While on a weekend getaway in Florence, Italy, Mia Moretti talks fashion, music and style that never takes a break.

LUISAVIAROMA caught up with international DJ and fashion style star Mia Moretti while she was in Florence for a weekend getaway. Moretti has collaborated with some of the top names in the business including Katy Perry (Perry said she even inspired one of her songs!) and has spinned for the hottest clubs, festivals and parties, including Chelsea Clinton’s wedding.

Musical talent aside, the fashion world adores Moretti  and her eclectic look. She has been the face of many international campaigns and worked on numerous collaborations. For Moretti, style is everything. Hers is authentic, she tells a story with everything that she wears.

Tell us about being a DJ and playing music for a crowd of people?
Every time I DJ it’s very different. Whether it’s a festival or a huge club or a small intimate fashion  after-party, the experience is completely unique. For example, when you have the energy of a large crowd there is a lot of energy going around. It feeds off the person next to you, it’s like a bouncy ball in a room that reflects and carries what people are feeling, it is incredible. You have to experience it, to feel it. It is so special.

You have played in world’s most exclusive clubs and in some super exclusive parties such Chelsea Clinton’s wedding. What’s important on days like these?
When I have a big gig, the most important thing is to feel fantastic. I have to love what I’m wearing. I use my outfit to step out of whatever mood I am in and put on the mood of the evening.

No one wants a tired, jet-lagged or cranky DJ , we are the life of the party, we cannot bring a bad mood to work.

You have been Blonde, Brunette, wearing both vintage and avant-garde looks. When you are out of the spotlight what do you love to wear?
I’m a traveler, a wanderer, a gypsy, I’m always on an adventure. I like wearing something that tells the hidden story about the adventure I’m on at the moment.

Clothing has the capacity to change how you feel about yourself, it is a character that you are stepping into for the night. 

What’s the perfect look to wear during a summer music festival without losing an inch of your coolness?
A silk scarf and a classy sunglasses will take you to any festival flawlessly.

Clothes play a major role, they are my drug – they can take me anywhere.

You are always on the road. Can you give us some packing tips?
I do travel a lot! I am always packing and unpacking my suitcase. The most important thing is to study what you pack. One thing I always do is go for a color palette. I think about it like decorating a room. There are so many circumstances that can change, but if everything is in the same color tone or family, it will all work. It doesn’t have to be all blue or red, but if all the colors work with together, there are more options to mix and match, and each piece has an opportunity to be worn.

What are your thoughts on love and relationships?
I think love is a beautiful thing, but I think we put too many boundaries on it. I think of love like a flower, it is a beautiful thing to enjoy while it is alive, and it is beautiful to let it go of as well. I think there are many loves to have, to enjoy, and to let go of.
