The 2025 Sanremo Music Festival highlights five talented stylists. Simone Furlan (Sifu), a 1992-born artist with a background in art history, has created a vintage-contemporary style for Lazza, Madame, Mara Sattei, and Sarah Toscano, drawing inspiration from "Amarcord." Antonio Pulvirenti, a self-taught stylist born in 1995, has been collaborating with Tony Effe since 2022, focusing on historically inspired designs for the festival. Giulia Cova, born in 1994, crafts unique looks for Elodie, reinterpreting classic icons. From Naples, Riccardo Maria Chiacchio brings a cinematic flair to Joan Thiele, influenced by childhood myths. Lastly, Francesco Vavallo, born in 1998, designs haute couture silhouettes for Clara that complement her song "Febbre." Each stylist's creativity will be on display at the festival.
