Florence is home to some of the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most talented bespoke tailors. Beth Druce discovers the secrets of their craft

he fast pace of high-fashion menswear sees designers regularly tapping into conceptual, avant-garde ideas. In the historic city of Florence, however, the business of making clothing is a much slower, more traditional affair, where suits are made to order and many months can pass before they are ready to wear. Away from the intense noise of fashion’s front line, these are the creations of artisans whose work is a reassuring nod to the Florentine craft industry of yesteryear. One of the last remaining Florentine tailoring houses in the city, Liverano & Liverano is also among the most widely known. Founder Luigi Liverano, originally from Puglia, honed his skills at Commesatti before opening his

own studio in the city in the early 1950s, where he was quickly joined by his brother Antonio. Over 65 years later, Antonio Liverano can still be found working away at his cutting table in the atelier which is now situated on the Via dei Fossi. To understand Liverano & Liverano’s appeal, one must first appreciate the distinctive nature of the Florentine tailoring style. ‘Florence tailoring is about a particular cut: a single slanted dart running from the armhole to the pocket in a harmonious relationship between collar and lapel,’ comments Renzo Ruggi, the bespoke tailoring advisor for the house. A jacket will also boast ‘a well-distributed fullness, a slightly extended unpadded shoulder and an overall cleanliness of line,’ he continues.

LIVERANO & LIVERANO OFFERS A BOLD AND EXUBERANT STYLE OF SUIT THAT IS REFLECTIVE OF THE CITY’S QUIRKY CHARM AND ARTISTIC FERVOUR

In Florence, the business of making clothing is a slow, traditional affair The result is a bold, exuberant style of suit that is reflective of the city’s quirky charm and artistic fervour. Liverano & Liverano presents an ‘interpretation of the classic Florentine cut derived from Signor Liverano’s own vision of style,’ Ruggi explains. ‘We have a peculiar sensitivity for colour and a strong awareness of how to match textures and shades.’ Consequently, a bright mauve or zingy blue suit jacket sighted on the streets of Florence is most likely to be the work of Liverano & Liverano. Blessed with an almost equally long history, Sartoria Piero Cisternino is situated on Via del Purgatorio, from where brothers Piero and Franco Cisternino continue their 50-year business.

Florence at the age of 20 to learn more about the art of bespoke tailoring, having worked first in his native Osaka. ‘Since I was a teenager I have thought how special the suit was. In comparison to other clothes it seemed so difficult to master,’ explains the designer, who worked at tailor Sartoria Seminara as well as with the Prato-based tailor Francesco Guida. Characterised by a wide lapel, with a straight line down to the button, there is a softness to a Corcos suit, a ‘lightness and familiarity’, which Miyahira says is what drew him creatively to the tailors of Florence, with their ‘very soft canvas and a cut that gives a natural impression’. Miyahira’s suits are in the Florentine style, albeit with an oh-so-slight modern

They design bespoke suits in both Florentine and Neapolitan styles – the brothers are originally from southern Italy – but Piero’s knowledge and experience reaches far beyond the tailoring field. He was heavily invested in the promotion of culture and artisan production in Florence, and was a key architect in developing relations between Florence’s fashion-craft industry and the city’s tailoring trade. Today, Cisternino’s loyal clientele will happily endure fittings that take four or five days. While tailoring houses run by local families are in the majority in Florence, there are also designers who have moved to Italy from elsewhere. One example is Japanese-born Kotaro Miyahira of Sartoria Corcos, who arrived in

slant that comes from his early training in Asia. While these tailoring houses have always enjoyed business from a specific demographic of client, both Liverano & Liverano and Corcos have noted a wider demand for a tailor-made suit in recent years. Miyahira sees the Florentine style of tailoring as ‘the opposite to the urbanised power suit’, while for Ruggi the growing interest in bespoke is down to people looking for ‘well-made garments after decades of fashion brand dictatorship’. Ruggi is also careful to point out the creative influence of the tailor when it comes to customer preferences, adding that, ‘Sometimes this process can last a long time, but usually Signor

The skill and love that goes into creating something unique is precious Liverano’s taste has the final say.’ Ultimately, however, the growing appeal of Florentine made-to-measure garments points to a shift in fashion’s hierarchy. As the industry becomes more of a ‘see now, buy now’ marketplace, the love and skill that goes into creating something unique that takes many months to complete seems all the more precious, and all the more desirable

oman designers need only step outside their doors to find inspiration. In a city that boasts stunning architecture, captivating historical sites and some of the most notable luxury brands in the world, it’s understandable the latter would be inspired by the former.

First the surfaces were mapped, and then cleaned using gentle sprays of mist to remove decades-worth of dirt and grime, before cavities and cracks were repointed and loose stucco replaced with more authentic materials. The restoration covered 13,300 square metres of surface and the installation of new gates. The Colosseumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s appearance is vastly improved, with formerly blackened areas now gleaming white and enticing passers-by to enter.

The restoration will also mean that the amphitheatre can in future be used for what Franceschini refers to as ‘cultural events of the highest level.’ The Trevi Fountain, a spectacular water feature surrounded by statues of mythical figures and noble steeds rising from the depths, has been restored by Fendi at a cost of more than €2m, with the brand calling the project ‘a labour of love’.

Fendi has a deep bond with Rome, the city our house was founded in 90 years ago and that has always inspired us. The funding of these restoration projects was very important not just as an act of philanthropy but as a way to thank the Eternal City for all that we have been given in these years.’ Bulgari has approached its renovation of the Spanish Steps in a similar spirit of gratitude. ‘Rome has always been the number one source of inspiration for Bulgari so it is right to give back to Rome what Rome has given Bulgari,’ said chief Above (from top): the entrance to the Fendi boutique in Rome; the Spanish Steps, whose recent renovation was funded by Bulgari

The jewellery brand has also invested in an ongoing project to restore the mosaics in the Baths of Caracalla.

Blending medieval, baroque and art deco and nouveau styles, the architect’s use of imagery has influenced Delettrez’s work. ‘It’s all hidden symbolism, but with an ironic touch. It’s like mixed fairytales, coming up and creating a whole different parallel universe; so there is gothic, art deco, liberty, the medieval,’ says Delettrez. ‘It’s incredible.’ From fairytale fountains to iconic steps and the most impressive historical site in the city, Rome continues to provide inspiration to a new generation of designers – who, in turn, do not hesitate to show their appreciation and gratitude to the Eternal City globalblue.com

TABLE TALK

Italy is famous around the world for its fabulous food. Simplicity is key to its cuisine and, though it varies from region to region, the nation’s culinary identity is always focused on excellent ingredients. Most dishes feature only a few, with an emphasis on quality over quantity. Pizza and pasta are, of course, abundant. But meat, fish and vegetable dishes are presented just as lovingly, and nothing is an afterthought: cheese, bread, wine and antipasti are all stars in their own right. At home, meal times are a big family event, with several courses served over a number of hours. When it comes to eating out, Italians are discerning diners, meaning that even the humblest of local establishments is likely to offer great service and excellent cuisine. From the traditional to the contemporary, Italy’s restaurants offer some of the most comforting, delicious and inventive dishes available anywhere – all paired with great service and fantastic wines. globalblue.com

Much-loved Italian footwear brand Casadei launches its first foray into jewellery this season, in partnership with Ilenia Corti. Capturing the spirit of the rainforest and interpreting it in a manner that evokes 1980s couture, the collection offers rings, earrings, necklaces and a custom-made cuff. Adorned with a plethora of flora and fauna, including birds of paradise, serpents and colourful tree frogs, this cuff is a spectacular, showstopping piece that would make a perfect addition to a summer party look.

FABIANA FILIPPI Fabiana Filippi’s spring/ summer 2017 collection is imbued with lightness. Delicate cottons and silks are enhanced by tactile details, including embroidery and bouclé effects. Oversized items add volume and the overall effect is one of relaxed refinement. One of the essential purchases for the new season is this long suede vest, which features a rope belt that can be casually tied at one side and deep splits at the bottom of the garment, giving it added movement.

美文翻译 54: A Cut Above 技高一筹佛罗伦萨孕育了全世界最有才华的定制裁缝师。Beth Druce带您探寻精湛定制工艺背后的秘密在快节奏的高级男装界，越来越多的设计师对前卫新潮的设计趋之若鹜。然而在历史悠久的佛罗伦萨，制衣行业仍然迈着不紧不慢的步调，保留着源远流长的定制传统。这里的西装都是量身定制，从预订到完工需要数月之久。远离时尚前沿的喧嚣，这些工匠的作品是对佛罗伦萨昔日手工行业的完美传承。 globalblue.com

Liverano & Liverano是这座城市所剩无几的纯正佛罗伦萨风格裁缝铺。出生于普利亚（Puglia）的创始人 Luigi LiveranoCommesatti在练就精湛技艺之后，于上个世纪五十年代初在佛罗伦萨开设了自己的工作室；不久，他的兄弟Antonio也加入了他的行列。65年后的今天，人们仍然能够在其位于 Via dei Fossi街的工作室中，看到 Antonio Liveran在剪裁桌旁辛勤忙碌的身影。欲体会Liverano & Liverano 的动人之处，必须先学会欣赏佛罗伦萨式剪裁的独特魅力。“佛罗伦萨风格剪裁设计的特别之处是：从袖孔到口袋有一处倾斜的褶襞，与衣领和翻领和谐搭配。” 裁缝铺的定制剪裁咨询师Renzo Ruggi介绍道。西装外套则拥有 “恰到好处的饱满匀称感、稍长的无垫肩设计和简洁利落的整体线条。”大胆前卫、灵动活泼的西装便应运而生，折射出这座城市不同寻常的魅力和它对艺术的热情。“通过 Liverano & Liverano 的作品可以了解 Liverano先生如何以自己的视角诠释经典的佛罗伦萨式剪裁， ”Ruggi解释道， “我们对色彩极其敏感，尤其懂得如何搭配纹理和色调。”在佛罗伦萨的街头，您看到的淡紫色或亮蓝色的西装外套很有可能就出自 Liverano & Liverano之手。同样拥有着悠久历史的 Sartoria Piero Cisternino坐落于 Via del Purgatorio街，由Piero和 Franco Cisternino兄弟悉心经营了五十载。兄弟两人来自意大利

127

南部，设计佛罗伦萨和那不勒斯风格的定制西装。即使整个试穿过程需要四、五天，Cisternino 的忠实顾客仍欣然接受，毫无怨言。Piero的过人学识和丰富经验更是延伸到剪裁界之外，他曾斥巨资帮助推广佛罗伦萨文化和手工艺，在促进佛罗伦萨时尚手工艺界和剪裁界的关联中，扮演了举足轻重的角色。在佛罗伦萨，虽然大多数裁缝铺都是由当地家族经营的，但仍有不少的设计师来自世界各地。Sartoria Corcos的日本设计师 Kotaro Miyahira便是其中的一员，他在出生地大阪工作了一段时间后，于20岁时定居佛罗伦萨，钻研定制剪裁的艺术。“我十几岁时便觉得这种款式的西装很特别，和其他服装相比更难掌控，更具挑战，也很有意思。”这位设计师如是说道，他曾在 Sartoria Seminara 工作，与来自普拉托（Prato）的裁缝 Francesco Guida搭档。 Corcos西装的特色是宽大的翻领笔直地延伸至纽扣，显得更加自然柔和。Miyahira表示， “轻盈而不拘小节 ”正是佛罗伦萨剪裁吸引他的地方，Miyahira的西装以佛罗伦萨风格为主，早年在亚洲的培训经历也为他的设计增添一丝东方神韵。虽然这些裁缝铺主要承接特定顾客群体，但 Liverano & Liverano和 Corcos都注意到，近年来定制西装的需求越来越大。Miyahira认为佛罗伦萨风格的剪裁“与都市化的西装有着天壤之别 ”；而在 Ruggi看来，定制西装的升温归根结底是因为人们

希望“推翻时尚成衣品牌数十年的统治，寻求真正做工精良的着装 ” 。 Ruggi还小心翼翼地指出裁缝师的创作对客人喜好的影响， “ 整个定制过程可能持续很长时间，通常情况下，Liverano先生的意见有着主导影响力。” 总而言之，佛罗伦萨私人订制服装的异军突起，标志着时尚阶层的转变。随着整个行业向着 “ 即看即买”的交易模式靠拢，花上数个月打造非凡之作的心意和技艺反而愈发弥足珍贵，引人无限向往。 62: To Rome, With Love 罗马假日从斗兽场到特莱维喷泉再到西班牙阶梯，罗马的地标名胜是当地设计师丰富的灵感源泉。他们为罗马重建慷慨解囊，回报这座创意之城。Sally McIlhone为您娓娓道来无需走远，居住于罗马的设计师们在家门口便能寻得灵感。这座城市有着令人惊叹的建筑和引人注目的历史遗迹，更有众多世界上最著名的奢侈品牌，罗马的设计师们从中不断汲取灵感。的确，许多品牌对这座“不朽之城”中历史悠久的胜景迷恋至深，纷纷以独特的形式加以赞颂：从投资都市整修项目，到以这些场所为背景举办时装秀，不一而足。皮具品牌Tod’s与罗马负责建筑遗产的权威机构合作，将市内的地标性历史建筑——圆形角斗场（Colosseum amphitheatre）加以修复。据称，品牌总裁和首席执行官 Diego Della Valle已为该项目贡献了

2500万欧元。第一期工程历时五年，于 2016年7月完工。先以柔和喷雾清洗，除去几十年来的灰尘与污垢，尔后便是罅隙与裂缝的重新勾嵌，以更接近原始的材料来取代松弛的灰泥。表面的13,300平方米都将被修复，还会装上全新的大门。角斗场的外观现已大为改善，从前黑化的区域如今闪耀着白光，吸引路人走进去参观。下一阶段的翻修将处理地下部分，角斗士与动物们曾在此静候命运。施工之后，游客将能从角斗场墙外进入这些区域参观。 “运动场完工之后，这里会变得更加漂亮。”意大利文化部部长Dario Franceschini告诉《卫报》说。据他表示，本次修复后，角斗场将能举办“最高级别的文化盛事”。壮观水景特莱维喷泉（Trevi Fountain）的中央是栩栩如生的神话人物雕像，两匹引人注目的骏马引蹄而立。芬迪（Fendi）斥资逾200万欧元将其修复，并将该项目称为“爱的劳作”。竣工成果于2015年12月3日揭幕，芬迪又于2016年7月在该喷泉举办了90 周年纪念服装秀。透明的T台使模特能够划过水面行走，契合了这场以传说和精灵为主题的大秀。说起这项修复工程，芬迪首席执行官Pietro Beccari如此评价： “芬迪

globalblue.com

就是罗马，罗马就是芬迪。芬迪与罗马有着极深的渊源，90年前我们正是在这座城市创立了公司，一直以来也正是罗马启发着我们。资助这些修复项目极为重要，它不仅是慈善之举，也是向‘不朽之城’致谢的一种方式，感谢这些年来罗马给予我们的一切。” 宝格丽（Bulgari）也怀着相似的感恩之心参与了西班牙阶梯（Spanish Steps）的翻修。 “罗马一直是宝格丽的首要灵感来源，所以我们理应将罗马给予宝格丽的财富回馈给这座城市。”首席执行官Jean-Christophe Babin表示。该公司注资150万欧元，确保西班牙阶梯得到妥善清洗和修复，细节问题也能得到适当的关注。该珠宝品牌还投资了一个持续性项目：修复罗马浴室（the Baths of Caracalla）内的镶嵌图案。去年九月，就在宝格丽配饰发布会之前，新翻修的西班牙阶梯重新对外开放。如今，每一位《罗马假日》（Roman Holiday）影迷都能以奥黛丽·赫本之姿踱步西班牙阶梯，然后走进宝格丽精品店，以回馈品牌对罗马的修复。珠宝设计师Delfina Delettrez的灵感，则来自于一个不那么高调的纪念碑，即建筑师Gino Coppedè于1920 年代建于Coppedè区的喷泉。这位建筑师擅长糅合中世纪、巴洛克、装饰艺术和新艺术运动等多种风格，他对意象的运用深深地影响了Delettrez的设计。 “隐含着象征主义，却带有一种讽刺意味。它就像混杂在一起的童话，一涌而上创造出一个完全不同的平行宇宙。所以这里汇聚了哥特、装饰艺术、自由和中世纪风格，令人难以置信。”Delettrez说道。从童话喷泉到标志性阶梯，再到城中最令人难忘的历史遗迹，罗马源源不断地为新一代的设计师提供灵感。反过来，设计师们也毫不犹豫慷慨解囊,向这座不朽之城表达礼赞与感恩。

正式对公众开放。 “翻修工作并未影响外部构造，原先的墙面被保留了下来。”Zaccardi娓娓道来。 “建筑内部具有光亮、通风、透明的特点；家具的简约之美和建材的卓越品质充分融入了独一无二的极简主义风格之中。” 明晰的线条与优雅的造型，确保架上产品光彩照人——不论您是身处传统男装所在的七楼，还是在意大利美食品牌“Eataly”食品集市专属的地下楼层——这里贮藏着优等食材与奢享豪礼。正如Zaccardi 所说， “我选择Eataly是因为它代表着最上乘的食物，那也是我们选择 RossoPomodoro、Hamburgheria 和 La Piadina dei Fratelli Maioli的原因。” 不论是一份可口的汉堡、绝佳的披萨意面，还是一片传统的意大利扁面饼，这些咖啡馆和餐厅能总是能以美味令所有人心生愉悦。说起时尚，Brian & Barry囊括了从秀场最新单品到传统大牌经典之作。在五六两层的女装部，Iconic

РУССКИЙ ПЕРЕВОД 54: A Cut Above

На шаг впереди Бет Дрюс раскрывает секреты ремесла флорентийских портных Стремительный ритм высокой моды постоянно провоцирует дизайнеров на авангардные идеи. Однако в старинной Флоренции портновское дело придерживается более размеренного ритма: костюмы шьются по индивидуальной мерке, и от заказа до готовности может пройти несколько месяцев. Здесь, вдали от модной суеты, каждый костюм – это произведение мастера, который продолжает давнюю флорентийскую ремесленную традицию. Liverano & Liverano – одно из последних сохранившихся во Флоренции ателье, с которым мало кто может сравниться по известности. Его основатель Луиджи Ливерано, родом из Апулии, оттачивал навыки в ателье портного Коммесатти, а в начале 1950-х открыл собственную студию. Вскоре к нему присоединился брат Антонио Ливерано, которого и сейчас, спустя более 65 лет, можно увидеть за раскройным столом в том самом ателье, расположенном теперь на Via dei Fossi. Чтобы понять природу притягательности

Liverano & Liverano, нужно познакомиться с особенностями флорентийского стиля. «Флорентийский костюм отличается особенностью кроя: единственная косая вытачка проходит от проймы рукава до кармана в гармонии с линией воротничка и лацкана», – комментирует Ренцо Руджи, советник по костюму этого ателье. Кроме того, по его словам, пиджак обладает «тщательно распределенными припусками, слегка надставленными плечами без подкладок и в целом чистыми линиями». В

костюмы во флорентийском и неаполитанском стилях. При этом знания и опыт Пьеро не ограничивается только портновским делом: он активно вкладывался в продвижение культуры и ремесел во Флоренции и сыграл ключевую роль в развитии отношений между флорентийской индустрией модных ремесел и швейным производством. А сейчас лояльные клиенты Чистернино с удовольствием приходят на примерки, которые могут продолжаться четыре или пять дней. Большинство флорентийских ателье открыли местные семейные кланы. Однако некоторые дизайнеры специально приехали в этот город из других стран. В частности, Котаро Мияхира родился в Японии и начинал свой путь в родной Осаке, а в возрасте 20 лет приехал во Флоренцию, чтобы узнать

результате получается дерзкий и смелый костюм, отражающий своеобразное очарование и артистичную страсть Флоренции. По выражению Руджи, Liverano & Liverano занимается «интерпретацией классического флорентийского кроя, каким его видит синьор Ливерано»: «У нас развита особая чувствительность к цвету и накоплены знания о сочетаниях текстур и оттенков». Так что если на улицах Флоренции вы увидите костюмный пиджак розовато-лилового или насыщенного синего оттенка, то это скорее всего работа Liverano & Liverano. На улице Via del Purgatorio находится ателье Sartoria Piero Cisternino с почти такой же долгой историей: на протяжении 50 лет здесь развивают свое дело братья Пьеро и Франко Чистернино. Родом с юга Италии, они шьют

больше об искусстве пошива костюмов на заказ. «С подросткового возраста меня не покидает ощущение того, насколько особенным и важным является костюм. На фоне других предметов одежды он казался мне очень сложным для воплощения», – объясняет дизайнер. В Италии он работал в ателье Sartoria Seminara, а также с портным Франческо Гуида в Прато, после чего открыл собственную студию Sartoria Corcos. Для костюмов Corcos характерны широкие лацканы с прямой линией до пуговицы, которые придают силуэту общую мягкость. Мияхира называет эту «легкость и открытость» самым притягательным, что он обнаружил в работах флорентийских портных, достигающих этого эффекта за счет «очень мягких тканей и особенного кроя, дающего естественные ощущения». Костюмы Мияхира выполнены во флорентийском стиле, но с легким современным акцентом, заимствованным из его прежней работы в Азии. Эти ателье всегда работали со специфическими клиентами. Но в последние годы и Liverano & Liverano, и Corcos отмечают расширение спроса на заказные костюмы. Мияхира относит это на счет флорентийского стиля как «полной противоположности строгим костюмам». А по мнению Руджи,

рост интереса к ручной работе связан с появлением людей, которым нужны «искусные вещи после десятилетий диктатуры модных брендов». Он также не забывает и о влиянии портного на предпочтения клиентов: «Иногда творческий процесс занимает очень много времени, но последнее слово обычно за вкусом синьора Ливерано». В конечном счете, растущий интерес к флорентийским костюмам, сшитым по мерке, говорит и о качественных изменениях в модной иерархии. Индустрия все больше играет по рыночным правилам и двигается в сторону концепции «пришел, увидел, купил». А страсть к своему делу и ремесленный опыт порождают нечто неповторимое, требующее многие месяцы для воплощения. И в наши дни это кажется еще более ценным, и оттого – более желанным.

62: To Rome, With Love

С любовью к Риму От Колизея до фонтана Треви и Испанской лестницы – легендарные достопримечательности итальянской столицы не перестают вдохновлять местных дизайнеров, которые выражают благодарность щедрыми инвестициями в реставрационные проекты, – рассказывает Салли МакИлхоун

Для того, чтобы найти вдохновение, римским дизайнерам требуется всего лишь переступить порог своего

дома. В городе с величественной архитектурой и уникальными достопримечательностями модным брендам не составит труда найти источник для вдохновения. Потрясенные красотами Вечного города, некоторые из них делают вклад в реставрацию памятников, другие же устраивают на их фоне грандиозные шоу-показы. Кожгалантерейный бренд Tod’s принял участие в совместном с городской администрацией проекте по восстановлению одного из самых величественных памятников города – Колизея. Генеральный директор Diego Della Valle также пожертвовал

25 миллионов евро на этот проект, первый этап которого занял 5 лет и завершился в июле 2016 года. Сперва был составлен подробный чертеж всех поверхностей, после чего началась их очистка от многолетней грязи и пыли с помощью специального спрея, и в самом конце были заделаны трещины и обновлена штукатурка. Всего было отреставрировано 13 300 м2 поверхностей, а также заменены ворота. Внешний вид сооружения заметно преобразился, и теперь на месте черных дыр сверкающая облицовка, привлекающая взгляды прохожих. Следующий этап реставрации затронет подземелья, где когда-то гладиаторы и дикие звери ожидали своей участи. Главная задача – будет сделать так, чтобы посетители могли попасть в эти помещения снаружи стен амфитеатра. «Когда реставрация закончится, Колизей будет еще прекраснее», – заявил министр культуры Италии, Дарио Франческини, в интервью газете Guardian. По словам Франческини, реставрация также позволит проводить в стенах амфитеатра «культурные мероприятия высшего уровня». Реконструкция фонтана Треви, окруженного статуями мифических существ и лошадей, была проведена на средства компании Fendi, которая потратила на это более

2 млн евро, назвав проект «трудом любви». Фонтан вновь открылся для публики 3 ноября 2015 года, а в июле 2016 здесь прошел юбилейный шоу-показ, приуроченный к 90-летию основания бренда. Благодаря прозрачному подиуму модели грациозно скользили по поверхности воды, усиливая эффект «сказочной» тематики показа. Пьетро Беккари, генеральный директор Fendi, делится о своем вкладе в реконструкцию города: «Fendi – это Рим, а Рим – это Fendi. Fendi имеет тесную связь с Римом: именно здесь 90 лет назад был основан наш модный дом, и это не может нас не вдохновлять. Участие в реставрационных проектах – не просто акт благотворительности, это еще и способ выразить благодарность Вечному городу за все, чем мы ему обязаны». У марки Bulgari похожий подход к реставрации Испанской лестницы. «Рим всегда был главным источником вдохновения для Bulgari, поэтому справедливо будет отблагодарить его за все, что он дал нам», – говорит президент марки, Жан-Кристоф Бабин. Всего компания выделила на реставрацию 1.5 млн евро, что позволило привести памятник в идеальное состояние. Кроме того ювелирный бренд принял участие в проекте по восстановлению мозаики в Термах Каракаллы.

Обновленная лестница была открыта в сентябре прошлого года перед презентацией коллекции аксессуаров Bulgari. Теперь каждый поклонник фильма Римские каникулы сможет спустится по Испанским ступеням в стиле Одри Хепберн, а затем зайти в бутик Bulgari и выразить бренду благодарность за его вклад в поддержку города. Источником вдохновения для ювелира Дельфины Делеттре служит менее известный памятник – фонтан лягушек в квартале Коппеде, построенный в 1920 году архитектором Джино Коппеде. Фонтан сочетает в себе сразу несколько стилей, включая средневековье, барокко, ар-деко и модернизм, а созданные мастером образы оказали заметное влияние на творчество Делеттре. «Здесь скрыт уникальный символизм, дополненный оттенком иронии. Это словно окно в параллельную вселенную, где существует сказочный мир – здесь видна и готика, и ар-деко, и либерти, и средневековье, – говорит Делеттре. – Это просто невероятно». От сказочных фонтанов до легендарных лестниц и архитектурных памятников, Рим продолжает вдохновлять новые поколения дизайнеров, которые, в свою очередь, не скупятся выражать свою признательность Вечному городу.

ресторанов. Центр насчитывает 12 этажей удовольствий и его стоит посетить каждому, кто побывает в Милане. «Комплекс Brian & Barry Building расположен в нескольких шагах от площади Сан-Бабила в самом центре Милана, – рассказывает его директор Роберто Заккарди. – Отсюда открывается впечатляющий вид на город и Миланский собор». Здание было построено архитектором Джованни Музио и датируется 1950 годом. Центр Brian & Barry Building открылся в марте 2014. «Реконструкция не затронула фасад, который сохранил свой оригинальный облик, – поясняет Заккарди. – Свет, легкость и прозрачность

– основные характеристики интерьера, где простота мебели и качество материалов выражены в уникальной концепции минималистской утонченности». Чистые линии и стильные витрины обеспечивают представленным товарам непревзойденный вид. Это относится и к седьмому этажу с отделами традиционной мужской одежды, и к самому нижнему – с супермаркетом итальянских деликатесов Eataly, где можно найти лучшие продукты и подарки. На этот счет Заккарди говорит следующее: «Мы выбрали Eataly, RossoPomodoro, Hamburgheria и La Piadina dei Fratelli Maioli, поскольку они предлагают великолепную еду». В этих кафе найдется практически все и на любой вкус: от аппетитных гамбургеров и превосходной пиццы до спагетти и традиционных итальянских лепешек. Когда дело касается моды, то здесь комплексу Brian & Barry Building сложно найти равных. Представленный ассортимент варьируется от последних подиумных коллекций до классических всемирно известных брендов. Пятый и шестой этажи посвящены женской одежде и разбиты на два отдела: Iconic Woman с классическими коллекциями и Contemporary Woman с современными коллекциями одежды. На восьмом этаже

представлена мужская одежда, вдохновленная уличным стилем, переходящим в современный спортивный стиль. Если вас интересуют часы или ювелирные украшения, тогда дольше всего вы задержитесь на втором этаже, где представлены такие бренды, как Chanel, Montblanc и Bell & Ross. В галерее на первом этаже посетители могут познакомиться с историей компании Brian & Barry, а также взглянуть на витрины, посвященные верхним этажам здания. Торговый комплекс постоянно развивается и не перестает радовать как новых посетителей, так и постоянных клиентов. «Все здесь находится в процессе эволюции, – говорит Заккарди. – Мы хотим подарить нашим посетителям незабываемый опыт, а для этого мы проводим многочисленные мероприятия, акции и конечно представляем все новые и новые бренды». При планировке интерьера Brian & Barry Building в расчет принималось в первую очередь удобство для посетителей, каждый из которых приходит сюда с определенной целью: кому-то нужно приобрести новую косметику, в то время как другие приходят, чтобы исследовать каждый этаж, проводя здесь целый день. Чтобы угодить обеим группам, в торговом центре предусмотрены скоростные лифты и медленные эскалаторы. globalblue.com

Дополнительные удобства включают расширенный график работы комплекса, чьи двери открыты с 8 утра до 8 вечера, а также постоянно растущий ассортимент самых известных мировых брендов, собранных под одной крышей. «Посетители Brian & Barry Building приходят к нам, рассчитывая на превосходную одежду, ювелирные украшения и часы. Они ценят товары с отличительным знаком «Сделано в Италии», а также продукцию лучших международных брендов», – говорит Заккарди. Торговый центр Brian & Barry Building также предлагает своим клиентам возможность изысканной трапезы в местном ресторане Asola, работающим под началом шеф-повара Маттео Торретта. В баре Terrazza 12 на последнем этаже комплекса посетителям предложат выбор из 12 фирменных коктейлей наряду с классическими напитками – и все это в оригинальном интерьере в стиле 1950-х. Здесь можно прекрасно отдохнуть после утомительного шоппинга. Напоследок хотим привести слова директора комплекса: «Brian & Barry Building стремится стать центром всего, что происходит в Милане. Мы уже проводили ряд выставок картин и фотографий, и Terrazza 12 идеально подходит для этих целей. Мы любим Милан и хотим перенести город и его удивительную культуру в наш торговый комплекс».

フィレンツェには世界有数のビスポークテイラーがいくつかある。べス・ドゥルースがその技の秘密を探った。移り変わりの速いハイファッション・メンズウェアの世界では、デザイナーたちが常にコンセプチュアルでアヴァンギャルドなアイデアを取り入れてきたが、歴史あるフィレンツェの服作りはじっくり時間をかけて進める伝統工芸。スーツはオーダーメードで、着れるようになるまでに数か月かかることもある。最先端ファッションの目まぐるしさをよそに、古くからのフィレンツェの工芸産業を大切にした職人の技が生み出すものなのだ。この都市に今も残る仕立て屋の一つ、リヴェラーノ＆リヴェラーノは広く知られるフィレンツェ流テイラーだ。プーリア州出身の創業者ルイジ・リヴェラーノがコメサッティで修行した後、1950年代初頭にフィレンツェで工房を開設し、まもなく弟のアントニオが加わった。それから65年以上経っ globalblue.com

た今も、フォッシ通りにあるアトリエの裁断テーブルで仕事するアントニオ・リヴェラーノの姿が見られる。リヴェラーノ＆リヴェラーノの魅力を理解するには、まずフィレンツェ流の仕立てスタイルに特有の性質をわかっていなければならない。「フィレンツェ流仕立ての特徴は独特のカットにあります。袖ぐりからポケットに向けて一本の斜めダーツを入れ、襟とラペル（下襟）の調和をとります」と、同社ビスポークテイラーリングアドバイザーのレンツォ・ルッジはいう。ジャケットは、「バランスよくかけたキセや、パッドを入れない心もち広めの肩、全体としてスッキリしたライン」も自慢だ。そうして仕上がったスーツは大胆かつ華麗なスタイルで、フィレンツェの古風な魅力と芸術に対する熱情を反映している。リヴェラーノ＆リヴェラーノが提供するのは「シニョール・リヴェラーノのスタイル観から生まれた古典的なフィレンツェ流カットを解釈したデザイン」だという。「当社には独特の色彩

感覚があり、素材の風合いと色合いをいかにマッチさせるかを強く意識しています。」そのため、フィレンツェの街で見られる明るいモーブや鮮やかな青のスーツジャケットは、たいがいリヴェラーノ＆リヴェラーノの作だ。プルガトーリオ通りにあるサルトリア・ピエロ・チステルニーノも、リヴェラーノ＆リヴェラーノにほぼ匹敵する長い歴史を誇り、ピエロとフランコのチステルニーノ兄弟が50年続くビジネスを営んでいる。もともと南イタリア出身の彼らは、フィレンツェスタイルとナポリスタイルの両方の誂えスーツをデザインするが、ピエロの知識と経験は仕立てに限らず実に幅広い。フィレンツェの文化と職人によるモノづくりの振興を重要視する彼は、この都市のファッション工芸業界と仕立て業界の関係構築でも主要な役割を果たした。今や、チステルニーノの愛好家は４～５日かかる試着・調整も厭わない。フィレンツェの仕立て屋は地元住民が家族で経営するものが大半だが、他国からイタリアへ移ってきたデザイナーもいる。その一例が、サルトリア・コルコスの日本人デザイナー宮平康太郎だ。生まれ故郷の大阪で働いた後、ビスポークテイラーリングについてさらに学ぶために、20歳でフィレンツェ入りした。「ティーンエージャーの頃から、スーツは特別だと思っていました。他の服に比べて、マスターするのがとても難しそうだったので」という宮平は、サルトリア・セミナーラやプラートに本拠を置くフランチェスコ・グイダで働いた経験を持つ。広いラペルと裾までまっすぐ降りたラインが特徴のコルコスのスーツには柔らかさがある。宮平いわく、クリエイターとしてフィレンツェのテイラーに魅かれたのは、「キャンバス（芯地）がとてもソフトで、カットが自然な印象を与えるフィレンツェスタイルに、軽さ

と親しみやすさがあったから」。そんな宮平のスーツは、アジアでの修業を反映した極くさりげないモダンさを加えたフィレンツェスタイルだ。リヴェラーノ＆リヴェラーノもコルコスも特定の顧客層をお得意様としてきたが、近年はテイラーメードのスーツに対する需要が拡大しているという。宮平はフィレンツェスタイルのテイラーリングを「都会的なパワースーツの対極」と考えている。一方、ルッジは、誂えスーツに対する関心の高まりは「ファッションブランド全盛の時代が数十年続いた後に、消費者が仕立てのいい服を求めるようになっている」からだと見ている。ルッジは、顧客の好みに関してはテイラー個人の創造的影響力もあるという指摘も忘れない。「誂えのプロセスは長時間かかることもありますが、結局はシニョール・リヴェラーノのテイストがものをいいますね。」とはいえ、フィレンツェ流メイド・トゥ・メジャー服の人気の高まりが示すのは、究極的にはファッションヒエラルキーの変化。業界が「今見て今買う」類の市場になるにつれ、完成までに数か月を要する一点物を創り出すのに注ぎ込まれる愛情と技が一層貴重に、一層魅力的になっているのだ。

コロッセオ、トレビの泉、スペイン階段などローマを象徴する名所は地元デザイナーにとって豊かなインスピレーションの源だ。そうして創造性を刺激してもらったデザイナーたちが、そのお返しとして修復に気前よく協力している。サリー・マキルホーンがレポートする。ローマのデザイナーは一歩外に出さえすればインスピレーションの源はいくらでもある。見事な建築物や魅力的な史跡を誇るこの都市には世界有数の高級ブランドがいくつかあり、後者が前者の影響を受けていても不思議はない。実際、一部のデザイナーレーベルは『永遠の都』を象徴する不朽の建造物に魅せられ、そうした特別の思い入れが高じて、改修費用支援を行ったりファッションショーの舞台にする形で賛美の念を表している。革製品ブランドのトッズは市の建築遺産担当部門と共同で、ローマ随一の歴史的建造物コロッセオ円形闘技場を修復した。社長兼CEOのディエゴ・デッラ・ヴァッレはこのプロジェクトに2500万ユーロを注ぎ込んだといわれ、5年かけた第1期工事が2016 年7月に完成した。まず表面のマッピングを行い、柔らかな霧状スプレーで何十年分もの埃や汚れを取り除いてから、穴やひび割れを補修し、剥がれかけた化粧漆喰は伝統的な材料を使ってやり直す作業が行われた。この修復は表面積1万3300平方メートルにおよび、新たなゲートも設置された。コロッセオの外観は大いに改善され、それまで黒ずんでいた部分が今は白く光って通行人を中へと誘っている。次期工事は、剣闘士や猛獣が自らの運命を決する時を待った地下部 globalblue.com

分が対象となる。来場者がコロッセオの壁の外側から地下部分に入れるようにするのが狙いだ。「アリーナが完成すれば、さらに美しい所になりますよ」と、ダリオ・フランチェスキーニ文化相はガーディアン紙に語っている。こうした修復工事によって、この円形闘技場は将来「最高レベルの文化イベント（フランチェスキーニ談）」にも使用できるようになる。深みから現れる神話上の人物や気高き軍馬の像が取り巻く見事な噴水、トレビの泉はフェンディが200万ユーロ超を投じて「愛着心から生まれた奉仕」プロジェクトとして修復した。完成した噴水は2015年11月3日に除幕されたが、フェンディはさらに2016 年7月にここで創立90周年のクチュー

ルショーを開催して花を添えた。透明のキャットウォーク上を歩くモデルたちが水面を滑るように見え、伝説やおとぎ話をテーマとしたショーにふさわしい演出となった。フェンディのCEOピエトロ・ベッカーリはこの修復について、次のように語った。「フェンディといえばローマ、ローマといえばフェンディ。フェンディは、90年前の創業の地であり、以来常にインスピレーションを与えてくれたローマと深い絆で結ばれています。修復プロジェクトの費用支援は、慈善事業としてだけでなく、これまでフェンディを育ててくれた永遠の都への恩返しとしてもとても重要だったのです。」ブルガリも同様の感謝の気持ちでスペイン階段の修復に臨んだ。「ローマはいつもブルガリの一番のインスピレーション源。ですから、ローマがブルガリに与えてくれたものをお返しするのは当然のことです」と、チーフエグゼクティブのジャン・クリストフ・ババンは話している。実際に150万ユーロを支援して、スペイン階段の清掃・修理がこの場所にふさわしい細心の注意を払いながら行われるようにしている。ブルガリはさらに、カラカラ浴場のモザイクを修復する継続的プロジェクトにも出資している。修復が終わったスペイン階段は、ブルガリのアクセサリー発表を控えた昨年9月に改めて公開された。映画「ローマの休日」のファンは今、スペイン階段をオードリー・ヘップバーンよろしくそぞろ歩いてからブルガリのブティックに立ち寄り、このジュエラーがローマのためにしてくれたことに報いることができる。ジュエリーデザイナーのデルフィナ・デレトレズがインスピレーションの源とするモニュメントは、比較的知られていない。1920年代に建築家の

ジーノ・コッペデがコッペデ地区に建てた噴水だ。中世、バロック、アールデコ、アールヌーボーのスタイルをブレンドするコッペデの形象の使い方が、デレトレズのデザインに影響を与えている。「全て隠れたシンボリズムなんですが、ちょっと皮肉が効いてるんです。おとぎ話が混ざり合ってるみたいで、全く違うパラレルユニバースが出現したり創造されたりするんです。だから、ゴシックもあればアールデコもあり、リバティがあれば中世もある。素晴らしいですよ」というデレトレズ。おとぎ話の噴水からアイコニックな階段、とびきり印象的な史跡など、ローマは新世代のデザイナーにインスピレーションを与え続ける。そして、恩恵を受ける者は躊躇なく永遠の都に対する感謝の念を表すのだ。 70: Delights In Store 楽しさ溢れる必見デパートミラノの「ザ・ブライアン＆バリービルディングサンバビラ」は、12階建ての店内にデザイナーファッションから高級レストランまでありとあらゆるものが揃っている。マデリン・マレイ・ライオンズが訪ねた。ミラノは高級デザイナーブティックと最先端コンセプトストアが混在する、買い物好きにはこたえられない国際的なショッピングの都だ。その中で、店内をあちこち巡り、おいしいイタリア料理から完璧な造りの時計やジュエリーまで、各階で極上商品を存分に見て回りながら何時間でも楽しく過ごせる店の一つが「ザ・ブライアン＆バリービルディングサンバビラ」。ついつい買いたくなる品が並ぶ小売スペースが12のフロアーに展開するこの店は、ミラノ観光の必見スポットだ。「ザ・ブライアン＆バリービルデ

ィングはミラノの中心、サンバビラ広場から徒歩ですぐの場所にあり、ここからミラノ市とミラノ大聖堂の素晴らしい眺めが望めるんですよ」と、ロベルト・ザッカルディ支配人が説明してくれる。建物自体は建築家ジョヴァンニ・ムツィオの設計で、1950年代に遡るもの。「ザ・ブライアン＆バリービルディング」に改装され、2014年3月に一般にオープンした。「この刷新は外観には影響せず、正面部分は昔のままです。内装は光と開放感、透明性が特徴で、ミニマリスト的な洗練というユニークなコンセプトの下、造作のシンプルさと素材の質を追求しています。」スッキリしたラインとスマートなディスプレイで、販売される商品が際立つようになっている。それは伝統的メンズウェアを取り扱う７階であろうと、イタリアングルメブランド「イータリー」のフードマーケット専用で最上質の食材や美食家用ギフトが並ぶ地階であろうと同じだ。ザッカルディいわく、「イータリーを選んだのは卓越した食の代表的ブランドだから。ロッソ・ポモドーロ（RossoPomodoro）やアンブルゲリア（Hamburgheria）、ラ・ピアディーナ・デイ・フラテッリ・マイオーリ（La Piadina dei Fratelli Maioli）を選んだのも同じ理由です。」これらのカフェやお食事処では、おいしいハンバーガー、とびきりのピザやパスタ、伝統的なイタリアのフラットブレッドなど、誰でも何かしら気に入るものが見つかる。一方、ファッションに関しては、ザ・ブライアン＆バリービルディングはキャットウォークに登場したばかりの最新ファッションから鉄壁の評判を誇る昔ながらのブランドまで、ありとあらゆるものを取り扱っている。５階と６階はウーマンズウェアのフロアで、古典的な装いは５階の「アイコニ globalblue.com

ック・ウーマン」、モダンなスタイルは６階の「コンテンポラリー・ウーマン」のセクションにある。８階はストリートスタイルの影響を受けたメンズウェア。今のトレンドを取り入れて、くつろいだ感じのスポーティなルックスを提供している。時計やジュエリーを探すなら２階。シャネル、モンブラン、ベル＆ロスなどのブランドを揃えた魅力いっぱいのフロアだ。１階のギャラリーではブライアン＆バリーの歴史について知ることができるほか、来店者を上階に誘うディスプレイが目を引く。同店は常に未来に目を向け、新規来店者にとっても常連のファンにとっても新鮮味のある店であるよう心掛けている。「全てが常に進化しています」というザッカルディ。「お客様にユニークな体験をしていただきたいと、新ブランドの導入はもちろん、イベントや共生マーケティング活動も実施しています。」ザ・ブライアン＆バリービルディングの客層は幅広い。多数あるフロアは、その様々なニーズを考慮して巧みにレイアウトされている。ビューティ商品の買い替えに立ち寄るだけの人もいるだろうし、各フロアのベスト商品を探そうと一日中店内で過ごす人もいるかもしれない。その両方に満足してもらえるよう、建物は「ゆっくり移動可能な」階段とスピーディなエレベーターで二通りの回り方ができるようになっている。さらに、午前10時から午後 8時までと営業時間を長くして便宜を図り、一つ屋根の下にとびきりの地元ブランドと国際ブランドを豊富に揃えているのも嬉しい。「ザ・ブライアン＆バリービルディングのお客様は、ファッションにしろ食にしろジュエリーにしろ時計にしろ、優れたものをお求めです。極上の『メイド・イン・イタリア』ブランドや最高級国際レーベルが欲しいと思っていらっしゃるのです。」
