Many may be surprised to know that their beloved jeans originated in the shipyards of Genoa. In the 15th century, a strong cotton fabric was used for making sails.

Later, it was dyed blue, fashioned into work trousers and exported under the name ‘Bleu de Gênes’. At a three-day retreat at Splendido, A Belmond Hotel in Portofino, join us for an immersive celebration of jeans. Enjoy visits to Museum Diocesano, where jeans serve as canvases for paintings, and to Palazzo Reale’s denim-clad nativity figures.

Get creative with clothes and accessories in master workshops and join inspiring conversations over cocktails.
