This skirt, worn by Edelfa Chiara Masciotta (Miss Italy 2005), was created by the Italian design house Moschino. It also produced more than 80 similar versions for the flag-bearers of the teams at the Opening Ceremony in Turin. However, this skirt is the only one with illumination.

This costume offers a miniature, three-dimensional representation of the city of Turin and the surrounding area. It includes a model of the Mole Antonelliana (Turin’s cathedral). In addition, the mountains, skiers and miniature trees are all reminders of the setting for these Winter Games: the Italian Alps. This costume is therefore a wonderful illustration of the identity of Turin and Piedmont.
