In Italian, the proper noun Troia refers to the city of Troy.
On other hand the common noun "troia" refers in some regions of Italy to the sow (female pig), which led to the vulgar meaning that most people will associate the word with: "slut", "whore". Another word for "female pig"/"slut" is maiala ("maiale is a male pig).
"Che troia!"

"madonna troia" is a tipical italian angry expression which is used when you are really angry and u wanna shout to the gods to know how much you are angry. Especially in Veneto, we use to say it really often, even if we are not angry at all because it's almost a fashion. So if u come and visit italy, you can spam it as much as you like it and you will make lots of friends in few seconds. Trust me, this is pure pwnage.
*TIP* If you are really angry, u can say "MADONNACCIA TROIA", or with even more effect "LA MADONNACCIA TROIA".
"OH MY GOD I'VE BEEN ASKING ADSL FOR 4 YEARS BUT I STILL HAVE NOT IT, MADONNA TROIA"

“vestito da troia” it’s “dressed as a slut”, it is used by the hottest girls. all boys love girls “vestite da troie” (the plural one). in fact, if you are dressed as a slut you can tow all. this expression can also use for insul someone, because the slut are usally on the road.
“oh! look Renee, she’s the hottest girl I’ve ever seen! tonight is vestita da troia”
“omg this girl is vestita da toria, she will definitely be going to beat!”
“I love her vestito da troia”
