Notes

Milano Cortina 2026: costumes representing the planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Earth, Neptune, Mercury and Mars at the Opening Ceremony. The final segment, “Armonia del Futuro”, paid tribute to three women from different generations: a young girl; Margherita Hack, an Italian astronomer and astrophysicist; and Samantha Cristoforetti, an astronaut with the European Space Agency and the first Italian woman to spend time on board the International Space Station. The dancers’ costumes feature the colours and patterns traditionally associated with the planets of the solar system. Donated by the Fondazione Milano Cortina 2026
