InstaMeetItalia the first Italian InstaMeet in Milano
.
.
Last Saturday , September 24th was an important day for our Italian Instagramers buddies. The day of their First Global Italian #InstaMeet.
@IgersItalia @IgersMilano and several other groups (see whole list here below) held the first important concentration of users in Milano during the famous #MFW that´s to say Milano Fashion Week.
As a “proof formula”, an InstaWalk was first proposed to Igers who joined the event.
Starting in front of the Milanese Cathedral, Il Duomo, a group of around 100 people got instructions from our Italian Team and received all the details about the different contests organized (and sponsored) by our different partners.

Fun and Sun!
.
During the sunny and pleasant Instawalk, pedestrian could easily recognize Instagramers walking down the streets with their “The Fugu project” Designed black shirts and consulting their WhaiWhai Guides of Milan.
At night, more than 150 members joined the “Insta-cocktail party” at Beauty shop Sephora located at Corso vittorio emanuele 24/28.
The event was mainly sponsored by @donnamoderna , main media partner and famous fashion Italian magazine.
.
As a very cool idea @IgersItalia thought about creating “huge Polaroid Black boards” where pictures were sticked as there were printed “live” with Epson Printers directly from users IPhones. Pics were “liked” by the participants with round red stickers and then “short listed” by a jury of Instagramers ManIgers.
.
Cocktail, DJ´s and Awards.
.
The InstaMeet counted with a the presence of a complete team of bloggers, a groovy duo of famous Djs in Milan called “DJ Homeless ” and a live webcam transmitting the event through DonnaModerna website. A real social 3.0 communication network!
After a speech from Daniela Cerrato On-line manager of DonnaModerna, Ilaria Barbotti from Instagramers Italia, Orazio Spoto and myself rendered thanks to all participants and awarded 10 of our IGers in the different categories of contest under hashtags like #instameetItalia #Accessoriami #donnamoderna …
The winners receive great gifts from our partners DonnaModerna, Epson, Keepsy, Sephora, Stickygram, … (see all list below)
People had lots of fun, shared their addictions, theirs nicks and Pics.
Smiles and laughs, a good atmosphere posted directly to IG that reached instantly and in many occasion most “Populars” all over the planet. Even hilarious @Osnuflaz and his famous T-rex were present!
At the end of the event, we received the visit of Luca Aniana aka @Luka04 , founder of @photooftheday.
