment celebrating Milan’s legacy of style and sophistication.
The Wilde’s architecture and design are rooted in Milan’s classic style, evoking the city’s glamorous past. Casiraghi has infused the interiors with opulent touches—walnut furniture, rose-lacquered wood, plush velvets, and travertine. Unique spaces include a lush garden, a rooftop with panoramic views, and the distinctive Arturo’s cigar Lounge featuring rich brown leathers by Jim Thompson. The club also boasts an extensive art collection, showcasing works by renowned artists such as Andy Warhol, Diane dal Pra, and Nikolai von Bismarck.
A Trio of Dining Experiences
The Wilde’s dining options cater to a range of tastes with three restaurants, each offering a distinct culinary journey. The Club Room and Garden specializes in classic Italian fare and innovative cocktails. NINA serves Latin American and Japanese-inspired dishes, from ceviches to sushi. AVA, located on the rooftop, highlights Mediterranean flavors in an elegant al fresco setting. For a more relaxed experience, the Club’s library serves meals and snacks from breakfast through dinner. An ideal space for casual gatherings.
A Hub for Culture and Community
The Wilde Club Milano is a cultural hub with a robust calendar of events. Members can participate in workshops, attend art exhibitions, or enjoy private film screenings and discussions. The club’s digital platform allows members to book tables, access recordings of events, and connect with others. From creative collaborations to insightful talks, The Wilde fosters a sense of community among Milan’s cultural and creative elite.
