Island Patrol

MC presents the artist who turned the stone and the light of Mykonos into jewellery.

He began his fashion odyssey when he was 17 years old and ended up in Mykonos. With shops in Rome and London, and Monica Bellucci and Sharon Stone charmed by his designs, the internationally acclaimed designer, Dimitris Halvatzis, seems to be the protagonist for a style impregnated in sunlight and Mykonian flair!

What is your business activity today? 

A few interesting ideas on the island’s development. Not by a politician, but by a person who experiences Mykonos as he should, as a citizen.

The young, dynamic Mykonian.Her specialty, the square metres of real estate and her vision, a Mykonos that will become the absolute premium-class tourist destination. She’s not into stylistic cutbacks and, despite the general dourness, she is sure that anyone who bets on Mykonos will be on a winning streak.

Don’t rush into conclusions. Giorgos Tsangkarakis has a healthy obsession: Mykonos!

Beauty is everyone’s fervent wish. Despoina Gavala knows its secrets well, but fortunately she does not keep them to herself. On the contrary…

Were you born here or were you naturalized a Mykonian?

Objectively, I believe that I was naturalized a Mykonian. I experienced a rebirth here on the island.

What personality, past or present, has left his or her mark on Mykonos and why?
