Milan's Bigi ties receive recognition from the Robb Report

Rome - Made in Italy products have reaped honours among the more than 150 brands being commended in the luxury realm. The Robb Report, the guide to modern luxury, has announced the names of the winners of the 29th Annual Best of the Best Awards, by giving an award to more than 150 luxury brands which include the Italian firm Bigi Cravatte Milano.

The complete list, published on the June issue of the New York magazine, is a true guide for connoisseurs listing the best from the world of yachting, automobiles, watches, wines, hotels, fashion and accessories. "We are honoured to have been awarded this recognition," said Stefano and Paola Bigi, owners of Bigi Cravatte Milano. "It is certainly an important achievement for our company. For three generations, we have been committed to meeting the requirements of men with a taste for fashion who select refined and high quality products. We expect our 'Made in Italy' products to a select number of points of sale across the world. We are grateful to the Robb Report, to our staff which has been working with dedication, love and competency, to guarantee unique products, to anyone who, day after day, chooses to wear the elegance of a signature tie by Bigi."

However, style was not the only category acknowledged at the 29th Annual Best of the Best Awards. The Robb Report also selected a number of other brand winners: for the 'Cars' category, including sports cars, sedans, convertibles, GTs, SUVs and motorbikes; the 'Travel' category, including hotels, resorts, holiday homes, cruises, trains, spa facilities and golf clubs; the 'Lifestyle' category, including dining, wines, liquers and cigars; the 'Home' category, accounting for interior decoration, art, auctions and electronics; and the 'Aviation' and the 'Marine' categories, including superyachts, sailboats, speedboats, yachts concepts, and private jets. Brett Anderson, editor-in-chief of the Robb Report said that "choosing among exceptional products, services and projects from all over the world is not an easy task for an editorial staff.

The selection began one year ago and, at the end, the choices have been inspired not only by our absolute passion for excellence -which is paramount- but also by people, places and creations, which speak to our imagination in a universal language." In addition to being selected by the Robb Report for top quality standards, this year's winners were scrutinised for the story of their brand, their experience and their capability of being updated at all times.
