Il paradiso delle signore

One day I stumbled upon this show having no idea really what it was about . All I knew was that it was an Italian show. After watching about three episodes though, it soon became a favorite of mine.

The Show:

Who: Employees of "The Ladies Paradise," and their families and friends, and many other characters throughout the seasons.

What: Stories of people who have things in common and not so much. In most instances, each character is possibly affected in one way or another. Stories of themes around: love, family, drama, compassion and the show is humorous at times too.

When: Mid 1950s, IPDS is a period drama- the costumes are stellar.

Where: Milan, Italy

I'm skipping why.

*Note: The music is one of the best parts of the show in my opinion.

I give the show two thumbs up as well. 👍🏼👍🏼

The show is probably best for those 13 and older.

Unlike the other review, which seems to have been written by a cranky nitpicker who sees joy in nothing, this charming and sweet Italian series makes for relaxing and entertaining viewing. Shot in Milan, Rome and the countryside, it's a fun peek at the Italian styles and mores of the 1950s with a terrific cast. It's fascinating to see how a department store is run from the inside, and the kind of decisions and sacrifices that need to be made to make it successful.

Bravo a good movie series. Reminds me of what movies should be like great acting!🤗🤗🤗nice memories of Italy.can't wait to find season three.please offer other series soon. I'm.

I am praying there is a season 4.

Strolling along on a cold night... I found a soap opera in Italian with English subtitles.

Worth the read since I speak some Spanish and it is a close language.

I am an American/Texan and loved my young life visiting Italy.

I adore the old school vibe which shows the writers creativity. The artistic and creative ways to keep the store open holds my attention.

The hopes of love and help that a few need in the show are clear characters.

I love the torment involving two handsome leading men and Theresa.

Keeping my attention was the insiders vision of business and ex's and new attractions... find a way to bring it all back into play folks!

Americans are really watching. Tired of cop shows here!

After a couple of episodes, I was definitely hooked! Cinematography, costumes, characters, plots and music all take me back to an era long past. I now feel like I'm fluent in Italian! I'm just hoping they produce more episodes. Much better than the crap on American TV!!!

This Italian-language import, set in post WWII Italy, follows Teresa Lorio, a young woman who leaves her small rural Sicilian hometown for Milan. Teresa finds work--and much more--at a newly opened department store: The Ladies' Paradise. Drama, romance, and character tension make this delightful Italian series binge worth!!!!
