A POWERFUL LOOK The latest creations from Bulgari’s iconic Serpenti line are as elegant as ever, setting brilliant diamonds against the soft, feminine backdrop of pale rose gold. The snake has been a symbol of power since ancient Greek and Roman times, suggesting eternity, renewal and beauty. It is associated with such signifcant fgures as Aphrodite, goddess of
love, and Cleopatra, queen of the Nile. These are the ideals that the Italian fne jewellery house presents in its Serpenti collection, and in the Serpenti Tubogas necklace the concept of feminine power is more central than ever. The curves of the piece sit perfectly against the curves of the wearer’s neck, creating a show-stopping piece of jewellery. hl Bulgari, Via dei Condotti 10, 00187 Rome, +39 06 696261, bulgari.com * for map go to page 98

For luxurious outerwear with a fashion edge, look no further than Moncler’s latest womenswear collection. From cocoon coats to capes to bomber jackets, Moncler ofers a shape to suit every taste and fgure, but it is the textures and detailing that take centre stage here. A subtle colour palette highlights the softness of fne wool or the volume of jacquard on otherwise classic coats. Deep black is chosen as the base for bold winter forals on sporty bomber jackets. Structured shapes exaggerate the contrasts of luxurious fabrics, with jacquard pieces edged in fur proving a real highlight. For evening, look out for the soft wool cape with foral beading: the perfect piece to wear over a cocktail dress. hl Moncler, Piazza di Spagna 77, 00187 Rome, +39 06 6994 0292, moncler.com * for map go to page 98

SOFTLY, SOFTLY Max Mara presents a feminine yet bold collection this season, taking much of its inspiration from images of Marilyn Monroe in the 1960s. This concept works beautifully with the Italian fashion house’s classic style, which has always focused on excellent materials and tailoring. Here it becomes softer and more rounded than in recent seasons, while still maintaining Max Mara’s globalblue.com
distinctive style. Soft tailoring is key, and some of the season’s best coats and jackets can be found in this collection. Soft and slouchy is a strong silhouette for autumn/winter, and Max Mara’s contrasts between ftted separates and loose knitwear make for one of the most grown-up and feminine takes on the trend. hl Max Mara, Via dei Condotti 17-19, 00187 Rome, +39 06 6992 2104, maxmara.com * for map go to page 98
Layers and textures take centre stage in Marina Rinaldi’s collection for autumn/winter 2015/16, which focuses on a wintry but warm palette of deep greys, navy blues, muted jewel tones and, of course, classic black. Contrasting materials are superimposed to add a new dimension to timeless silhouettes. Lace and wool add texture, while fashes of bold checks and animal prints stand out against slimming block colours. As always with Marina Rinaldi, the hourglass is the central shape, and the collection wouldn’t be complete without a selection of waist-cinching belts. mkh Marina Rinaldi, Via Borgognona 4-5/ Via Bocca di Leone 79, 00187 Rome, +39 06 6920 0487, marinarinaldi.com * for map go to page 98

Creative duo Catia Di Carlo and Andrea Bonfni met in Rome while studying fashion design. They came together a few years later to create CA2, an accessories brand that uses only leather, transferring traditional Chinese papercarving techniques to leather gloves, scarves, and shawls. CA2 pieces are both intricate and unique. Di Carlo and Bonfni describe their leather patterns as ‘tattoos’, and it’s easy to see why. The items mould to the body and take on a second-skin quality. This season’s colours range from vivid purple and deep red to black, white and metallic. th

BAUHAUS STYLE Drawing inspiration from its own archives, Fratelli Rossetti has given a Bauhaus spin to its accessories for autumn/ winter, updating some of its core styles with the bold lines and contrasting colours of this famous architectural school. Originally launched in 1975, these ankle boots have been reimagined in bold colour schemes which juxtapose light and dark hues, the Bauhausinspired design making use
of contrasting textures and shades. The style is already loved for its classic shape and quality materials, and the new design updates its 1970s look for the modern day. mkh

This season also sees the introduction of two luxury accessories: the fringed scarf, made with Scottishwoven check cashmere, and the carryall bag, an unstructured tote in grainy leather with suede fringing. rp Burberry, Via dei Condotti 59-61, 00187 Rome, +39 06 675 0101, burberry.com * for map go to page 98 Save up to 15.5% by shopping tax free, see page 114

INTENSE SCENTS
SPELLING IT OUT Donatella Versace knows how to draw attention to her designs and for autumn/winter 2015/16 her attitude is certainly ‘more is more’. Prints, vibrant primary colours, sky-high heels and over-the-knee boots are some of the bold elements of the collection. Big, square belts are also a focal point this season, proving that often accessories are central to creating the perfect outft.
The colour combinations of black with red and black with green take us back several decades, refecting a version of the brand’s long history that fts into the digital age. The crystal pieces that spell out the Versace name, which feature in many of the looks, are a nod to the original line created under Gianni Versace. fm Versace, Via Bocca di Leone 26, 00187 Rome, +39 06 678 0521, versace.com * for map go to page 94

Dolce & Gabbana’s latest fragrance releases, Velvet Exotic Leather and Velvet Mimosa Bloom, result from the design duo’s exploration of the ancient traditions of perfumery. Part of the Velvet collection, the new scents are built on the olfactory memories of Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, and are designed to awake the senses with their intensity. For men, Exotic Leather recreates the essence of masculine skin, featuring woody notes as well as the complex scent of leather itself. For women, Mimosa Bloom places the mimosa fower centre stage; mandarin, bergamot, narcissus and violet all further enhance this complex foral fragrance. mkh Dolce & Gabbana, Piazza di Spagna 93-95, 00187 Rome, +39 06 699 1592, dolcegabbana.com * for map go to page 94

MODERN LUXE
BACK TO BASICS
This season’s Ermenegildo Zegna menswear collection is a masterclass in luxury fabrics. The Italian fashion house, founded over a century ago as a luxury wool mill, has gone back to its roots with pieces crafted from the fnest wools and cashmeres. A palette of dusky pastels, earthy khaki greens and rusty browns dominates an otherwise monochrome collection. Highlights include cashmere poloneck sweaters matched with exquisitely tailored velvet sports coats, while an impressive array of tweed caps is echoed in a tweed printed raincoat. This collection, which matches luxury fabrics with practical necessity, makes it easy to see why Ermenegildo Zegna is a go-to label for luxury modern menswear. rp Ermenegildo Zegna, Via dei Condotti 58, 00187 Rome, +39 06 6994 0678, zegna.com * for map go to page 98
Italian fashion powerhouse Prada introduced a beautifully simple menswear ofering at Milan men’s fashion week earlier this year. Focused squarely on utilitarian elegance, the collection is more of a luxury uniform for modern life than a series of trend-led pieces. This understated range is built upon crisp nylon, primarily seen in shirts and raincoats, reminiscent of the Pocone nylon backpacks head designer Miuccia Prada created when she frst joined the family frm in the late 1970s. While hints of navy and steely blues and greys make very brief appearances, the collection is almost entirely black. Its slick silhouettes and fabrics mark it out as one of the label’s most forward-looking, and introduce a new set of luxury wardrobe staples. rp Prada, Via dei Condotti 88-90, 00187 Rome, +39 06 679 0897, prada.com * for map go to page 98

PAPER TRAIL
Without sacrifcing their time-honoured charm, Italy’s traditional stationers have evolved to meet modern demands, as Verity Hogan discovers
56 | F E AT U R E S
F
rom the Dukes of Savoy to the young aristocrats on the Grand Tour, those with a taste for the fner things in life have always admired Italy’s handmade paper. Today, the country’s stationery still enjoys an acclaimed reputation. Much of it is manufactured using the fnest traditional components, incorporating techniques that have remained almost unchanged since the early 18th century. From leather-bound journals and personalised, embossed writing paper to visiting cards and covered storage boxes, the range available is extensive and of the highest quality.
In Europe, the oldest known surviving document on paper (as opposed to parchment) is housed in the state archive in Palermo. With text in Arabic and Greek, it dates back to 1109. Yet it is widely believed that it wasn’t until the 13th century that Italian stationers took the ancient method of papermaking and transformed it into a major commercial product, becoming internationally renowned for paper production in the process. Few companies can boast a more illustrious legacy than Fabriano, with a heritage dating back to 1264. The company takes its name from the little town of Fabriano in the Marche

region where it is based. This became a successful papermaking centre largely because of its proximity to Ancona, a port with particularly strong ties to Arab trade routes. In the 15th century, fne arts papers made here were used and highly praised by Michelangelo. The town’s workshops pioneered techniques that are now commonplace in the papermaking industry, such as using watermarks, and surface sheet gluing with gelatine. Fabriano the company developed from these artisans’ workshops and has remained successful thanks to its ability to adapt, responding to trends and catering to changing consumer demands. The product range has evolved beyond fne arts to include everyday ofce supplies and drawing pads as well as beautifully presented writing sets. Today, the company is also committed to renewable energy and makes extensive use of self-generated hydroelectric power in its production.

The company has been able to survive and thrive for more than 240 years by maintaining the traditional production methods from which its frst fortunes were made. Yet modern techniques have also been incorporated. ‘Of course, new techniques and new technologies have changed some procedures,’ Zamboni says. ‘But the colouring of the borders in some of our collections is still done by hand, as it used to be ages ago. It’s the same with the making of our paper boxes, which are handcrafted in house.’

In contrast, the product range at Il Papiro is grounded in artisanal tradition and each of the company’s 18 shops has been designed to have a traditional air, refecting the elegant atmosphere of its frst store in Florence. Items on ofer range from paisley-printed notebooks to leather-bound journals and stunning hand-marbled papers. The company’s owners, Francesco Giannini and Gianni Parenti, were born in Florence and are closely associated with the city’s artisan community, ensuring that their products retain historic charm and boast a timeless quality that defes passing trends. Pineider is one of Italy’s oldest paper manufacturers, having catered to a suitably discerning clientele since Francesco Pineider opened his frst shop in 1774. ‘Our stationery is one of a kind and known internationally for the unique quality of the paper stocks and the exclusive printing techniques of our master hand engravers,’ explains company spokeswoman Linda Zamboni. ‘Our paper is all chlorine-free, the inks are natural, and we apply traditional Italian artisanal methods to make our papers perfect to the touch and wonderful to write on.’

From made-to-order visiting cards to writing papers featuring elegant, embossed characters and coats of arms, Pineider’s varied product range has always attracted a dedicated following. Former clients include literary heavyweights such as Lord Byron and Elizabeth Barrett Browning, and Hollywood stars from Marlene Dietrich to Elizabeth Taylor. ‘Our clientele is still the most refned in the world,’ says Zamboni. ‘We’re very thankful to all those who appreciate the unique quality of our made-in-Italy stationery products.’ Today, the company ofers a wide range of stationery goods, from beautifully crafted pieces for a special occasion – papers featuring hand-engraved cursive lettering, and modern square cards and envelopes with printed coloured borders – to the Capri collection, which features hand-coloured borders made from natural pigments and envelopes with matching handmade tissue paper lining. Above: Pineider’s hand-engraved casts
The company is continually evolving. Zamboni reveals a development hitherto a secret: Pineider is about to launch a new engraving technique. It will, she says, ‘have the result of an embossed printing from a hand-engraved cast of a calligraphic text.’ In a world where communication is increasingly conducted electronically, it is heartening to see that demand for high-quality stationery in Italy has increased rather than diminished. Without losing touch with their roots, the companies that frst catered to the literary elite and aristocratic adventurers have been able to develop their product selections to appeal to a modern audience. As Zamboni explains, ‘hand engraving dates back to previous centuries but, of course, now new technologies are involved. The precision of the master engraver, though, is the same as it used to be.’ fabriano.com, ilpapirofrenze.it, pineider.com

REINVENTING ROMANCE

From sending Hollywood stars down its catwalk to the opening of a new fagship store in Rome, Valentino has a new lease of life, says Harriet Quick

ometimes a city belongs to a fashion house and right now Valentino can rightly stake a claim to Rome. The fabled city that has bewitched designers, architects, flmmakers and creators through the centuries is home to Valentino’s monumental new fagship store and headquarters, located on Piazza di Spagna, next to the 16th-century Palazzo Mignanelli. The piazza and its famous Spanish Steps are steeped in history and the Fontana della Barcaccia at the foot of the steps is the work of sculptor Pietro Bernini and his son Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Last July, Valentino’s joint creative directors Pierpaolo Piccioli and Maria Grazia Chiuri celebrated their leadership and showcased the couture collection with a magical party. ‘We are the second generation of fashion,’ says Piccioli. Both he and Chiuri, 118 / 126

the message, the music, the space and the girls. Working together on this is fascinating. Having two points of view makes the vision more interesting and maybe more complex.’ Although the party’s spectacular freworks and catwalk show have passed, the store, designed by David Chipperfeld Architects, promises to captivate well into the future. This three-storey, 1,470-square-metre space, clad in grey Venetian terrazzo, timber and leather, with polished columns and striking single-drop lighting, emanates that hard-toachieve combination of monumental presence and grace. The stripped-back environment allows the cool, romantic DNA of the modern Valentino brand to shine through. Men can even have jeans made to measure. Over the past ten years, Piccioli and Chiuri, who were formerly employed as heads of accessories at the brand, have been working away to rejuvenate Valentino and reinterpret the glamour and passion that made founder Valentino Garavani, who retired in 2007, a household name.

The path they’ve chosen is a fnely tuned balance of artisanal techniques, modern wearability (some dresses even have pockets!) and a dreamy, insouciant attitude. You can see it in the long, poetic feather, lace and patchwork dresses they have made their trademark, in the stud rivets that adorn their bestselling heels, in the cool camoufage sneakers and the 3D embroidered foral handbags (made in collaboration with print legend Celia Birtwell), and in the butterfy prints that fit over spring/ summer’s menswear pieces. ‘We don’t know what’s going to happen tomorrow, it’s important to create a style for now,’ says Chiuri. ‘And we need to dream – dreams show optimism, the promise of change, however difcult that might be.’ It’s an image that is winning fans the world over; not only women – Keira Knightley, Alexa Chung and Olivia Palermo are some of Valentino’s many famous devotees – but also men. At the Paris autumn/winter 2015 ready-to-wear collections, Valentino stole the show when actors Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson strode down the catwalk for the fnale wearing shades of blue silk and denim in
their Zoolander roles of Derek Zoolander and Hansel. The injection of wit into the serious world of luxury proved infectious. The moment created a barrage of social media (Valentino’s Instagram followers number over three million) and brilliantly announced the return of Wilson and Stiller in Zoolander 2, slated for release in early 2016. Scenes for the flm have been shot in Valentino’s Rome atelier. Behind the scenes, CEO Stefano Sassi is engineering a buoyant future for the house under its new owner, Mayhoola for Investments, a Qatari-based investment fund that acquired Valentino for a reputed €700m in 2012. Sassi praises Chiuri and Piccioli’s clarity of vision and their skillful mix of the ‘informal and formal.’ Rome is experiencing a cultural renaissance, as new designers such as Marco de Vincenzo and Stella Jean and artists such as Frieze star Gabriele de Santis rise through the maelstrom of tough economic times. This makes it an even more enticing city to visit. And all you need to fully immerse yourself in the new Valentino world and allow the design to work its magic is a little time to daydream valentino.com
OFF THE BEATEN TRACK Rome’s Ostiense and Testaccio districts reveal some unusual sights and distinctive tastes to Sally McIlhone

isitors to a city with attractions as popular and frequently photographed as Rome’s can be forgiven for thinking there are no hidden gems left to mine. Happily, two of the city’s lesser-known districts, Ostiense and Testaccio, have yet to become part of the well-trodden tourist trail. Located in the south of Rome, Ostiense was recently the subject of a New York Times piece following reinvestment in the area and the arrival of the world’s largest branch of Eataly, the Italian gourmet department store. Strolling through this former industrial centre,

it’s impossible to miss the old factories that have been given a new lease of life with bright street art. Alongside are landmarks from the area’s past, such as the Gasometro, or gasometer, often described locally as the ‘modern Colosseum’, while in Testaccio, a short walk north, the Ex Mattatoio, or ex-slaughterhouse, now houses Macro, the Museo d’Arte Contemporanea Roma. Exploring the areas on foot makes an unusual urban safari; a perfect way to wander of the beaten track.

For those with a penchant for more classical works of art, a visit to Ostiense’s Musei Capitolini Centrale Montemartini is a must. The Giovanni Montemartini Thermoelectric Centre was Rome’s frst electricity-producing public power plant. In 1997, its restructured rooms were transformed into a unique exhibition space and used to house sculptures from the Palazzo dei Conservatori museum, the Museo Nouvo and the Braccio Nuovo. The Machines and the Gods exhibition of 1997 juxtaposed classical stone fgures with antique machinery to stunning efect and, thanks to a staggeringly positive response, the former plant became part of the municipal museum system. The Musei Capitolini Centrale Montemartini is another landmark that’s helping to redefne the district as a new cultural centre in Rome. As well as acclaimed art galleries, Ostiense also ofers a wide variety of dining options, including Hopside, an award-winning woodpanelled gastropub famed for its Italian and craft beers. Patrizia de Titta, Hopside’s general manager, explains that the company wanted to
contribute to Ostiense’s regeneration following its decline after the closure of Rome’s wholesale market in the 1990s. ‘The decision to open in Ostiense came from the desire to be surrounded by a challenging environment as well as to play a leading role in the new development of this area of Rome,’ she says. Alongside its menu of beers, Hopside ofers a delectable array of Italian meats and cheese as well as burgers and more American-inspired fare. Just north and east of Ostiense, the Testaccio neighbourhood is the original epicurean area of Rome and the place where cucina romana has its roots. Eating Italy food tours ofers a four-hour Taste of Testaccio walking tour of the area. ‘The tour features nine authentic food stops with 12 delicious tastings, and guests get to escape the crowds and taste the best of what Rome has to ofer,’ explains Maria Pasquale, the company’s PR and social media manager. ‘Along the way our experienced guides entertain and educate visitors with stories and insights into Rome’s culture and history, exploring the city’s most fascinating ofbeat landmarks.’

As well as ofering tastings of pizza, gelato and three local pasta dishes (cacio e pepe, amatriciana and carbonara), the tour takes in the local market where guests can sample fresh bruschetta and ricotta cannoli. With a maximum of 12 guests on each tour, visitors are assured a personal service. ‘Our tour lets you experience Rome like a local, in a working-class Roman neighbourhood where people live, eat and shop,’ says Pasquale. Another authentic slice of Roman life can be found at Volpetti. This delicatessen and specialist food store opened in 1973, previously catering to
the discerning employees of the local market and slaughterhouses. ‘They were real food experts, always looking for the right ingredient for their homemade meals,’ says Alessandro Volpetti. Today, the store remains an essential resource for locals and it vacuum-packs its speciality meats and cheese for visitors. ‘Testaccio is still like a small village in a big city,’ Volpetti explains. ‘Beyond the many traces of Roman history you fnd here, Testaccio is also considered one of the gastronomic hearts of Rome.’ After stocking up on epicurean delights, be sure to explore Testaccio’s array of independent stores. Andrea 925 is a highlight, ofering a standout selection of silver jewellery. Choose from rings shaped like cassettes and lucky horseshoes, and pendants in the form of headphones and record players.

RAISING THE BAR Rome’s bars ofer everything from chic cocktails to great food. Theresa Harold suggests some perfect places to imbibe
The Italian concept of aperitivo, very much a part of Rome’s culture, is the time to relax before a delicious dinner and enjoy a sophisticated drink with a few simple dishes to pique the appetite. Campari and soda, an Aperol spritz or a chilled glass of Prosecco are among the most popular Italian aperitivi but there is more to it than bar snacks and alcohol; the aperitivo hour is a time to wind down, chat, and see and be seen. Most establishments will ofer a selection of light refreshments, usually complimentary, and likely to range from olives and nuts to bruschetta, tramezzini (sandwiches), pasta, salads, or even small portions of pizza – bear in mind that Italian dinner is often served quite late in the evening, though don’t be tempted to eat too much. Aperitivo hours vary from bar to bar, but are likely to start around 6pm and fnish by 9pm. The right atmosphere can make or break your aperitivo, so be sure to choose a spot with great service and a memorable setting. globalblue.com

2. Keats-Shelley House The Keats-Shelley museum is well worth a visit on account of its fascinating insight into the time that the two English Romantic poets spent in Rome and its cosy wood-panelled walls and book-lined shelves make it a welcome stop on a winter’s day.

Miuccia Prada’s autumn/winter 2015/16 collection for Miu Miu is a glorious mishmash of colours, patterns, and even eras. Outfts are an exercise in contrasts, with thick houndstooth coats teamed with patent crocodile leather miniskirts. The efect is a joyous assault on the senses. Look out for bags and shoes with a distinctly 1950s feel, albeit with a cartoon-like Miu Miu makeover.

Бумажный След
Легендарные итальянские производители канцелярских товаров достойно реагируют на вызовы современности без ущерба традиционному мастерству, – рассказывает Верити Хоган Традиционная итальянская бумага восхищала не одно поколение ценителей изящного, начиная от герцогов Савойиских и заканчивая молодыми аристократами, отправлявшимися в путешествие «Грантур». Сегодня бумажная индустрия страны славится по-прежнему. Большая часть производства основывается на лучших globalblue.com
материалах, а техника изготовления мало чем отличается от той, что применялась в начале 18 века. Ассортимент изделий весьма широк и охватывает практически все: от кожаных ежедневников и тисненой бумаги для письма до визитных карточек и картонных ящиков. Старейший из имеющихся в Европе бумажных документов (не считая пергаментных) хранится в государственном фонде в Палермо. Текст документа написан на арабском и греческом языке, а сам документ датируется 1109 годом. Принято полагать, что начиная с 13 века итальянские мастера освоили древний способ производства бумаги и решили поставить дело на коммерческую основу, мгновенно получив всемирное признание. Немного компаний могут похвастаться столь же богатым опытом в сфере производства бумаги, как у Fabriano, чья история началась еще в 1264 году. Своим именем компания обязана небольшому городу Фабриано в регионе Марке. Это место стало крупным центром бумажной промышленности из-за своей близости к порту Анкона, в который регулярно прибывали грузы из стран Ближнего Востока. Бумага для рисования, производившаяся здесь в 15 столетии, получила высокую оценку самого Микеланджело. Именно в этом городе были открыты многие инновационные технологии, использующиеся по сей день, например, водяные знаки и способ грунтования бумаги с помощью желатина. Компания Fabriano возникла на базе тех самых ремесленных мастерских и смогла сохранить популярность благодаря своей способности адаптироваться, замечать новые тенденции и реагировать на изменение потребительского спроса. Ассортимент продукции давно вышел за рамки изобразительного искусства и стал включать привычные канцелярские принадлежности, блокноты и наборы
117
для письма. Сегодня фирма также старается придерживаться экологичности производства, используя в качестве источника энергии собственную ГЭС. В то же время продукция другой известной компании Il Papiro остается верна бесхитростной ремесленнической традиции, а каждый из 18 магазинов бренда повторяет элегантную атмосферу самого первого бутика компании, открытого во Флоренции. Ассортимент варьируется от записных книжек с «огуречным» орнаментом до кожаных ежедневников и восхитительной мраморной бумаги ручной работы. Основатели компании Франческо Джаннини и Джанни Паренти родились во Флоренции и имеют тесные связи с местной общиной ремесленников. Своей главной задачей они считают сохранение исторического шарма и первоклассного качества, бросающего вызов скоротечным тенденциям. Pineider – один из старейших производителей бумаги. Свой первый магазин Франческо Пинейдер открыл в 1774 году и сумел снискать расположение самых взыскательных клиентов. «Наши канцелярские принадлежности уникальны и известны практически во всем мире, благодаря своему непревзойденному качеству и эксклюзивным способам печати наших мастеров-художников, – поясняет пресс-секретарь компании Линда Замбони. – Наша бумажная продукция не содержит хлора, а используемые чернила только натурального происхождения. Что касается методов, то мы применяем традиционную итальянскую технику, благодаря которой бумага приятна на ощупь и идеальна для письма». Компания смогла успешно существовать на протяжении более чем 240 лет, сохраняя свои бесценные традиции. Конечно, не обошлось и без современных технологий. «Разумеется, новые методы и технологии повлияли на некоторые производственные
процессы, – говорит Замбони, – но окраска некоторых элементов в наших коллекциях до сих пор осуществляется мастерами вручную, как в старые добрые времена. То же относится и к картонным коробкам для хранения вещей, которые создаются вручную у нас в цехе». Широкий ассортимент продукции Pineider, включающий буквально все, от оригинальных визитных карточек до роскошной писчей бумаги с рельефными узорами и гербами, порой привлекал немало знаменитостей. Среди клиентов компании были Лорд Байрон и Элизабет Барретт Браунинг, а также голливудские звезды, от Марлен Дитрих до Элизабет Тейлор. «Самые изысканные покупатели отдают предпочтение нашей продукции, – говорит Замбони, – и мы чрезвычайно благодарны всем, кто ценит уникальное качество канцелярских принадлежностей, рожденных в Италии». На сегодняшний день в коллекции бренда представлен широкий ряд товаров: от изящной бумаги с ручной гравировкой до современных открыток и конвертов квадратной формы. Коллекция элегантных открыток и конвертов Capri отличается оригинальными рисунками и окаймлением, нанесенным вручную с использованием исключительно натуральных пигментов, и вдобавок имеет подкладку из папирусной бумаги. Компания не прекращает развиваться. Замбони делится очередной инновацией, державшейся до недавних пор в секрете: Pineider собирается запустить новейшую технологию нанесения изображений. По ее словам, это «позволит наносить вручную рельефный каллиграфический текст». В мире, где господствуют электронные системы коммуникации, отрадно видеть, что в Италии спрос на качественные письменные принадлежности не только не упал, но и вырос. Компании, которые прежде были нацелены лишь на представителей творческой элиты
118
и аристократов-путешественников, теперь стараются отвечать всем вызовам современного общества, не теряя при этом своего уникального шарма. Замбони поясняет: «Ручная гравировка возникла много веков назад, но время не стоит на месте, и появляется много новых техник. Лишь одно вечно останется неизменным – это точность и мастерство художникагравировщика». fabriano.com, ilpapirofrenze.it, pineider.com 66: Reinventing Romance

Valentino обрел второе дыхание – платья бренда сверкают на голливудских звездах, а в Риме открылся новый фирменный бутик, – рассказывает Харриет Куик Порой целые города ассоциируются с модными домами и сейчас для Valentino настал именно такой момент, когда бренд может заявить свои права на столицу
globalblue.com
Италии. В самом центре этого легендарного города, на протяжении многих веков восхищавшего дизайнеров, архитекторов и режиссеров, Valentino открыл свой новый флагманский магазин и штаб-квартиру. Расположился магазин рядом с дворцом 16 века Palazzo Mignanelli, на площади Piazza di Spagna (Площадь Испании), история которой уходит своими корнями в глубокое прошлое. В основании площади лежит знаменитая Испанская лестница и фонтан «Баркачча», созданный скульптором Пьетро Бернини и его сыном Джованни Лоренцо Бернини. В июле прошлого года дизайнеры Valentino Пьерпаоло Пиччоли и Мария Грация Кьюри отпраздновали успех совместного творчества и представили свою коллекцию на завораживающем шоу-показе. «Мы – новое поколение моды», – говорит Пиччоли. Кьюри вступила на свою должность в 2008 году и, как и Пиччоли, живет недалеко от Рима вместе со своей семьей. «Большое эго чуждо нашему поколению. Мне кажется, что мы больше думаем о женщинах и стиле: мы не хотим, чтобы нас считали знаменитостями, но нам нравится работать в сфере моды, создавать шоу, идеи, музыку, атмосферу и образы. Совместное творчество очень увлекательно. Наличие двух точек зрения делает видение более интересным и разносторонним. Несмотря на то, что все фейерверки уже отгремели и закончились модные показы, магазин, спроектированный студией David Chipperfeld Architects, обещает надолго привлечь внимание поклонников творчества Valentino. Помещение магазина занимает 1470 м.кв. и охватывает сразу три этажа. Интерьер бутика поражает своей монументальностью и изяществом: элементы отделки из дерева и кожи сочетаются с венецианской мозаикой, мраморными колоннами и точечным освещением. Отсутсвие пестрых деталей позволяет проявиться изысканной и романтичной философии современного Valentino. У мужчин теперь даже есть возможность приобрести джинсы по индивидуальному заказу.
119
Последние десять лет Пиччоли и Кьюри, прежде занимавшие руководящие должности в отделах аксессуаров, прилагают все усилия, чтобы омолодить бренд и переосмыслить то очарование и страсть, которые подарили Валентино Гаравани, покинувшему компанию в 2007 году, всемирную славу. В своем творчестве дизайнеры объединяют элементы ручной работы, современную практичность (в некоторых платьях даже есть карманы!) и безграничный полет фантазии. Все это можно увидеть в длинных, грациозных платьях из перьев, кружева и лоскутов, ставших уже своеобразной визитной карточкой; в металлических заклепках, сверкающих на вечерних туфлях; в кроссовках камуфляжной расцветки; в сумках с рельефными цветочными узорами (коллаборация с легендарным британским дизайнером Селией Биртуэлл); и, наконец, в принтах с порхающими бабочками из весенне-летней мужской коллекции. «Мы не знаем, что случится завтра, важно то, что мы создаем сегодня, – считает Кьюри. – Нам нужно мечтать, мечты – признак оптимизма, обещание перемен, и не важно какие сложности нас могут поджидать». Созданный Valentino образ находит поклонников по всему миру, и не только среди женщин, в чье число, кстати, входят такие знаменитости, как Кира Найтли, Алекса Чанг и Оливия Палермо. На показе коллекций прет-а-порте осеньзима 2015 в Париже Valentino затмил всех конкурентов, когда в финале на сцену в шелковых рубашках и джинсах вышли актеры Бен Стиллер и Оуэн Уилсон в образах Дерека Зуландера и Хэнсела из фильма «Образцовый самец». Капля юмора, разбавившая серьезный мир роскоши, возымела магический эффект на социальные сети (Instagram аккаунт Valentino насчитывает более трех миллионов подписчиков), откликнувшиеся на такой неожиданный анонс возвращения дуэта в сиквеле «Образцовый самец 2», релиз которого намечен на 2016 год. Съемка ряда
сцен к новому фильму проходила в ателье Valentino в Риме. Стратегическим управлением модного дома, выкупленного в 2012 году катарской компанией Mayhoola for Investments за 700 миллионов евро, занимается генеральный директор Стефано Сасси. Он не перестает нахваливать Кьюри и Пиччоли за их ясные идеи и мастерское сочетание делового и повседневного стиля. Рим переживает эпоху культурного возрождения: восходящие дизайнеры, такие как Марко де Винченцо и Стелла Джин, а также художники, такие как Габриэле де Сантис – звезда арт-выставки Frieze, завоевывают все больше поклонников, несмотря на экономический кризис. Это делает итальянскую столицу еще более привлекательной для посещения. А все, что вам нужно для того, чтобы окунуться в новый, романтический мир Valentino и его завораживающих коллекций – это немного фантазии valentino.com 74: Of The Beaten Track
По Нехоженым Дорожкам Салли МакИлхоун исследует необычные достопримечательности и гастрономические изыски римских кварталов Остиенсе и Тестаччо Учитывая популярность римских достопримечательностей, можно предположить, что в городе практически не осталось мест, где бы не ступала нога туриста. К счастью, это не совсем так. Ведь мало кто слышал о не столь известных районах, как Остиенсе и Тестаччо, которые, без сомнений, скоро станут знаменитыми. Упоминание о районе Остиенсе, расположенном на южных окраинах Рима, недавно появилось в издании New York Times. Произошло это после того, как сюда был направлен ряд крупных инвестиций, а также был открыт филиал легендарного итальянского рынка Eataly. Прогуливаясь по улочкам этого бывшего индустриального квартала столицы,

невозможно не заметить волну обновления, нахлынувшую на фабричные стены в виде ярких красок граффити. Среди местных достопримечательностей отчетливо выделяется конструкция Gasometro, предназначавшаяся ранее для хранения природного газа, а теперь именуемая «современным Колизеем». Чуть севернее, в окрестностях Тестаччо, можно набрести на Ex Mattatoio – бывшую скотобойню, где сейчас расположился музей современного искусства Macro. Поклонникам классического искусства непременно стоит посетить Капитолийский музей Centrale Montemartini в Остиенсе. Montemartini, в чьих стенах разместился музей, была первой в Риме тепловой электростанцией. В 1997 году помещение было отреставрировано и переделано в выставочный зал, где сейчас демонстрируются экспозиции трех музеев: Palazzo dei Conservatori, Museo Nouvo и Braccio Nuovo. Выставка «Машины и Боги», открытая в 1997 году, объединила в себе классические древнеримские скульптуры и старинные промышленные агрегаты. Ее ошеломительный успех помог заброшенным цехам навсегда стать неотъемлемой частью городского музейного комплекса. Музей Capitolini Centrale Montemartini стал значительной вехой в развитии района и globalblue.com
придании ему статуса нового культурного центра Рима. Помимо интересных художественных галерей в Остиенсе, представлен широкий выбор ресторанов, включая легендарный гастропаб Hopside, известный своей коллекцией итальянского пива. Директор Hopside Патриция де Титта объяснила причину открытия заведения в таком необычном месте желанием сделать вклад в возрождение района, популярность которого резко упала после закрытия местного оптового рынка в 1900-х годах. «Мотивацией для нашего решения послужили трудные и интересные условия работы, а также возможность принять непосредственное участие в развитии этой части Рима», – делится она. Кроме прекрасного выбора пива, Hopside предлагает шикарный ассортимент мясных и сырных деликатесов от итальянских производителей, а также бургеры и закуски в американском стиле. К северу и востоку от Остиенсе расположился район Тестаччо, сохранивший оригинальный римский шарм и давший начало знаменитой римской кухне. Знаток европейской кулинарии компания Eating Europe предлагает гостям города четырехчасовые дегустационные туры по окрестностям Тестаччо. «В программе тура предусмотрено девять остановок
121
и двенадцать дегустаций, при этом туристы смогут избежать больших толп и попробовать самую лучшую еду в Риме, – поясняет Мария Паскуале, PR-менеджер компании, – а в это время наши опытные гиды будут развлекать гостей и делиться интересными фактами из римской истории и культуры, показывая наиболее оригинальные достопримечательности столицы». Наряду с дегустацией пиццы, мороженого и трех видов местного спагетти (cacio e pepe, amatriciana и carbonara), тур включает в себя посещение рынка, где гости смогут попробовать свежеиспеченный бутерброд Bruschetta и трубочки с начинкой ricotta cannoli. Максимальная численность группы 12 человек, поэтому каждый участник вправе рассчитывать на индивидуальный подход в обслуживании. «Наши туры позволят вам увидеть Рим глазами итальянца, окунуться в атмосферу рабочего квартала Рима, где люди живут, едят и ходят по магазинам», – говорит Паскуале. Volpetti – еще один укромный уголок Рима, известный лишь среди местных жителей. Этот магазин деликатесов, открывшийся в 1973 году, всегда пользовался большой популярностью среди взыскательных работников местного рынка и скотобойни. «Они были настоящими экспертами кулинарии и уделяли особое внимание каждому ингредиенту для приготовления домашних блюд», – говорит Алессандро Вольпетти. Сегодня магазин остается важным местом закупок для местных жителей, а все мясные и сырные деликатесы продаются в вакуумной упаковке. «Тестаччо все еще напоминает небольшую деревню посреди большого города, – поясняет Вольпетти. – Помимо многочисленных следов римской истории, Тестаччо заслуженно считают одним из основных гастрономических центров Рима». Вдоволь насытившись итальянскими деликатесами, пора переходить к изучению независимых бутиков, представленных в Тестаччо. Один из них – Andrea 925, предлагающий впечатляющую коллекцию украшений из серебра. Здесь можно
встретить кольца в форме аудиокассеты или подковы, а также подвески в виде наушников или граммофона. Не важно, чем вы увлекаетесь, искусством, кулинарией, шоппингом или просто путешествиями по неизведанным местам, – полные прекрасного районы Остиенсе и Тестаччо несомненно подарят вам море впечатлений. museomacro.org, centralemontemartini.org, hopside.it, eatingitalyfoodtours.com, volpetti.com, andrea925.com 114: When You Shop The World, Shop Tax Free

54: Paper Trail 纸张的探索之路 意大利传统文具商顺势而变,既保留了时间赋予的 经典,又满足了现代人的需求,Verity Hogan报道 无论是萨伏伊公爵们(Dukes of Savoy)还是大旅 行(Grand Tour)时代的年轻贵族,在生活中追求 精品的人无不崇尚意大利的手工纸品。如今,意大利 的文具商依旧享誉全球。绝大多数手工纸选用最上 乘的传统原料,并采用十八世纪初传承至今几无改 变的工艺。意大利文具品种繁多,质量上乘,既有皮 面日记本、定制绸纹纸,还有名片和有盖储存盒等高 品质小配件。 欧洲已知最古老的纸质文档(与羊皮纸文档相 对)现存于巴勒莫(Palermo)的国家档案馆中。纸 上用阿拉伯语和希腊语记载了文字,其历史可以追 溯到1109年。但直到十三世纪,意大利的文具商们 才将古老的制纸工艺转化为重要的商品,意大利也 进而成为了世界闻名的造纸大国。 几乎没有哪些公司的历史传统比Fabriano还要 辉煌。Fabriano的历史可以追溯到1264年,公司的 名字源于所在地——马尔凯(Marche)的Fabriano 小镇。该地之所以能一举成为造纸中心,很大一部 分原因是因为靠近阿拉伯贸易的必经之地安科纳 (Ancona)港口。十五世纪,这里生产的画纸得到 米开朗琪罗的青睐,令他赞不绝口。小镇造纸坊当年 的先进工艺如今在造纸业已屡见不鲜,例如水印和 表层粘合剂的使用。 Fabriano从这些手工坊演变而来,顺势而变、 适应潮流,满足顾客不断变化的需求。产品种类不 仅仅拘泥于美术用品,还包括日常的办公用品、绘 图册以及精美绝伦的书写工具。如今,Fabriano还 致力于使用可再生能源,在生产中广泛使用自生的 水电力。 相比之下,Il Papiro的产品则坚守工艺传统,旗 下18家专卖店无不弥漫着传统的气息,彰显出公司 在佛罗伦萨的第一家专卖店的优雅气质。店内出售 独特精美的涡纹笔记本、皮制日记本以及令人心醉 的大理石纹手工纸。公司老板 Francesco Giannini 和Gianni Parenti出生于佛罗伦萨,与城市的工匠 群体保持密切联系,确保产品不失历史魅力,历久 而弥新。 Pineider是意大利最古老的造纸商之一。自 Francesco Pineider于1774年开设第一家专卖店以 来,Pineider 一直服务于高品位的顾客群体。 “我们 是一家独一无二、享誉全球的文具商,纸浆质量上 乘,采用手工雕刻大师的精致印刷工艺, ”Pineider的 globalblue.com
发言人 Linda Zamboni说道。 “我们生产的纸品都 是无氯的,使用全天然墨水,采用传统的意大利手工 工艺,触感极佳,书写流畅。”公司传承了创始之初的 传统生产工艺,并发展壮大240余年。不过,生产中 也融入了现代工艺。Zamboni 表示, “当然,现代工 艺和技术改变了一些生产流程,但是一些系列的饰 边上色还是由手工完成,和几百年前一模一样。我们 的纸盒同样也是在工坊里手工制作的。” 从定制的名片到饰有优雅浮雕文字和纹章的 书写纸,Pineider纷繁的产品吸引了一大批坚定 的簇拥者。曾经的顾客包括如雷贯耳的大文豪拜 伦勋爵(Lord Byron)和伊丽莎白·芭蕾特·布朗 宁(Elizabeth Barrett Browning),以及玛琳· 黛德丽(Marlene Dietrich)和伊丽莎白·泰勒 (Elizabeth Taylor)等好莱坞影星。Zamboni表 示: “我们的顾客品味十分高雅。我们忠心感谢那些 欣赏意大利制造文具独一无二品质的顾客。” 如今,公司经营的文具种类丰富,既包括为特殊 场合精心打造的产品——饰有手工雕刻手写字母的 纸张、饰以印刷彩边的时尚方形卡片和信封——也 有卡布里岛系列(Capri),即天然颜料手工饰边的 纸品和与之相配、衬有纸巾的信封。公司从未停止推 陈出新的脚步。Zamboni女士为我们披露此前不为 人知的消息:Pineider即将推出一项全新的雕刻技 术。她表示, “这项工艺能够运用手写文字手工雕刻 模型打造浮雕印刷效果。” 现代社会电子产品在沟通交流中的作用愈发举 足轻重,而振奋人心的是,意大利国内对高品质文具 的需求非但没有每况愈下,反而蒸蒸日上。那些曾经 为文学精英和贵族冒险家提供优等文具的公司在保 持优秀传统的同时,也为现代顾客推出了众多新的 产品。正如Zamboni所说的那样, “手工雕刻可以追 溯到数千年前,但毫无疑问,如今我们已经融入了 新的技术。即便如此,雕刻大师的手艺还是和以前 一样精湛。” fabriano.com, ilpapirofrenze.it, pineider.com

从邀请好莱坞明星参加走秀,到在罗马开设新旗舰 店,Valentino重获新生。Harriet Quick报道 有的时候,一整座城市只属于一个时装品牌;而在当 下,Valentino已成为了罗马的新主人。这是一座几百 年来让无数设计师、建筑家、电影工作者和创意者 们为之心醉神迷的传奇城市,而Valentino具有重大 意义的全新旗舰店及品牌设计总部就座落在罗马西 班牙广场(Piazza di Spagna),紧邻建于16世纪的 Palazzo Mignanelli。这座广场及其著名的西班牙 阶梯(Spanish Steps)充满了历史的沧桑感,而台阶 下方的破船喷泉(La Fontana della Barcaccia)则 出自雕刻名家彼得·贝尼尼(Pietro Bernini)和其 子济安·贝尼尼(Gian Lorenzo Bernini)之手。 去年七月,Valentino的两位创意总监Pierpaolo Piccioli与Maria Grazia Chiuri用一场梦幻派对庆 祝了他们的领导功绩,并在会上展示了品牌服装设 计系列。 “我们是时尚界的第二代人, ”Piccioli说。 他和Chiuri与各自的家人居住在罗马附近,两人于 2008年走马上任。 “那些庞大的自我意识是另一个 年代的东西。我认为我们这一代人更多地在思考女 性与风格:我们自己并无意成为名人,但我们热爱时 装的工作,热爱打造展出,热爱其中的信息、音乐、 空间和女孩们。携手致力于此是一件很令人陶醉的 事情。看待事物的两种角度也让我们眼前的美景更 加有趣,或许也更加复杂了。” 尽管那场派对的绚丽烟花和精彩走秀已经过 去了,但由建筑师David Chipperfeld操刀设计 的这间门店则继续绽放迷人魅力。旗舰店共三层 楼,1470平方米的空间以灰色威尼斯水磨石、木材 和皮革装点,店内饰有磨光立柱和令人赞叹的水珠 状灯饰,彰显了非凡风度与极致优雅的完美结合。 空阔的环境让现代Valentino品牌冷酷而浪漫的特 质发挥得淋漓尽致。男士顾客甚至可以在此购买定 制牛仔裤。 在过去十年中,原为品牌配饰系列总监 的Piccioli和Chiuri不断致力于让Valentino 焕发新的活力,重新诠释让创始人Valentino Garavani(2007年退休)之名响彻时尚界的魅力 与热情。 他们选择的道路,是在手工技艺、现代穿着性 能(有些连衣裙甚至配有口袋!)和天马行空的梦幻 态度之中寻求微妙的平衡。品牌引以为标志的诗意 长羽毛、饰带和拼缀连衣裙,点缀在畅销款高跟鞋 上的金属铆钉,酷味十足的迷彩运动鞋和3D刺绣花 卉手包(与印花传奇Celia Birtwell联手打造),以 及飞扬在春夏季男装单品上的蝴蝶图案,无不体现
了这一风格。 “我们不知道明天会发生什么,但对现在而言, 重要的是创造一种风格, ”Chiuri说。 “我们需要梦 想——梦想展现出乐观,展现出改变的希望,不论 那改变有多困难。” 这样的想象正在赢得全世界粉丝的关注;不 仅是女性——在Valentino的众多著名簇拥者中, 就有凯拉·奈特利(Keira Knightley)、艾里珊· 钟(Alexa Chung)和奥莉维亚·巴勒莫(Olivia Palermo)——男性也一样。在巴黎时装周2015年 秋冬季成衣秀场中,演员本·斯蒂勒(Ben Stiller) 和欧文·威尔逊(Owen Wilson)扮演着他们在《 超级名模》(Zoolander)中的角色祖兰德(Derek Zoolander)和汉斯(Hansel),身着蓝色丝绸和牛 仔布压轴登场,让Valentino出尽风头。事实证明, 将诙谐趣味注入严肃的奢侈品世界这一创举是极具 感染力的。这个经典的瞬间在社交网络上形成了密 集的弹幕(Valentino在Instagram 上拥有超过300 万名关注者),同时也闪耀地宣告了威尔逊与斯蒂勒 将回归将于2016年初上映的《超级名模2》。这部影 片中的不少场景正是在Valentino罗马工作室内取 景拍摄。 幕后,在新东家Mayhoola for Investments 的授意下,首席执行官Stefano Sassi正着手为 Valentino打造一个生机蓬勃的未来。2012年,卡 塔尔投资基金Mayhoola for Investments以7亿 欧元的高价收购Valentino。Sassi赞扬了Chiuri和 Piccioli的明晰远见及其“非正式与正式”两种风格 的巧妙融合。 罗马正在经历一次文化复兴,Marco de Vincenzo和Stella Jean等设计师,以及像Frieze画 廊之星Gabriele de Santis这样的画家,都在经济 困难时期的大漩涡之中冉冉升起。这也让罗马古城 散发出更多迷人的魅力,吸引着各地游客。您只需 拿出一点点时间来做一场白日里的美梦,即可沉浸 到Valentino的全新世界中,体验设计杰作的奇妙 魔力。 valentino.com

Volpetti 表示: “他们是真正的美食专家,因为他们 的职责就是为餐桌寻找可靠的原材料。”如今,该店 仍为当地人的餐桌源源不断地输送食材,并为游客 提供真空包装的风味肉类和奶酪。 “Testaccio依旧 像一座大城市里的小村庄, ”Volpetti解释说, “穿越 罗马历史的重重遗迹,您来到Testaccio,这里也被 公认为罗马的美食中心之一。” 大快朵颐之后,您一定要去看看Testaccio区鳞 次栉比的独立精品店。Andrea 925是其中的一大 亮点。店内银饰琳琅满目,磁带和幸运马蹄铁形状 的戒指,耳机和录音机形状的坠饰令人爱不释手, 任您选购。 无论您是艺术爱好者、美食家,是喜欢探索时尚 精品店,或是仅仅想一窥真实的罗马生活,Ostiense 区和Testaccio区一定值得您一探究竟,为您带来意 外的惊喜。 museomacro.org, centralemontemartini.org, hopside.it, eatingitalyfoodtours.com, volpetti.com, andrea925.com

イタリアの伝統的文房具メーカーは、長年愛されて きた魅力を失うことなく進化を遂げ、現代の需要に 応えている。ヴェリティ・ホーガンが訪ねた。 歴代サヴォイ公からグランドツアーでイタリアを訪 れた若き貴族まで、上質を知る目の肥えた人々は昔 から、イタリアの手作り紙を珍重してきた。この国の 文房具は今でも高い評判を誇っている。その多くは 伝統的な材料を用いて、18 世紀初頭からほとんど 変わらない技法で作られる。革表紙の日記帳から パーソナライズされた型押し入り便箋、蓋つきの収 納ボックスまで幅広く揃った商品は、どれも最高の 品質だ。ヨーロッパ最古といわれる紙製(羊皮紙で なく)の文書は、パレルモの公文書館に収蔵されて いる。アラビア語とギリシャ語で書かれたその文書 は、1109年に書かれたものだ。しかし、イタリアの文 房具メーカーが古代の製紙手法を取り入れて紙を 主力商品へと変貌させ、紙生産で世に知られるよう になったのは13世紀になってからというのが通説で ある。 由緒正しいといえば、1264 年創業のファブリア ーノの右に出るメーカーはおそらくないだろう。同社 の社名は、本拠とするマルケ州にある小さな町ファ
126
ブリアーノに由来する。この町が製紙業の中心地と して栄えたのは、アラビアとの貿易ルートに特に強 いつながりを持つ港町アンコーナが近いことが大き な理由だ。15世紀には、ここで作られた高級アート 紙をミケランジェロが使い、大そう気に入ったといわ れている。この町の工房では、透かしやゼラチンを 使った紙表面の糊付けなど、現代製紙業界では当た り前になった技法が編み出された。 ファブリアーノ社はそうした職人の工房から発 展した会社だが、流行に反応し消費者の需要の変 化に合わせてきた順応力のおかげで、今も健在だ。 品揃えは高級アート紙だけでなく、今や日常的なオ フィス用品や画用紙帳、美しく陳列された便箋セッ トまで幅広い。現在、同社では再生可能エネルギー にも取り組んでおり、自家水力発電を生産に広く利 用している。 一方、イル・パピロの品揃えは伝統的な職人技 に根差し、同社の18 店舗はいずれも、フィレンツェ に出した第一号店の優雅な雰囲気を反映した古風 なデザインになっている。商品はペイズリープリント のノートや革綴じの日記帳、美しい手作りのマーブ ル紙など。同社オーナーのフランチェスコ・ジャンニ ーニとジャンニ・パレンティはフィレンツェ生まれで、 この都市の職人コミュニティとは密接なつながりが ある。そのおかげで、同社の製品は今でも昔からの 魅力を保ち、一時的な流行に左右されない時代を 超えた品質を誇っているのだ。 ピネイダーはイタリア最古の紙メーカーの一つ で、フランチェスコ・ピネイダーが1774年に一号店を オープンして以来、その歴史にふさわしい目の肥え た得意客に商品を提供してきた。 「当社の文房具は 独特で、比類ない紙質と当社の熟練手彫り職人なら ではの印刷技術で世界的に知られています」と説明 するのは、同社広報担当者のリンダ・ザンボーニだ。 「当社の紙は全て無塩素漂白紙で、インクも天然で す。また、伝統的なイタリアの職人技が活きている ため、手触りがよく、書き心地も満点です。」 ピネイダーは 240 年以上も生き残り、繁栄して きた。それは、最初に財を築いた時と同じように、 伝統的な生産手法を守り通してきたからだ。と言っ ても、近代的な技法を取り入れていないわけではな い。ザンボーニいわく、 「もちろん、新しい技法や技 術によって変わった工程もありますが、当社のコレ クションの一部にある罫線の色付けは昔ながらの 手作業ですし、紙箱も同様で自社で手作りしていま す。」 誂えの名刺からエレガントな型押し文字や紋章 の入った便箋まで、ピネイダーは幅広い品揃えで昔 から熱烈なファンが多い。過去の愛好者にはバイロ ン卿、エリザベス・バレット・ブラウニングといった文 globalblue.com
学界の大物や、マレーネ・ディートリッヒ、エリザベ ス・テイラーといったハリウッドスターもいる。 「今も 世界一流の粋人にご愛顧いただいています。当社の イタリア製文房具ならではの品質をわかって下さる 皆様に、本当に感謝しています。」 現在、同社では特別な用途のために美しく手作 りした品(筆記体の文字を手彫りし型押しした紙、 色罫を印刷したモダンな四角形のカードや封筒)か ら、天然顔料で罫線を手書きした便箋と揃いの手 作り薄葉紙の裏地が付いた封筒が特徴のカプリコ レクションまで、幅広い商品を提供している。ピネイ ダーは常に進化している。ザンボーニがこれまで秘 密だった新情報を教えてくれた。同社が新しい型押 し技法をまもなく開始するというのだ。 「カリグラフ ィーを手彫りした型で、エンボス印刷したのと同じ 効果がある」という。 通信が電子媒体で行われることが増えている 中で、イタリアの高品質文房具の需要が減るどころ か増えているのは嬉しい限りだ。かつて文豪や貴族 冒険家の愛用品を作ったこれらの会社は、それぞれ ルーツを大事にしつつ開発に励み、現代人にとって も魅力的な商品を生み出してきた。ザンボーニによ れば、 「手彫り型押しの歴史は何世紀も前に遡りま すが、もちろん今では新しい技術が関わってきてい ます。それでも、熟練手彫り職人の精密さは昔と変 わりません。」 fabriano.com、ilpapirofirenze.it、pineider.com

ルコレクションを披露した。ピッチョーリは「僕らは ファッションの第二世代」だという。2008 年に就任 した二人は共に、それぞれの家族とローマ近郊に住 む。 「強烈な自己主張は昔の話。今の世代は、女性 とスタイルについてもっと深く考えるんじゃないかな と思います。自分たちが有名人になりたいとは思い ません。ただファッションの仕事を愛し、ショーを 創造することが好きなんです。メッセージ、音楽、空 間、女性たち、…その全てがね。そして、それを二人 で一緒にできるというのが素晴らしい。二つの観点 を持つから、僕らのビジョンは魅力的で、おそらくも っと陰影のあるものになるんだと思います。」 あのパーティの華々しい花火やキャットウォー クショーは一時的なものだが、建築家デヴィッド・チ ッパーフィールドがデザインした旗艦店はきっと長く 人々を魅了し続けるだろう。三階建て、総面積1,470 ㎡の店内は、グレーのベネチアンテラゾに木材、皮 を使い、磨き上げた柱や印象的な滴型の吊り照明 が醸し出す雰囲気は、強烈な存在感と品位のえもい われぬ組み合わせが見事だ。無駄を削ぎ落とした 環境だからこそ、現代ヴァレンティノブランドのクー ルでロマンチックな本質が映える。同店のメンズコ ーナーでは、ジーンズの誂えもできる。 かつては同ブランドのアクセサリー部門を仕切 っていたピッチョーリとキウリは、この10 年でヴァレ ンティノを若返らせた。2007年に引退した創業者の ヴァレンティノ・ガラヴァーニを知らぬ者のないほど 有名にした魅惑と情熱を、新たに解釈し直してみせ たのだ。
二人が選んだ道は、職人の技巧、現代人にとっ ての着やすさ(ドレスにポケットをつけることも!) 、夢のようなさりげなさの微妙なバランス。それは、 このコンビのトレードマークともなった羽根やレー ス、パッチワークを配したロマンチックなロングドレ スや、ベストセラーのスタッド付きパンプス、粋な迷 彩柄スニーカー、立体的な花の刺繍を施したハンド バッグ(プリントで有名なテキスタイルデザイナー、 セリア・バートウェルとのコラボレーション作品)、春 夏のメンズで登場した蝶のプリントと、随所に見ら れる。 「明日は何が起こるかわからない。だから、今 のスタイルを創ることが大事」だとキウリはいう。 「そ れと夢が必要です。夢は楽観であり、変化の約束で す。変わる過程がいかに難しくてもね。」 このイメージが世界中でファンを獲 得してい る。女性ファン(キーラ・ナイトレイ、アレクサ・チャ ン、オリヴィア・パレルモなど、ヴァレンティノの愛好 者は数多い)はもちろん、男性もひきつけているの だ。パリの2015 年秋冬コレクションでは、ヴァレン ティノのショーのフィナーレに「ズーランダー」のデレ ク・ズーランダーとハンセルに扮した俳優のベン・ス ティラーとオーウェン・ウィルソンが登場し、青色の シルクとデニムをまとってキャットウォークを闊歩し た。高級ファッションの真剣な世界にウィットを持ち 込んだこの仕掛けは瞬く間に話題に。ソーシャルメ ディアを席巻し(ヴァレンティノのインスタグラムフォ ロワーは300万人を超えている)、同時にウィルソン とスティラーの新作「ズーランダー2」 (2016 年初頭 公開予定)の巧みな宣伝になった。この映画では、 ローマにあるヴァレンティノのアトリエで撮影したシ ーンも見られる。 一方、舞台裏では同社 CEOのステファノ・サッ シが、新オーナー(カタールを本拠とする投資ファ ンドのメイフーラ・フォー・インベストメント、2012 年に推定7億ユーロでヴァレンティノを取得)のもと に、ブランドの今後の飛躍に向けて動いている。サ ッシは、キウリとピッチョーリのビジョンの明確さと、 「インフォーマルとフォーマル」を巧みにミックスさせ る手腕を称えている。 ローマでは、厳しい経済環境のなかでマルコ・ デ・ヴィンチェンツォ、ステラ・ジーンといった新進デ ザイナーや、ロンドンのフリーズ・アートフェアで一躍 有名になったガブリエレ・デ・サンティスなどのアー ティストが台頭して、文化ルネッサンスが起こりつつ あり、訪れる者にとってますますエキサイティングな 都市になっている。新たな「ヴァレンティノワールド」 に身を浸し、そのデザインの魔法に触れるには、ほ んの少し夢見る時間があればいい。 valentino.com

74: Of The Beaten Track 寄り道のススメ ローマのオスティエンセ地区とテスタッチョ地区に は、見慣れない風景や独特の味が一杯だ。サリー・ マキルホーンが探検した。 ローマのように人気が高く観光名所も写真でお馴 染みの都市は、隠れた見どころなどもう無いだろうと いう印象を持たれても無理はない。嬉しいことに、こ の都市の中でもあまり知られていない二つの地区、 オスティエンセとテスタッチョはお決まりの観光ルー トにはまだ入っていない。訪れるなら今がチャンス だ。 ローマの南部にあるオスティエンセは、地区再 開発への投資が行われ、世界最大のイタリアグルメ のデパート「イータリー(Eataly)」が支店を出した ことから、最近ニューヨーク・タイムズ紙で取り上げ られた。元々は工業の中心地であったこの地区を歩 くと、明るい色彩のストリートアートで新しい息吹を 吹き込まれた古い工場があちこちにある。また、地 globalblue.com
元で「近代のコロッセオ」とあだ名されるガゾメトロ (ガスタンク)など、この地区の昔をしのばせるラン ドマークも。一方、北へ少し歩いたところにあるテス タッチョ地区には、元マッタトイオ(屠殺場)が現在 はMACRO(ローマ現代美術館)になっている。こ れらの地区を徒歩で見て回るのは、ちょっと変わっ たアーバン・サファリ探検のようで、誰もがたどるル ートを離れてブラブラするのにお誂え向きだ。 古典美術が好みなら、オスティエンセのモンテ マルティーニ美術館は外せない。かつてはジョヴァ ンニ・モンテマルティーニ熱電センターというローマ 初の公営発電所だった建物が、1997年に改造され てユニークな展示場になり、コンセルヴァトーリ美 術館、ムゼオ・ヌオーヴォ(新美術館)、ブラッチョ・ ヌオーヴォ(新回廊)が所蔵する彫刻の展示に使わ れた。1997年の「マシーン&ゴッド」展では古典的 な石像とアンティークの機械を並置して観る者の度 肝を抜き、それが大評判を博したおかげで市営美 術館の仲間入りをした。この美術館も、この地区が ローマの新しい文化の中心地へと変貌するのに一役 買ったランドマークの一つだ。

オスティエンセで評判なのはアートギャラリーだ けではなく、食事処もバラエティに富んでいる。賞を 受賞したガストロパブの「ホップサイド」もその一つ で、木張りの店内ではイタリアの地ビールが楽しめ る。ホップサイドの総支配人パトリツィア・デ・ティッ タいわく、同社は1990 年代にローマの卸売市場が 閉場してから衰退していたオスティエンセの再生に 貢献したいと考えたのだという。 「オスティエンセに 開店することを決めたのは、刺激的な環境に囲まれ ていたいという気持ちと、この地区の再開発を引っ 張りたいという気持ちからでした。」ホップサイドで はビールの他に、うるわしきイタリアの肉料理やチー ズがメニューに並び、バーガーなどアメリカ風の食 べ物もある。 オスティエンセのすぐ北東に位置するテスタッチ ョ地区は、ローマの食い倒れの元祖で、 「クチーナ・ ロマーナ(ローマ料理)」の発祥の地だ。フードツ アーを企画提供す4るイーティング・ヨーロッパ社で は、この地区を巡る時間の「テイスト・オブ・テスタッ チョ」ウォーキングツアーを実施している。 「このツ アーはまさしく地元の食品店9軒を巡って12 種の食 品を試食していただくのが目玉で、お客様には人混 みを離れてローマ随一の美味をお楽しみいただけま す」と、同社のPR・ソーシャルメディアマネジャーの マリア・パスクワーレはいう。 「その道すがら、当社 の経験豊かなガイドが、ローマの隠れたランドマー クにご案内しながらローマの文化や歴史について解 説し、ストーリーを語って、楽しくてためになる体験 をお届けします。」 ピザやジェラート、地元のパスタ3 種(カチオ・ エ・ペペ、アマトリチャーナ、カルボナーラ)の他、 地元の市場で新鮮なブルスケッタやリコッタ・カノー リの試食もできる。各ツアーの催行人数は12 名まで で、パーソナルなサービスが受けられること請け合 いだ。 「当社のツアーでは、世界一流の都市ローマ の人々が暮らし、食べ、買い物する地区を、地元民 感覚で体験していただけます」と、パスクワーレ。 ローマ市民の暮らしが垣間見えるもう一つの場 所がヴォルペッティだ。このデリカテッセン兼専門 食材店は1973年の創業で、以前は地元の市場や屠 殺場で働く食の目利きが得意客だった。 「彼らは本 物の食のエキスパートでね、家で作る料理にぴった りの食材をいつも探してたよ」というのはアレッサン ドロ・ヴォルペッティ。この店は今でも地元民に欠か せない食材店だが、観光客用に特選の食肉やチー ズを真空パックしてくれる。 「テスタッチョは大都市 にありながら、相変わらず小さな村みたいなんだ」と ヴォルペッティはいう。 「ここにはローマの歴史を思 い起こさせるものがたくさんあるけど、 『ローマの台 所』の一つでもあるんだよ。」
とびきりの食材をあれこれ仕入れたら、テスタ ッチョにある様々な独立系店舗もチェックしたい。 中でもお奨めはアンドレア925で、カセットテープ型 のリングや幸運を呼ぶ馬蹄型のリング、ヘッドフォン やレコードプレーヤーの形をしたペンダントなど、一 味違うシルバージュエリーを置いている。 アート愛好家もグルメも、新しいブティックを探 すのが好きな人も、ただ単にローマ市民の暮らしぶ りを見てみたいという人も、オスティエンセとテスタッ チョは訪ねてみる価値大ありだ。 museomacro.org、 centralemontemartini.org、 hopside.it、eatingitalyfoodtours.com、 volpetti.com、andrea925.com
