In 2012, Salvatore Ferragamo was involved in a project combining art and history. The company sponsored the Saint Anne – Leonardo Da Vinci's Ultimate Masterpiece exhibition at the Louvre museum in Paris between 29 March and 25 June 2012. To mark the occasion, Giornetti presented the Salvatore Ferragamo women's resort 2013 collection in the Lourve's Denon Wing, marking the first time that the museum had opened its internal spaces for a fashion show. Supermodels, including Bianca Balti, Isabeli Fontana, Karolína Kurková, and Karmen Pedaru, paraded on a 140-metre (460-foot) catwalk in front of over 500 VIP guests.
In 2013, Salvatore Ferragamo was the title sponsor of the inaugural evening of the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills, California, where Giornetti presented the Salvatore Ferragamo spring/summer 2014 collection, highlighted by evening gowns designed especially for the occasion and inspired by the brand's founding in Hollywood almost 100 years ago.
