Enrica Casentini Italian illustrator Enrica Casentini created this season’s cover for SHOP Milan. Enrica’s colourful, elegant and clever style made her the perfect choice for our cover, which is based on our feature about Expo Milano 2015 and its theme of global food. It shows a fashionable woman wearing a dress made of pasta shapes in the style of Milan’s Duomo, with cofee and cocoa beans acting as accessories. To fnd out more about Expo Milano 2015, see page 62.

VIVA VALENTINO Inspired by the historical concept of the Grand Tour, which saw members of high society exploring Europe to soak up the cultural sights and sounds, the spring/summer collection from Valentino references the icons of Italy.

The intricate forms of the country’s historic architecture are refected in bold forals, while draped gowns are reminiscent of Roman dress.

Coastal Italy fnds expression in motifs of starfsh, shells, ships and underwater creatures, with a seaside theme working comfortably on formal attire and casualwear. The design team at Valentino has mastered modern femininity, and the skill behind this collection lies in the freshness it creates out of such traditional inspirations. No summer wardrobe is complete without a dress by Valentino. hl Valentino, Via Montenapoleone 20, 20121 Milan, +39 02 7600 6182, valentino.com * for map go to page 118 globalblue.com

SUCCESS The city’s rich culture and world-class Italian food will be in the spotlight during Expo Milano 2015, Verity Hogan reports

Milan often attracts attention thanks to its status as an international fashion centre and as Italy’s commercial heart, and for six months from 1 May the world’s gaze will be very frmly fxed on the city as it hosts Expo Milano 2015, a series of varied events and shows.

The exhibition site stretches for three kilometres and 144 countries will take part; 20 million visitors are expected to visit the city, many travelling on Expo-themed aeroplanes.

With these kinds of numbers involved, it is unsurprising that Expo Milan 2015 will dominate daily life in Milan throughout the spring and summer.

It’s fitting that, for a country that boasts one of the world’s finest cuisines, food is a central focus at this year’s event Expo ambassadors have been drawn from a variety of felds and include writers, athletes, actors, architects, chefs and musicians.

Fashion designer and Expo ambassador Paul Smith describes the event as ‘exciting, innovative, creative.’ It will be the perfect opportunity to showcase Milan’s many charms on the international stage. ‘Expo is a great opportunity. It’s a way to raise awareness for Italy, Milan, our beautiful landscapes,’ says former Olympic kayaker Antonio Rossi.

MTV will hold its annual EMA awards ceremony in Milan, to coincide with the climax of Expo. ‘We’re thrilled to bring the 2015 MTV EMAs to Milan,’ says the event’s executive Above (from top): an Expo-themed aeroplane; the Global Blue lounge at Expo Milano 2015; an impression of the cofee area

A new show from Cirque du Soleil has been devised while recently opened restaurants, such as Larte (in association with event sponsor Altagamma), have been designed to showcase Italy’s cuisine and culture.

Italian gourmet food company Eataly will highlight some of the country’s fnest products, from fne wines and extra virgin olive oil to

If you’re in the US in the frst part of 2015, Eataly will be exhibiting a collection of historically signifcant statues, pinnacles and gargoyles temporarily removed from Milan’s Duomo. These pieces will be shown in New York for the frst time at the ‘Eataly per Duomo’ event which will be open to the public until Expo begins in May.

With the theme of food at its heart, Expo 2015 has found a perfect partner in Milan.

‘Living in America I realise more and more how Italy leads in the feld of food,’ says basketball player Danilo Gallinari, who was born in Italy.

His feelings are echoed by acclaimed chef Davide Oldani: ‘The most important theme of Expo is healthy eating. It is only with great quality products that it is possible to produce great cooking, especially healthy cooking.’

The city is gearing up to showcase its acclaimed cuisine, high-quality produce and myriad cultural attractions to an international audience.

Italy’s designers are turning to traditional artisan techniques to impress today’s clients, Harriet Quick discovers

‘I started making sandals for myself, taking remnants of crocodile skins to small sandal makers in Positano. I also used crocodile tails, which can’t be easily made into bags, for belts. One summer, the Mr Porter team came to dinner at our home in Florence and asked me to produce the belts and sandals for them, so the line was born,’ says designer Álvaro González.

He, along with other designers living and working in Italy, is creating niche collections and bringing on board skilled artisans, small businesses and traditional ateliers. Marco de Vincenzo is a womenswear designer who skillfully combines traditional approaches 144 / 164

and modern technology to create sensational, deeply tactile clothes. Meanwhile, Carlotta Danti is a lingerie specialist. Milan-born Danti cut her teeth at Vivienne Westwood in London before returning to her home city to launch her lingerie and boudoir wear under the label Rosamosario. All three designers display impeccable taste and share a passion for the unique and for craftsmanship.

Behind these labels lies a wealth of experience. González is an accessories pioneer who, for the past 20 years, has been designing for labels including Jimmy Choo and Loro Piana; as well as running his own label, he is now also the creative director of luxury label Lef: Marco de Vincenzo spring/summer 2015

Valextra. ‘I use richly coloured calf leather, and alligator and stingray skins developed by specialist tanneries. They are then crafted into sandals, belts, small leather goods and bags by selected artisanal workshops in and around Florence,’ he says. González’s men’s and women’s sandals exude an earthy elegance which is derived from the raw leather and hand dyes used. ‘It gives them a deep lustre and handmade look that is not too “crafty”,’ he adds. The range is stocked in luxury boutiques worldwide, including Lane Crawford and Antonia in Milan.

De Vincenzo, who was born in Messina and now works from a studio in Rome, is attracting a host of admirers including stylist Giovanna Battaglia and fashion director Anna Dello Russo. For 11 years, he worked alongside Silvia Venturini, the creative head of accessories for Fendi. His love of Above (both): Rosamosario spring/summer 2015

experimentation and of trompe l’oeil visual efects is evident throughout his own collection, which he launched in 2009.

‘My collections always start from the materials and a love of 3D aspects,’ says de Vincenzo. He is known for transforming wools, silks and tweeds with waves of colour, complex cutting and print techniques. Standout pieces from his spring/summer 2015 collection include pencil skirt and jacket ensembles, crafted from squares of fringed silk which move and sway, and checked dress coats in silk tweed which are hand fringed and beaded. His innovative approach recently attracted investment from the luxury goods powerhouse LVMH.

Italy’s reputation for producing the world’s fnest textiles is well deserved. Ruairidh Pritchard picks out some of the leading names

PHOTO: © ANTOINE BOOTZ

DREAM WEAVERS For those in the know, one country excels when it comes to making fabric. Italian textile production, mainly focused in the north of the country and along the Amalf coast, stretches back hundreds of years.

Age-old skills and commitment to perfection have been maintained, which is why Italian textiles have become synonymous with unrivalled quality.

For example, the linen bed sheets, towels and table coverings that grace some of the world’s fnest hotels and smartest private residences are crafted by a handful of highly regarded, and sometimes secretive, Italian companies.

Frette is one of the best examples of traditional Italian linen production. Founded in 1860, the company was originally based in Grenoble, at the foot of the French Alps.

After moving to Monza, an industrial town near Milan, the company was exposed to the exacting standards of Italian linen production 148 / 168

158

and by the start of the 20th century it was producing some of the fnest linens available.

Still based in Monza, Frette has maintained its reputation, which is largely attributed to its patented and rather secretive method of textile bleaching which, according to the company, results in the white, soft and shiny fnish of its linens. Guests at the Ritz in Paris, Claridge’s in London and the Plaza in New York sleep between Frette sheets, while diners on the Venice Simplon-Orient-Express will be seated in front of the company’s table linen. Frette also supplies royal families across the globe.

Frette’s exquisite linens, as well as its range of sleepwear and interiors fabrics, can also be bought in its boutiques. This season the collection is inspired by countries and islands such as South Africa, Argentina and Bali, resulting in the use of elaborate motifs, crochet and lace in a vibrant mix of watercolour shades.

A similar trajectory has taken place at Sferra. The company was founded in 1891 Lef: Sferra Silvio bed linen

Sferra continues to be held in high esteem and its linens have been chosen for numerous important residences and buildings, including the White House and the Vatican

by Gennaro Sferra, one of Venice’s most talented lace craftsmen, and its linens became popular in the early 20th century among American industrialists with discerning tastes.

This success in the US led to Sferra setting up a shop on New York’s Fifth Avenue, but Gennaro Sferra always ensured he returned to Venice twice a year by steamer to create new collections of handmade lace and luxury linens.

Sferra has updated its production methods, investing in state-of-the-art technology to spin, dye and fnish each yarn to precise specifcations and stringent standards. Even so, the four key elements prioritised by Gennaro Sferra 120 years ago remain central: the fbres used, the weight of the fabric, the fnish and, perhaps most importantly, the luxurious feel Above (both): Frete spring/summer 2015

Linen isn’t the only highly coveted material being produced in Italy, as acclaimed label Loro Piana can attest. For decades the brand has been manufacturing some of the world’s most sought-after fabrics and creating collections of knitwear, shirts and jackets with sumptuous linings that have become wardrobe essentials for well-dressed people around the globe.

Loro Piana also produces a range of sumptuous interiors fabrics: its cashmere is available in more than 30 shades and can be combined with coloured suede to create

TABLE TALK Whether classic alla Milanese or a version featuring unconventional favour combinations, risotto is still Milan’s main dish.

Isabella Redmond Styles tastes a selection from around the city

Risotto is a Milanese favourite for good reason. The dish is said to have originated in the city, the result of the region’s tradition of slow cooking and infuences from Spanish cuisine. It’s a staple in many restaurants due to its versatility and popularity with customers.

The most typical incarnation is risotto alla Milanese, a simple yet sublime dish which uses safron for its distinctive yellow hue and subtle favour. This is generally served alongside osso buco – slow-cooked veal – another of the region’s renowned dishes. Risotto also works well with seasonal ingredients: come spring, risotto primavera, made with fresh green vegetables, is the order of the day, while in the summer look out for strawberry risotto (risotto alla fragole), an intriguing mix of sweet and savoury favours. Autumnal root vegetables are also classic risotto ingredients and, as a result, pumpkin and mushroom are favourite favours once the weather cools. globalblue.com

SABBADINI Sabbadini’s exquisite jewellery has been turning heads since the boutique was opened by Bruno Sabbadini in 1940. Since then, Bruno’s son Alberto and grandson Pierandrea have joined the business, opening a showroom in New York as well as the elegant Via Montenapoleone fagship store in Milan. The playful yet classic bee brooch is Sabbadini’s best-known piece, and is covered in a choice of precious and semi-precious stones with diamonds; it is also available as a bracelet or necklace.

VILLA NECCHI CAMPIGLIO In the heat of the summer, Villa Necchi Campiglio is the perfect place to visit. Built in the 1930s by Milanese architect Piero Portaluppi, the villa has a very inviting swimming pool in addition to a tennis court

ATOS LOMBARDINI Given its Italian heritage, it’s appropriate that Atos Lombardini’s spring/summer 2015 collection has been inspired by the Mediterranean sea. This translates into chic monochrome separates including jackets, shorts and loose-ftting trousers as well as clever embellishment in the form of crystals and tassels. Metallic accents and geometric prints, in keeping with vintage Moroccan carpets, give the pieces a pleasant 1970s feel.

Atos Lombardini, Corso Giacomo Matteotti 3, 20121 Milan, +39 02 7602 4081, atoslombardini.com * for map go to page 113 globalblue.com

A recent addition to the exclusive boutiques on Via della Spiga, Marco Bicego’s fagship store fts in perfectly. The Italian jewellery designer is inspired by his Venetian roots, and each piece of Bicego’s jewellery combines artisan heritage with contemporary style. This boutique showcases the Goa, Marrakesh, Jaipur, Paradise, Seville and Africa collections, which are all designed in 18-carat yellow gold. Also available alongside these is the nature-inspired Lunaria range, which features delicate, hand-engraved leafshaped pieces of irregular sizes.

Marco Bicego, Via della Spiga 5, 20122 Milan, +39 02 9122 0010, marcobicego.com * for map go to page 120

and beautiful grounds. Inside, visitors can fnd an interesting selection of artefacts, including 18th-century paintings and decorative items, and artist Claudia Gian Ferrari’s collection of early 20th-century art.

Вкус Успеха

Основными темами всемирной выставки Expo Milano 2015 станет культурная жизнь Милана и первоклассная итальянская еда, – рассказывает Верити Хоган Пользуясь почетным статусом мировой столицы моды и финансового центра Италии, Милан манит к себе туристов с самых разных уголков планеты. На протяжении полугода начиная с 1 мая, здесь пройдет знаменитая всемирная выставка Expo Milano 2015, а также ряд увлекательных мероприятий и шоу-показов.

globalblue.com

Территория выставочного комплекса протянулась на три километра в длину – именно такое пространство потребуется, чтобы вместить участников из 144 стран мира, а также 20 миллионов посетителей, которые прибудут в Милан на самолетах, интерьер которых стилизован под Expo Milano. Учитывая такие нескромные цифры, нет сомнения в том, что выставка будет главным событием для города, по крайней мере, этой весной и летом. Амбассадорами мероприятия были выбраны деятели самых разных сфер: писатели, атлеты, актеры, архитекторы, повара и музыканты. Модельер Пол Смит, которому также выпала честь представлять выставку на международном уровне, называет это событие «волнующим,

143

инновационным и творческим». Expo Milan 2015 будет прекрасным шансом для города заявить о себе на весь мир. «Эта выставка представляет собой великолепную возможность. Это способ ближе познакомить людей с Миланом, Италией и ее захватывающими пейзажами», – говорит бывший олимпийский гребец Антонио Росси. Одновременно с выставкой Expo в Милане пройдет ежегодная церемония вручения музыкальных наград Europe Music Awards, основанная телеканалом MTV. «Мы бесконечно рады провести церемонию этого года в Милане, – говорит исполнительный продюсер Брюс Гиллмер.

– Это потрясающий город, где пересекаются сферы искусства, моды и музыки». Компания Global Blue также примет участие в мероприятии. Офис Global Blue, расположившийся в центре Милана, откроет свои двери для посетителей в начале апреля. Здесь туристам будет предоставлен ряд полезных услуг, включая консультацию у экспертов по шоппингу и возможность получить возврат НДС с покупок. Первая всемирная выставка Expo состоялась в Лондоне в 1851 году и с тех пор ее приняли у себя многие города Европы. Каждая Expo обычно посвящена какой-то определенной тематике и на этот

раз выбор пал на изысканную кухню, в которой Италии сложно найти равных. Открытие выставки будет сопровождать тематическое представление цирка Cirque du Soleil, а знакомить гостей с особенностями национальной кухни будут открывшиеся недавно рестораны, такие как Larte (совместно со спонсором мероприятия Altagamma). Итальянская продуктовая сеть Eataly обещает порадовать посетителей своих магазинов в Италии и США лучшими образцами национальной гастрономии, начиная от изысканных марок вин и оливкового масла высшего сорта и заканчивая кондитерскими изделиями. Гости также смогут убедиться в том, насколько большое значение для итальянской кухни имеет качество продуктов. Если вы будете в США в первой половине 2015, то сможете застать в Eataly выставку знаменитых статуй, бельведеров и горгулий, привезенных из Миланского собора. Эти экспонаты будут показаны в Нью-Йорке впервые в рамках мероприятия ‘Eataly per Duomo’, которое продлится вплоть до официального открытия Expo в мае. Учитывая выбранную тематику, выставка Expo 2015 нашла себе идеального партнера в лице Милана. «Живя в Америке, я все больше понимаю, насколько итальянская кулинария превзошла все остальные», говорит баскетболист Данило Галлинари, итальянец по происхождению. Его мысли разделяет известный шефповар Давид Олдани: «Главная тематика Expo – здоровая еда. А по-настоящему великолепные и полезные блюда могут быть созданы лишь с использованием качественных продуктов». А пока Милан вовсю готовится к встрече гостей, которые съедутся со всего мира, чтобы приобщиться достославной кухни из качественных продуктов и, конечно же, посетить знаменитые достопримечательности. Для города это событие станет звездным часом, и такой момент лучше не упускать. expo2015.org

70: Modern Masters

Современные Мастера Итальянские дизайнеры обращаются к традиционным ремесленным приемам для того, чтобы завоевать сегодняшнего покупателя, выяснила Хариет Квик «Я начал делать сандалии для себя, относя остатки крокодиловой кожи в небольшое обувное ателье в Позитано. Я также использовал крокодиловые хвосты, из которых сложно делать сумки, для создания ремней. Как-то летом команда Mr. Porter ужинала у нас дома во Флоренции, они попросили меня сделать для них ремни и сандалии, так и родилась моя линия», globalblue.com

говорит дизайнер Альваро Гонзалез. Он, как и другие живущие и работающие в Италии модельеры, выпускает нишевые коллекции с помощью группы талантливых мастеров, небольших бизнесов и традиционных ателье. Marco de Vincenzo – дизайнер женской одежды, который ловко объединяет традиционный подход с современными технологиями для создания вещей. Carlotta Danti – специалист по нижнему белью. Родом из Милана Данти стажировалась в Vivienne Westwood в Лондоне, после чего вернулась в родной город, чтобы запустить бренд нижнего белья под названием Rosamosario. Все три дизайнера обладают безупречным вкусом и разделяют страсть к уникальности и

искусной работе. За этими именами стоит огромный опыт. Гонзалез является гением аксессуаров, ведь уже 20 лет он работает с такими компаниями, как Jimmy Choo и Loro Piana. Более того, помимо руководства собственным брендом, он сейчас также является креативным директором премиальной марки Valextra. «Я использую ярко окрашенную телячью кожу и шкуры аллигаторов и скатов, доставляемые со специализированных кожевенных фабрик. Затем в мастерских во Флоренции из этих материалов создаются сандалии, ремни и другие кожные изделия и сумки», говорит он. Мужские и женские сандалии от Gonzalez элегантны, что получается благодаря необработанной коже и окраске вручную. «Это придает им блеска и немного грубоватый, не слишком вычурный вид», -

добавляет он. Его коллекции можно найти в роскошных бутиках по всему миру, включая Lane Crawford и Antonia в Милане. Де Винченцо родился в Мессине, а сейчас работает в студии в Риме, и уже имеет группу поклонников, в которые входят Джованна Баталья и модный редактор Анна Делло Руссо. Почти 11 лет он работал бок о бок с Сильвией Вентурини, креативным директором по аксессуарам Fendi. Его любовь к экспериментам и визуальному эффекту тромплей (обман зрения) прослеживается в его собственной линии, которую он запустил в 2009. «Мои коллекции всегда начинаются с материалов и любви к 3D иллюзиям», - говорит Винченцо. Он славится своей способностью преобразовывать шерсть, шелк и твид с помощью волн цвета, сложного кроя и экспериментов с принтами. В ряд самых ярких вещей из его весеннелетней коллекции 2015 вошли костюмы из юбки-карандаша и пиджака, выполненные из лоскутов бахромчатого шелка, который двигался и качался, и пальто в клетку из твида, которое было вручную украшено бахромой и бисером. Его инновационный подход недавно привлек инвестиции гиганта роскошной продукции LVMH. Игровой площадкой для Карлотты Данти является будуар, а ее идолами – звезды времен зенита итальянского кинематографа. В ее коллекциях представлены пижамы с сахарно-розовым кружевом и идеально скроенные корсетные изделия, включая длинные шелковые пеньюары с тонким кружевом и халаты из органзы с цветочным принтом. Ее работа обеспечила дизайнеру несколько специальных заказов от таких клиентов, как Бейонсе, Рианна и члены королевской семьи Саудовской Аравии, а в число работающих с ней ритейлеров входит Net-a-porter. «Время, посвященное себе и вещам, которые мы любим, заставляет нас чувствовать себя особенными», - объясняет Данти. Именно особенными и являются эти новые дизайнеры. alvarogonzalez.co, marcodevincenzo.com, rosamosario.com

Ткачи Мечты

Итальянский текстиль считается одним из самых лучших в мире – и неспроста. Руайрид Притчард рассказывает о ведущих брендах Когда дело касается производства ткани, только одну страну можно по праву считать лидером в этой области. История итальянской текстильной промышленности, сосредоточенной в основном на севере страны и вдоль побережья Амальфи, насчитывает не одну сотню лет. Итальянцы бережно хранят свои вековые традиции и не перестают стремиться к совершенству, именно поэтому итальянский текстиль остается синонимом непревзойденного качества. Например, постельное белье, полотенца globalblue.com

и скатерти, украшающие ряд лучших мировых отелей и частных особняков, зачастую создаются небольшой группой уважаемых итальянских компаний.

Frette – один из лучших образцов традиционного итальянского постельного белья. Компания была основана в 1860 году в Гренобле, у подножия французских Альп. После переезда в Монцу, промышленный город недалеко от Милана, в компанию были внедрены новые высокие стандарты производства и, начиная с ХХ века, Frette стала производить одни из лучших постельных принадлежностей в мире. Компания Frette по сей день расположена в Монце и нисколько не утратила своей славы. Фирменный метод отбеливания тканей, запатентованный во многих странах, позволяет придать белью неповторимую белизну, мягкость и блеск. Простыни Frette можно встретить

в номерах отеля Ritz в Париже, Claridge в Лондоне и Plaza в Нью-Йорке, а фирменные скатерти украшают столики Восточного экспресса, курсирующего между Парижем и Стамбулом. Frette также поставляет свою продукцию в королевские дома по всему миру. Изысканное белье Frette, а так же коллекции пижам и тканей для отделки интерьера можно приобрести в бутиках бренда. На создание коллекции этого сезона Frette вдохновили различные страны и острова, такие как Южная Африка, Аргентина и Бали. В результате в основу коллекции были положены сложные мотивы, кроше и кружева в сочетании с яркими оттенками акварели. Похожая ситуация сложилась и в компании Sferra. Основал фирму в 1891 году Дженнаро Сферра – один из globalblue.com

самых талантливых мастеров кружева в Венеции. Белье его производства завоевало популярность среди взыскательных американских промышленников начала ХХ века. Молниеносный успех в США позволил Sferra открыть бутик на Пятой авеню в НьюЙорке, но при этом Дженнаро Сферра не переставал посещать Венецию дважды в год, где он создавал новые коллекции кружева ручной работы и роскошное постельное белье.

Sferra регулярно совершенствует свои методы производства, инвестируя в современные технологии окраски и отделки пряжи, при этом ни на йоту не нарушая высокие стандарты качества. Четыре элемента, определенные Дженнаро Сферра еще 120 лет назад как ключевые, до сих пор не поменялись. Речь идет о типе волокна, весе ткани, отделке, и, пожалуй, самом главном, ощущение роскоши, возникающем от прикосновения к готовому изделию. Продукция Sferra высоко ценится во всем мире, а постельное белье бренда украшает интерьер множества элитных особняков, включая Белый дом и Ватикан. Белье – не единственная гордость итальянского швейного производства и знаменитая марка Loro Piana тому подтверждение. В течение многих десятилетий бренд создает по праву роскошные ткани, а также выпускает серию трикотажа, рубашек и курток с великолепными подкладками, давно уже ставших неотъемлемой частью гардероба модников по всему миру.

Loro Piana также производит широкий ассортимент шикарных тканей для отделки интерьера. При создании одеял, подушек и покрывал в ход идет кашемировая ткань 30 различных оттенков, иногда в сочетании с цветной замшей. Многие клиенты предпочитают дополнять готовую продукцию индивидуальными монограммами и вышивками, которые отлично смотрятся в интерьере их самолетов или вертолетов, в то время как другие просят, чтобы на обивочную ткань был нанесен морской алфавит и название их яхты.

152

Постоянный спрос на роскошные итальянские ткани почти наверняка связан с их первоклассным качеством и тем фактом, что проницательные клиенты привыкли доверять итальянскому текстилю с его богатой историей, современной технологией производства и непревзойденной отделкой. frette.com, sferra.com, loropiana.com 138: When you shop the world, shop tax free Совершая покупки по всему миру, совершайте их с Tax Free

隐藏在这些品牌背后的是丰富的行业经验和创 意。González在过去20年里一直是配饰领域的先 锋，他曾为Jimmy Choo和Loro Piana等品牌服务； 除了经营自己的品牌，他还是奢华品牌Valextra的创 意总监。 “我选用色彩丰富的小牛皮、鳄鱼皮和皮革 商专门研发的黄貂鱼皮。然后我会在佛罗伦萨及周 边地区挑选手工作坊，将其制作成凉鞋、皮带、小皮 具和包袋， ”他说。González的男式与女式凉鞋以其 原生态皮革和手工印染，彰显朴实的优雅。 “这赋予 他们深沉的光泽度与具有手工感觉又不会太‘粗糙’ 的外观， ”他补充道。该系列可见于全球各地的奢侈品 专卖店，包括连卡佛和米兰的Antonia。 出生于Messina的De Vincenzo如今在罗马设 立了工作间，吸引了从造型师Giovanna Battaglia 到时装主编Anna Dello Russo等人慕名而来。过 去11年中，他一直与Fendi的配饰创意总监Silvia Venturini并肩合作。他对于试验性作品以及错视 效果的偏爱，在其2009年推出的自有系列中可见 一斑。 “我的作品总是从材质与对3D效果的偏爱入 globalblue.com

手， ”de Vincenzo表示。他的盛名来自于以绚丽色 彩、复杂裁剪与印花等手法，对羊毛、丝绸与粗花呢 等材质进行转化。其2015年春/夏系列中的出挑作 品，包括以流苏方块丝绸制成的、摇曳生姿的铅笔裙 与夹克外套，以及用手工编织和串珠的丝绸花呢打 造的格纹连衣裙外套。他的创新手法最近吸引到了 奢侈品巨头LVMH的投资。 闺房是Carlotta Danti的游乐场，意大利电影 全盛时期的荧幕偶像则是她的招牌灵感来源。她 的精致作品包括糖粉色蕾丝睡衣，以及结构巧妙 的紧身衣，譬如一件缀满精巧蕾丝的丝质晨衣长袍 与花朵图案薄纱长袍。她的作品吸引了一大批包括 Beyoncé、Rihanna以及沙特阿拉伯王室成员在内 的定制顾客，同时也在Net a Porter上贩售。Danti 认为： “我们花在自己身上的时间、我们钟爱的物品 让我们感觉与众不同。”而与众不同，正是这一批新 设计师们共同的关注点。 alvarogonzalez.co, marcodevincenzo.com, rosamosario.com

例えば、世界有数の高級ホテルやスタイリッシュ な私邸で使われるベッドリネンやタオル、テーブルク ロスは、定評のある（そして時に秘密主義的な）少数 のイタリア企業が作ったものだ。 イタリア伝統のリネンといえば、まず名が挙がる メーカーの一つがフレッテだ。1860創業の同社は、 元々はフレンチアルプスの麓のグルノーブルにあっ た。ミラノ近郊の工業の町モンツァに移転してから、 イタリアのリネン生産の厳しい基準を求められるよう になり、20世紀に入る頃には最高級品を作るまでに なった。 今でもモンツァを拠点とするフレッテは、主に特 許登録された独自のテキスタイル漂白法のおかげで

その評判を守り続けている。同社によれば、この技 術によってリネンが白く、柔らかく、艶のある仕上が りになるのだそうだ。パリのリッツホテルやロンドン のクラリッジスホテル、ニューヨークのプラザホテル の宿泊客はフレッテのシーツで寝、オリエント急行 の乗客は同社のテーブルリネンを前に腰かけてい る。フレッテは世界中の王族にも納品している。 フレッテの極上リネンや寝間着、インテリアファ ブリックは、同社のブティックでも買える。今シーズ ンのコレクションは、南アフリカ、アルゼンチン、バリ などの国や島々にインスピレーションを得たもので、 精妙なモチーフやクロシェット編み、水彩画の鮮や かな色彩が揃ったレースが使われている。

上手のワードローブにはなくてはならないものになっ ている。 ロロ・ピアーナは高級インテリアファブリックも 作っている。同社のカシミアは30種類以上の色が揃 っており、染めたスエードと組み合わせてブランケッ トやクッション、スローにすることもできる。モノグラ ムや刺繍でパーソナル化することも可能だ。自家用ジ ェットやヘリコプターの内装に取り入れる人がいるか と思えば、船舶用信号旗や船の名前をヨットのイン テリアにあしらう人もいる。 イタリア製高級ファブリックの需要が絶えない ことが、その比類ない品質と、豊かな歴史があり造り が良くて仕上げの美しいイタリアのテキスタイルを目 の肥えたクライアントが選んでいるという事実に関 係しているのはほぼ間違いない。

スフェラも似たような歴史を持つ。この会社は

1891年にヴェニス有数のレース職人ジェンナロ・スフ ェラが創設し、そのリネンは20世紀初頭に目の肥え たアメリカ人産業資本家の間で人気を得た。アメリ カで成功したスフェラはニューヨークの5番街に店を オープンしたが、ジェンナロは年に二度蒸気船で必 ずヴェニスへ戻り、手作りレースや高級リネンの新コ レクションを製作した。 スフェラは新しい生産技法を取り入れ、最先端 技術に投資して糸の一本一本を厳密な仕様と厳しい 基準に合わせて紡ぎ、染め、仕上げた。そんなスフェ ラだが、今でも大切にしているのはジェンナロが120 年前に注力した4つの主要素だ。使用する繊維、ファ ブリックの重量、仕上げ、そしておそらく最も重要な のが最終的に織り上がった布の高級感だ。スフェラ の評判は相変わらず高く、同社のリネンはホワイトハ ウスやバチカンなど数多くの重要な邸宅や建物に使 われてきた。 イタリア製が珍重されるのはリネンだけではな い。そのことはロロ・ピアーナの評判が証明してい る。このブランドは数十年にわたり、世界で最も珍重 されるファブリックをいくつか生産し、ニットウェアや シャツ、ジャケットのコレクションを製作してきた。贅 沢な裏地の付いたジャケットは、世界中の着こなし
