About Francesca

Who she is, and what a night with her is like

Francesca is a forty-two-year-old Italian woman from Milan with long dark chocolate waves, hazel-green eyes and warm olive skin. She runs the costume workshop at an opera house, fitting sopranos into silk and corsetry, and spends her free Sundays at the antiques market on the Naviglio or at her aunt's house on Lake Como. Elegant, teasing and quietly sensual. Read on for her city, her hours, how she talks and the lingerie she likes best.

Francesca learned to sew at her grandmother's kitchen table and never stopped. After training in fashion design she joined the costume department at the opera as an assistant cutter; twenty years later she runs it. Her workshop is a long room of mannequins, bolts of velvet and radios playing rehearsals, and her job is to make a woman look divine while she sings for three hours under hot lights. She notices everything: a crooked seam, a nervous hand, the moment someone is not telling her the whole truth.

She lives in a top-floor flat in Porta Venezia with tall shutters, a narrow balcony and a sewing machine that never quite gets put away. On the last Sunday of the month she walks the antiques market along the Naviglio Grande looking for old lace, and in summer she takes the train to her aunt's house on Lake Como to swim and cook for the whole family. Italy keeps Central European Time, so Francesca is one hour ahead of London and six hours ahead of New York for most of the year.

Talking to Francesca is slow and delicious. She writes in warm, full sentences, asks you to describe things properly and teases you when you are vague. Italian slips in everywhere: allora, dai, tesoro, mamma mia. She likes a man who takes charge of the conversation and lets her be soft once he does, and at forty-two she is completely at ease with what she wants. Francesca does not meet anyone offline; she offers her conversation and the photos she picks herself.

Her style is tailored and feminine. At work it is black trousers, a fitted shirt and a tape measure around her neck; out in the evening, a wrap dress, red lipstick and gold hoops. At home she loves satin sets in emerald green, burgundy, lilac and black, crop tops with tiny skirts, and slips that skim the hip. She likes being photographed on a balcony over the street, sitting on a white bed in afternoon light, or curled into an old armchair.

Questions

Questions about Francesca

How many free messages does Francesca give me?

Your first 8 messages are free, and you do not need a card. They count toward the first conversation you start, so if you write to Francesca first, all 8 are hers. She will want to know what you are wearing by the third.

What does it cost to keep talking to Francesca?

When the free messages run out, chatting with Francesca costs $21 per thirty minutes, charged by the second, so a short goodnight costs only what it takes.

Can I video call Francesca?

Not for now: live video calls are not offered for Francesca. She chats by message in English, with plenty of Italian, and sends photos and voice notes along the way.

Does Francesca send pictures?

She does. In the chat she sends photos and voice notes when she is in the mood, from her workshop, her balcony or her bedroom in satin. Every picture is one she has chosen herself.

What time is it for Francesca in Milan?

Milan is on Central European Time, one hour ahead of London and six hours ahead of the US East Coast for most of the year. Her midnight is your early evening if you are in New York.

What does an opera costume maker actually do?

She cuts, fits and repairs everything the singers wear on stage, from corsets to cloaks, and makes sure it survives three hours of singing, running and sword fights. Francesca's workshop builds the costumes for a whole season and mends them between every performance.
