خلفية ثقافية
In Milan, being 'in voga' is almost a professional requirement. The city's economy and social life revolve around identifying and setting these trends. The nautical origin of the phrase is a point of pride for Venetians, as it links modern language to their glorious past as a naval power. While global trends are often 'in voga', Italy often starts counter-trends like 'Slow Food', which then become 'in voga' globally. In the 1950s (La Dolce Vita era), certain Italian styles became 'in voga' internationally, such as the Vespa and specific sunglasses.
