| What nationality are you, how old are you and how good is your Italian? You'll do better if you can speak some Italian, because even though most Italian girls can speak some English, they're not as comfortable when conversing in English. Not a showstopper, but something to bear in mind.
Most very beautiful girls (SHBs) are arrogant, I don't think this is a specifically Italian trait. They're arrogant because they get hit on several times every day by a boatload of AFCs, so they know they've got what it takes to drive men wild. The normal advice to break through the bitch shield applies here as well, be cocky but funny (never rude), maintain relaxed but positive body language, handle their shit tests correctly, never yield to her commands, just show her you're not fazed by her beauty because you're used to being in the company of beautiful women all the time, etc.
As for opening one liners, you can also use the fact that you're foreign to your advantage and just open with a straight-forward "your country is beautiful, you're lucky to be living here" type remark. She'll inevitably respond with "thanks, where do you come from?" and you can work it from there. Even if she just replies with a curt "thanks," you can then ask her which part of Italy she's from and then tell her where you're from, why you're in Italy, etc. This worked really well for me because Italians are generally very passionate and patriotic about their country and want to educate foreigners about it.
I once had a long conversation in a club with an Italian girl who was telling me all about the different regions and accents of Italy. This subject's a gold mine territory because you can counter with doing imitations of people's accents from your country to make her laugh (my terrible 'Mish Monnehpenneh' Sean Connery accent almost made her pee in her pants), get some kino going when talking about how Italian people seem so touchy feely to you ("even the guys are always squeezing my shoulder like this which never happens in England", whilst you squeeze her shoulder briefly to 'demonstrate,' etc.).
Beware (depending on in which region of Italy you are and how old your targets are) that some Italian girls have quite fervent religious beliefs and they will not just give it up for a one night stand no matter how well you game them and how much they fancy you. It's nothing personal, they're just looking for a LTR, they're looking for "the one". This seemed to apply to other Mediterranean women, too (disclaimer: I only have experience with Spanish, Italian, Greek and Turkish girls from the Med region).
