Kelly Wearstler travels the way she designs: with curiosity, precision, and an eye for what most people walk past. Travel is central to her work, serving as both an essential practice and the jumping off point for much of her creative inspiration. It provides a continuous influx of fresh perspectives, textures, and architectural ideas that directly inform her design language. Milan holds a particular place in that archive. It's a city that takes beauty seriously without making a performance of it: its finest interiors sit behind unmarked doors, its best courtyards visible only once you've passed through the gate. Kelly has returned many times, and each visit leaves something behind in the studio. This guide, made in partnership with Chase Sapphire Reserve, is an invitation to pay that same kind of attention.
Kelly's Milan
The hotels she actually stays in, the restaurants where the dining room matters as much as the menu, the institutions worth the detour. With Chase Sapphire Reserve, cardmembers get Kelly’s recommendations and access to the places and discoveries that shaped how she sees the city, and every city after.
Milan doesn't give itself up easily. You have to return, pay attention, earn it. Chase Sapphire Reserve has been part of how I've done that quietly, for years, long before there was a campaign around it.
