Multimillionaire GIANLUCA VACCHI shares his OTT playboy lifestyle with 11 million followers. Liz Jones meets the man who’s more interested in posing in his pants than making money.

Gianluca Vacchi is the man that readers of Mr Porter, Esquire et al probably aspire to be. And yet, when we meet in his apartment in Milan, in a lovely old building sandwiched between the Stella McCartney and Balenciaga stores, its plush, mostly red and purple velvet décor, he makes an astonishing confession. Despite working out for an hour and a half every day, he says, ‘I look in the mirror and think I’m fat. I never like myself in pictures or whatever. I’ve been very shy. I never had the courage to talk to girls.’
