Will the real Milan please stand up. Despite laying low in Rome's ancient shadow for years  - Milan is ready to shine.Hosting American Vogue's "Extreme Beauty in Vogue" exhibition in conjunction with designers Dolce & Gabbana during the forthcoming autumn/winter 2009 fashion week, the city will follow one world-class event with another when it hosts the Expo in 2015.We reveal the look Milan will opt for in 2015.
