Darren Hopes The cover illustration for SHOP Rome, created

by Darren Hopes, was inspired by our feature on page 46 about the designers looking under the sea for inspiration this season, drawing on fsh, shell and coral motifs. His use of ethereal textures and exquisite detail in this underwater scene refects the feature perfectly.

Darren enjoys working with mixed media to create visually stunning art; his other clients include GQ magazine, Sony PlayStation and Penguin Books.

SUBTLE SCENTS The launch of Prada’s Olfactories fragrances has been almost silent; even the bottles are discreet. Perhaps this is because these 10 scents speak for themselves. The fragrances ‘disregard tradition’ and are intended to ‘trigger the subconscious mind.’ Each is characterised by a graphic image of a woman’s face and a flower – the images are stills from the 10 short videos produced for the perfumes’ launch. The fragrances include Purple Rain, Cargo de Nuit and Tainted Love. rd Prada, Via dei Condotti 88-90, 00187 Rome, +39 06 679 0897, prada.com FOR M A P GO TO PAGE 86

Arthur Arbesser’s debut as womenswear creative director of Iceberg was inspired by the playfulness and colours of Italian artist Enrico Baj, which he combined with the label’s intrinsic sports-luxe aesthetic. The resulting bold stripes and sharp graphics are for women who want to make a statement. One of the standout looks was this collared shift dress (€480), teamed here with a metallic handbag. The lace-up detail and vertical stripes make this a thoroughly modern choice. Arbesser has also visited the brand’s 40-year archive and focused on a key Iceberg product: knitwear. The resulting collection is therefore particularly strong on knits – which works, despite this being the spring/summer season. th Iceberg, Via del Babuino 87-88, 00187 Rome, +39 06 3260 0221, iceberg.com FOR M A P GO TO PAGE 82

SADDLE UP Spring/summer 2016 sees the launch of the Saddle bag from American label Coach. A reworking of two pieces from the Coach archives, Bonnie Cashin’s 1972 courier pouch and the 1975 small courier pouch, the bold, classic Saddle (€450) is a simple yet standout piece. The updated design, formed from a single piece of leather, demonstrates Coach’s expertise in leatherwork; the brand launched in 1941 as a leather accessories specialist. The bags are available in two sizes and a range of colours, from neutrals to paintbox brights, and each is finished with subtle but stylish contrast stitching. rd Coin Excelsior, Via Cola di Rienzo 173, 00192 Rome, +39 06 3600 4298, coach.com FOR M A P GO TO PAGE 95

Floriental (€95) is the newest scent that Comme des Garçons has added to its prospering fragrance repertoire. Redefining the rules of perfumery, the Japanese brand founded by Rei Kawakubo has blurred the boundaries between floral and oriental, creating something completely new. This contemporary fragrance, which is, ironically, based around the cistus, a flower with no smell, has no definite top, middle or base note, so each ingredient emerges and recedes in an opulent confusion. Key ingredients include sandalwood, labdanum resin, vetiver, pink pepper and plum liqueur. Floriental eau de parfum is presented in a shiny red version of Comme des Garçons’ signature pebbleshaped bottle. rd Degli Effetti, Piazza Capranica 79, 00186 Rome, +39 06 679 1650, comme-des-garconsparfum.com FOR M A P GO TO PAGE 94

Hand-crafted on Victorian machinery, these limited-edition suitcases are made in Globe-trotter’s unique fibreboard material and lined with fine space-dyed Peruvian cotton woven on Missoni’s heritage looms in Sumirago, Italy. Prices start at €1,600.

Best known for colourful, exuberant knitwear, Missoni is a family business that champions Italian design all over the world. th Missoni, Piazza di Spagna 78, 00187 Rome, +39 06 679 2555, missoni.com FOR M A P GO TO PAGE 84

QUALITY TIME The use of blue leather for the strap of the Eliros Chronographe (€695) makes this timepiece particularly striking and unusual. It was created by luxury Swiss watchmaker Maurice Lacroix and, while the design is thoroughly contemporary and the watch features the latest technology, it remains true to the longstanding, exacting standards of Swiss watchmaking. The Eliros range particularly stands out for its simple, uncluttered legibility, which makes for a practical as well as a very handsome watch. rd Alfio Saccoccio Orologeria, Via Flavio Stilicone 258-260, 00175 Rome, +39 06 7158 2989, mauricelacroix.com Save up to 15.5% by shopping tax free, see page 98

It is also popular with a much wider audience for its good-quality designerinspired basics, which reflect characteristically understated Scandinavian style – especially noteworthy are women’s dresses, skirts and blouses, and

IN THE SWIM La Perla is among the world’s favourite brands of lingerie, swimwear and beachwear. Founded in 1954 in Bologna, Italy, by corset-maker Ada Masotti, the superluxurious Italian brand is a long-time market leader.

TRUE TO NATURE The beautiful muted tones of natural fibres inspired Italian knitwear expert Falconeri to create a spring/summer collection that is feminine and timeless.

Teamed with skinny jeans and flats, this is off-duty-model style at its finest. Every step of Falconieri’s production, from initial sketches to packaging, takes place in the company’s own factory in Avio, Italy.

THE NEW NAUTICAL Italy’s designers are looking beneath the waves this season and offering fresh, intriguing takes on the theme of the sea.

here was a hotly anticipated debut at Emilio Pucci this season, as young designer Massimo Giorgetti presented his frst collection for the famous Italian fashion house. Anyone who was worried he would struggle to fll the boots of his predecessor Peter Dundas had their fears put to rest. A confdent and accomplished collection hit the catwalk, boldly coloured and flled with youthful, experimental touches, the signature style for which Giorgetti won acclaim at MSGM. One concept in particular turned heads in this collection, and that was Giorgetti’s unabashed embrace of all things sea-themed.

The Emilio Pucci label was founded on the island of Capri, and perhaps it was this that inspired the new designer to look underwater for his inspiration. Colourful fishes swam across garments, realised in cartoon-bright embroidery or painterly prints, and loose tailoring was invigorated with vivid underwater scenes.

In Giorgetti’s hands, the natural colours of underwater life were exaggerated and became

kaleidoscopic, transforming simple pieces into statements as tropical fish, sea turtles and crabs clung to cocktail dresses. Giorgetti’s most fantastical motif told a magical underwater love story, with mermaids and sailors appearing alongside ropes, shells and sea creatures.

Elsewhere the aesthetic was more subtle but just as effective; sheer sweaters were adorned with shells, layered over billowing white trousers or worn atop blue and white printed jersey, cleverly creating the illusion of rippling waves.

As this Pucci collection proves, a new take on nautical is emerging. Gone is the classic yet predictable yacht-friendly wardrobe and in its place is a fresher, more surprising approach to the trend, inspired not only by life at sea but Above: two looks from Emilio Pucci spring/summer 2016

also by life under the waves. Italy is famous for its beautiful coasts with their plentiful wildlife, and, as the summer season arrives, the nation’s designers are celebrating this heritage, creating luxurious, uplifting pieces that pay homage to the great Italian seaboard and its part in shaping Italian culture.

Fausto Puglisi, a relative newcomer to the Milan roster, is known for his intricate embroideries. Like Giorgetti, Puglisi looked to the sea for his central motif this season; 3D shells in shades of coral, pink, gold and bronze clustered together on skirts, crop tops and bodices, peppered the hems of outerwear and peeked out from Grecian-style draped silk, a flash of pattern and colour in otherwise colourblocked looks.

Here was a decidedly elegant, grown-up telling of the nautical story, the shells standing out against black cocktail dresses, nestled among Puglisi’s expert embroideries, which glistened in gold and silver. Gold and glass beading stood out like spikes from bodices and across gladiator-style skirts, among which the

shells appeared like jewels, a luxurious scatter of underwater treasure.

At Dolce & Gabbana, every collection reads like a love letter to Italy. It’s hardly surprising, then, that sea themes made an appearance as design duo Stefano Gabbana and Domenico Dolce looked to their nation as seen by visitors.

Dresses featured cartoon-style motifs depicting beaches and seaside activities, or bold photo prints of Italy’s picturesque coastal regions, and a sharp black tuxedo was embellished with jewelled crabs and starfish. Seaside life is vibrant and filled with colour, providing exciting and beautiful points of reference.

But sea-inspired style isn’t all about bold motifs and extravagant colour schemes. Max Mara presented one of the strongest collections of the season. While wholly different from those of Pucci or Puglisi, it too presented an unforgettable and eminently wearable vision of nautical fashion. Horizontal stripes, the classic combination of red, white and navy, oversized gold buttons – this might sound literal, even familiar, but in the hands of creative director Ian Griffiths it was anything but.

Straying from the traditional colour palette, Max Mara mixed in blacks and yellows, cleverly avoiding any sense of costume. The brand’s signature soft tailoring was played out in Riviera-inspired prints and classic nautical details. Breton striped tees, glimpsed under simple jackets whose epaulettes and gold hardware gave just a hint of the naval, offered a subtle take on the trend, but elsewhere the theme emerged boldly. A fringed, striped and sparkling pencil skirt was paired with a lighthouse motif T-shirt. Many looks were realised head-to-toe in red, white and blue, with striped summer jackets layered over yet more stripes, and loose pants adorned with rope prints. Max Mara is famous for understated elegance, and here the simplest pieces and silhouettes gained new life through the clever, modern interpretation of a traditional theme.

Take tips from the Italians this season and inject your wardrobe with a dose of the nautical. Whether you’re inspired by Max Mara’s vision of life on the decks or Pucci’s underwater fantasy, nothing says summer like a nod to the seaside

BULGARI WATCHES Fine jewellery brand Bulgari is shaking up the world of haute horology, says Stephen Doig

senior director of the house’s watch design centre. ‘I imagine the pieces in a line-up, as products that could fit very well in our already established assortment of watches, at the right moment and the right price.’

It’s an ethos that respects Bulgari’s rich heritage yet allows for innovation and fresh ideas. This chapter in the company’s storied legacy only opened just under 40 years ago, in

he stately cream façade of Bulgari’s flagship store on Rome’s prestigious Via dei Condotti sits alongside equally eminent heritage brands; neighbours include Dior, Hermès and Cartier. Bulgari, however, is woven into the fabric of this charming part of Rome, close to the wellknown Spanish Steps, like no other brand. It’s this store that a young Elizabeth Taylor visited during a break from filming Cleopatra in 1963, sparking her life-long romance with fine jewellery – and with Bulgari in particular.

Alongside its fantastical gemstones, seductive Serpenti bracelets and opulent Bzero1 rings, Bulgari has also carved out a niche in the world of watches, creating era-defining, impeccable timepieces that push the boundaries of horology, with each year proving more exciting than the last.

‘When I imagine new products, I have to imagine something that works with Bulgari’s roots. It has to be about the evolution of Bulgari,’ says Fabrizio Buonamassa Stigliani,

A thread of daring innovation runs through many Bulgari offerings

1977. This makes Bulgari a relative newcomer to the haute horology world, where centuries of craft and expertise lend weight to the great Swiss names that dominate and where upstarts are viewed with a critical eye. But Bulgari’s secret was to invest in a Swiss production facility, in Neuchâtel near Geneva, and ensure that all of its movements and complications were made in keeping with Swiss watchmaking tradition. Its distinctive Italian flair and showmanship were thus blended carefully and seamlessly into the precise standards of Swiss watchmaking.

Ever since Sotirio Voulgaris founded Bulgari in 1884, launching a jewellery emporium which would go on to dominate the world of luxury, this Italian exuberance has been firmly embedded in the DNA of the house. But far from being pressured by the weight of Bulgari’s legacy, the house’s prestige actually allows Stigliani the freedom to make his own decisions. ‘Good design is about constraint and those constraints drive the aesthetic,’ he says. ‘I might be inspired by a beautiful engine or even by the Colosseum in

Rome, but sometimes you cannot use those shapes to make a watch. So the inspiration has to be appropriate and it has to make sense.’

Make sense it does, if models such as the now iconic Octo, Diva and Serpenti watches are anything to go by. The latter was the brand’s first foray into horology, a jewelled watch first created in the 1940s that reflected the winding design of the house’s Serpenti jewellery. This predated Bulgari’s undertaking of horology as a serious enterprise, which could be said to have started with the Bulgari Bulgari.

The model made its debut in 1977 and is particularly notable for the elongated font on the dial and a discreet classicism; it remains the house’s best seller.

And while an inherently traditional aesthetic has long been the calling card of Bulgari’s timepieces, a thread of daring innovation has also run through its offerings. The brand bought the Daniel Roth watch company in 2000. Daniel Roth, the eponymous watchmaker, is known for his complicated watches and fantastical tourbillons, and for Bulgari he has created dazzling timepieces with skeleton faces so that the exceptional inner workings are on dazzling display.

The sense of horological exploration continues this year with experimentation in the realm of smartwatches. The Bulgari Diagono Magnesium concept watch, unveiled in spring 2015, is fitted with a near field communication chip which allows it to link with portable devices

A sense of horological exploration continues as Bulgari turns to smartwatches carrying the Bulgari Vault app, meaning activities generally carried out using a smartphone can be achieved through the watch instead. While the Diagono Magnesium is still under development at the moment, the inside word in watch circles is that it will arrive in 2016.

Alongside Bulgari’s exacting and impeccable craftsmanship and design, pioneering 21stcentury technology that Sotirio Voulgaris could never have envisioned when he launched the brand might soon come as standard

rom Hollywood superstars to European aristocrats, the world’s most stylish men know that Rome is the place to find the finest bespoke tailors. Home to luxury international labels and traditional family-run sartorias, the Italian capital boasts an impressive range of tailoring options that will satisfy even the most discerning clients.

One of the city’s leading forces in modern bespoke menswear is Andrea Luparelli, whose tailoring house, Sartoria Ripense, has cultivated a long list of international customers, some of whom fly to Rome specifically for his expertise in made-to-measure menswear.

Following in his tailor grandfather’s footsteps and driven by an inherited passion and a love of traditional Italian tailoring, Luparelli opened Sartoria Ripense 16 years ago on the Via di Ripetta, a short walk from the historical Piazza del Popolo. Luparelli describes Sartoria Ripense as a laboratory as much as a tailor’s shop. His focus when creating a suit is ‘taking into consideration the proportions and personal shape of each client to work to create

the perfect fit,’ he explains. ‘Everything starts in front of a mirror, with the client and the professionals, the tailors and consultant, supporting and guiding the choices with their experience.’

It’s during this consultation stage that Luparelli’s clients discover the sartoria’s vast library of fabrics, finishes and accessories. The Sartoria Ripense ‘laboratory’ experiments result in an entirely bespoke wardrobe, from suits to scarves and everything in between.

‘Even a belt buckle can be customised,’ says Luparelli.

It’s clear that Luparelli’s mission is to keep traditional Italian tailoring within the modern menswear wardrobe. However, Sartoria Ripense is not the only tailor to attract some of the world’s sharpest-dressed men to Rome.

Luxury labels with boutiques across the globe have based their best bespoke services in the city – including Italian menswear powerhouse Canali. Founded as a family-run business in 1934, Canali has become one of the most renowned Italian labels for beautiful suits and formalwear, but it’s the Su Misura (made-to-

measure) service, available in its flagship Rome boutique on the city’s Via del Babuino, which has gained the brand a legion of bespoke menswear fans. ‘Owning a Su Misura suit makes our clients feel unique; it represents the perfect balance between the personal taste of the client and the skill and mastery of our tailors,’ explains Elisabetta Canali, the label’s group communication director and the granddaughter of founder Giovanni Canali.

A client who books a Su Misura consultation has the full expertise of the label’s master craftsmen, paragons of fine Italian tailoring, at their disposal. ‘It all starts with the choice of model, understanding the style that best suits the physique and personality of the customer though a relationship of trust and interaction with the master tailor,’ says Elisabetta Canali.

‘We then use fabrics sourced from the best mills in Italy’s Biella district and offer, among others, 100% pure wools, mohair, cashmere, vicuna, silk and linens. After over 80 years of Above (from top): a Canali Su Misura suit; a selection of the brand’s fabric swatches

working together, we have privileged relationships with the best mills and work together to create exclusive blends and patterns just for Canali.’

While Canali’s library of textiles is of the utmost quality, it’s the fit, and the expert craftsmanship of its master tailors, that are the defining factors of a Canali made-to-measure creation, as Elisabetta Canali explains. ‘Our master tailors have years of experience and understand their craft to the highest possible levels. They are skilled professionals who take time to listen to the client and understand their bodies, their lifestyles and their needs.’

It isn’t just suits that are getting the personal treatment in Rome; luxury labels offering personalisation and made-to-measure services line the city’s historic streets. On Via dei Condotti, one of the city’s premier shopping streets, luxury Italian label Ermenegildo Zegna offers clients a vast array of ultra-personalised finishing touches, including monogrammed buttons, personalised shirt cufflinks and even bespoke fabrics with the wearer’s name woven into the selvedge.

stitching and hardware, ensuring that even if clients don’t opt for a traditional bespoke suit, their accessories will be unique.

The Made in Italy initiative draws together the best of Italian brands and the Made in Italy label indicates the use of quality, luxury Italian fabrics, but it’s not just the materials that keep this nation at the forefront of the luxury market.

The country’s long tradition of fine craftsmanship, particularly present in its tailoring, is as strong as ever – and when it comes to bespoke, Rome is clearly the place to be

MY NEIGHBOURHOOD The Jerry Thomas Project revives American speakeasy-style cocktail

mixing in the heart of Rome. This intimate club was set up in 2010 by four skilled bartenders, Leonardo Leuci, Roberto Artusio, Antonio Parlapiano and Alessandro Procoli, who wanted to share their experience and knowledge with other bartenders as well as with curious drinkers.

Leonardo Leuci shares the high points of the Trastevere neighbourhood, and some of his favourites from further afield, with Theresa Harold thejerrythomasproject.it

‘I love Trastevere because its tiny streets are full of great bars, bistros and cafés. There’s a constant holiday atmosphere and people always look friendly and relaxed even if they are just on their way home from work. You can also find small artisan shops or a nice vintage boutique.

‘For me, the most underrated sight is the Basilica di Santa Maria.

It’s amazing, but people seem to not notice it, maybe because they’re too focused on where to go to eat.

‘You’re most likely to find

me in a bar known as Ma Che by the locals, which is the meeting point for most of the people in the neighbourhood. I also like Meccanismo in Piazza Trilussa, which is a nice cocktail bar and restaurant with a convivial atmosphere,

‘If I have friends visiting, I’ll take them to Appia Antica [the Appian Way], Castelli Romani [a group of wine-producing towns located a little way outside of the city], Ariccia [a picturesque town to the south-east of Rome] or Ostia Antica [an archaeological site near Rome’s Ostia district].

It’s a break from the frenzy and chaos of the city and these offer a perfect union between vineyards, lakes, forests, ancient art and gastronomy.

‘My favourite walk in Rome is along Via del Governo Vecchio, in the heart of the city. The street is full of great vintage shops, organic restaurants, quirky cafés and ancient monuments, all within a five-minute walk of each other. I would strongly recommended checking out the view from the Pincio terrace, which looks out across Piazza di Spagna, Piazza del Popolo, Villa Borghese and many other main attractions.

‘In my downtime, I might well go to Ostia, especially in winter when the beach is almost deserted and you can

It isn’t so hidden any more, but still worth a look. The Basilica di San Clemente al Laterano is one local

secret. Although it’s considered a minor basilica, it’s a unique monument in the history of Rome, combining architecture, art and history.

‘My absolute top tip is to simply walk everywhere, walk and get lost – there’s always something to discover in the Eternal City.’

Модный Бриз

Итальянские дизайнеры пытаются поймать волну, предлагая свежие и интригующие идеи на морскую тематику. Ханна Льюис решила нырнуть поглубже

PHOTO: © GORUNWAY.COM

В этом сезоне в известном итальянском доме моды Emilio Pucci состоялся горячо ожидаемый дебют молодого дизайнера Массимо Джорджетти, который представил здесь свою первую коллекцию. Все переживания о том, что Джорджетти не сможет сравниться со своим предшественником Питером Дундасом, волшебным образом испарились. Смелая и

globalblue.com

изысканная коллекция молодого дизайнера, имела огромный успех на подиуме, заворожив зрителей дерзкими цветами и юношескими, экспериментальными штрихами, – фирменный почерк Джорджетти, обеспечивший ему признание в MSGM. Особое восхищение присутствующих вызвали элементы морской тематики, доминирующей в коллекции Джорджетти. Компания Emilio Pucci была основана на острове Капри, и, возможно, именно это сподвигло молодого дизайнера на поиски вдохновения в подводном мире. Пестрые рыбки нашли своё выражение в яркой вышивке и живописных принтах, а одежда свободного кроя была оживлена красочными подводными пейзажами. В руках Джорджетти естественные цвета моря поддаются гиперболизации и становятся калейдоскопичными, превращая, например, простое платье в коктейльное, украшенное узорами в виде тропических рыб, морских черепах и крабов. Наиболее фантастический мотив коллекции Джорджетти поведал волшебную любовную историю с русалками и матросами, которые появляются в серии принтов наряду с корабельными канатами, ракушками и морскими обитателями. Другой мотив коллекции представляет более тонкую, но столь же эффектную эстетику; полупрозрачные свитера, украшенные ракушками, сочетались с белыми брюками свободного кроя и бело-голубыми футболками, придающими образу иллюзию морской ряби. Как наглядно демонстрирует эта коллекция Emilio Pucci, морская тематика вновь на гребне модной волны. Классический и предсказуемый гардероб яхтсмена канул в лету, а его место занял свежий и неожиданный подход к морскому тренду, черпающий вдохновение не только в надводной, но также и в подводной жизни. Италия славится своим живописным

побережьем и изобильной дикой природой. Поэтому наступление летнего сезона итальянские дизайнеры отмечают созданием роскошных и изысканных нарядов, воздающих должное красоте итальянских ландшафтов и их роли в формировании итальянской культуры. Фаусто Пуглиси, относительный новичок в миланской моде, прославился своими замысловатыми вышивками. Как и Джорджетти, Пуглиси выбрал морские образы центральным мотивом своей коллекции этого сезона: юбки, короткие топы и лифы, усыпанные 3D раковинами коралловых, розовых, золотых и бронзовых оттенков, вдохновленная греческим стилем драпировка шелком, яркие цвета и принты, а также наряды в стиле колор-блокинг. Коллекция дизайнера с невероятной элегантностью повествует нам историю о морских приключениях; золотистые и серебристые ракушки, контрастирующие на фоне черных коктейльных платьев, сочетались с талантливыми вышивками Пуглиси. Корсеты и юбки в гладиаторском стиле усеяны золотым и стеклянным бисером в форме шипов, а узоры из морских раковин напоминают роскошные драгоценные камни из подводных сокровищ. Каждая новая коллекция Dolce & Gabbana – это ода Италии. Поэтому неудивительно, что морские мотивы нашли отображение в коллекции бренда. Дизайнерский дуэт Стефано Габбана и Доменико Дольче словно взглянули на свою родину глазами туристов и заново переосмыслили богатое культурное наследие и разнообразие природных ландшафтов Италии. Платья были украшены забавными принтами с изображением пляжей, морских развлечений и живописных итальянских окрестностей, а строгие черные смокинги были осыпаны крабами и морскими звездами, точно драгоценными камнями. Морская жизнь динамична, полна самых невероятных красок и открывает неисчерпаемые ресурсы для творчества. Однако стиль, вдохновлённый морскими мотивами, – это не только смелые и

экстравагантные цветовые схемы. Max Mara представил одну из самых сильных коллекций сезона, которая хоть и сильно отличается от видения Pucci и Пуглиси, тем не менее, не теряет своей морской сути. Горизонтальные полосы, классическое сочетание красного, белого и темно-синего цветов, большие золотые пуговицы – все это может показаться обыденным и знакомым, пока не коснется рук креативного директора Яна Гриффитса. Отойдя от традиционной цветовой палитры, Max Mara смешивают черные и желтые краски, ловко преображая привычный образ костюма. Легкий и элегантный крой, являющийся фирменным почерком бренда, был разбавлен принтами, на создание которых дизайнеров вдохновила Итальянская Ривьера и классические морские мотивы. Тельняшка, выглядывающая из-под простой куртки, чьи эполеты и золотистая фурнитура лишь намекают на присутствие военно-морской тематики, предлагают нам утонченный взгляд на морскую тенденцию. Однако в других образах морские мотивы представлены довольно открыто и смело. Полосатая и блестящая юбка-карандаш, отделанная бахромой, сочеталась с футболкой с изображением маяка. Многие образы были полностью представлены в красных, белых и синих расцветках, а летние полосатые куртки, надетые поверх еще более полосатых брюк свободного кроя, были украшены принтами корабельных канатов.

Max Mara славится утонченной элегантностью образов. Так и в этот раз, простейшие элементы гардероба и силуэты получили новую жизнь благодаря интересной современной интерпретации классической темы. Прислушайтесь к советам итальянских дизайнеров в этом сезоне и привнесите в свой гардероб немного морского настроения. Кто бы ни поразил ваше воображение, Max Mara своим видением жизни на палубах или дом моды Emilio Pucci своей подводной фантазией, ничто так не вселяет дух лета, как красоты морского побережья.

58: In Focus: Bulgari Watches

В Фокусе: Часы Bulgari

Ювелирный дом Bulgari производит фурор в мире высокого часового искусства, – рассказывает Стивен Дойг Величественный кремовый фасад флагманского магазина Bulgari расположился на одной престижных улиц Рима Via dei Condotti по соседству с такими бутиками, как Dior, Hermes и Cartier, в двух шагах от знаменитой Испанской лестницы. Однако, Bulgari, лучше всех остальных брендов смотрится на фоне этой очаровательной части Рима. Именно в этот магазин зашла молодая Элизабет Тейлор во время своего перерыва между съемками фильма Клеопатра в 1963 году, и именно этот визит ознаменовал начало романа всей ее жизни: романа с ювелирными украшениями и с Bulgari в частности. Наряду со своими фантастическими драгоценными камнями, соблазнительными браслетами Serpenti и роскошными кольцами Bzero1, Bulgari заполнил нишу элегантных часов, создавая легендарные, безупречные механизмы, которые расширяют границы часового искусства. C каждым годом бренд продолжает выпускать все более захватывающие дух коллекции. «Каждая новая модель, которую я создаю, должна соответствовать духу Bulgari и отражать эволюцию всего бренда, – говорит Фабрицио Буонамасса Стильяни, главный дизайнер часового подразделения Bulgari.

– Работая над тем или иным продуктом, я представляю себе модельный ряд целиком, пытаясь определить ценовую позицию и место нового экземпляра в существующей линейке». Такой подход позволяет компании Bulgari отдавать дань уважения своему богатому наследию и, в тоже время, оставаться открытой для инноваций и свежих идей. Новая страница истории бренда была открыта всего 40 лет назад в 1977 году. Это значит, что Bulgari является относительным новичком в мире высокого часового искусства, где ремесло и опыт великих globalblue.com

швейцарских часовщиков оттачивается веками, а к выскочкам относятся скептически. Секрет Bulgari заключается в том, что компания инвестирует в швейцарское производство, расположенное в городе Невшатель недалеко от Женевы, гарантируя соответствие всех механизмов и усложнений швейцарским часовым традициям. Так, знаменитый итальянский стиль и умение показать товар лицом тонко и крепко сплелись со стандартами швейцарского часового мастерства. Основав Bulgari в 1884 году, Сотирио Вульгарис положил начало легендарному ювелирному дому, прообразом которого стало итальянское изобилие и роскошный стиль жизни. Несмотря на кажущуюся ответственность перед наследием бренда, Стильяни абсолютно не ограничен в принятии своих решений. «Настоящий дизайн сопряжен с определенными ограничениями, и именно эти ограничения являются движущей силой эстетики, – говорит он. – Иногда я могу найти вдохновение в красивом двигателе или даже в римском Колизее, но не всегда эти образы можно использовать для создания часов. Поэтому, вдохновение должно быть уместным и иметь смысл». Как, например, в случае с такими моделями, как Octo, Diva и Serpenti, которые уже давно стали культовыми. Последняя была дебютом компании в области часов. Эта изящная модель, вышедшая впервые в 1940-х годах, стала отражением витого дизайна коллекции украшений Bulgari Serpenti. Ее создание предварило начало нового этапа в истории бренда, первой серьезной моделью которого были объявлены часы Bulgari Bulgari. Появившиеся в 1977 году часы отличались удлиненным шрифтом циферблата и классическим дизайном; до сих пор эта модель остается главным бестселлером ювелирного дома. Несмотря на то, что традиционная эстетика уже долгое время продолжает быть визитной карточкой часов Bulgari, коллекции бренда не остались без инноваций. В 2000 году Bulgari приобрел

часовую мануфактуру Daniel Roth. Даниель Рот, основатель компании, известный своими часами с усложнениями и фантастическими турбийонами, создал для Bulgari ослепительную серию часовскелетонов, позволяющих лицезреть работу сложного часового механизма. В этом году череду экспериментов компания провела в области смарт-часов. Концептуальная модель Bulgari Diagono Magnesium, представленная весной 2015 года, оборудована технологией NFC. Благодаря ей, часы взаимодействовуют с портативными устройствами посредством мобильного приложения Bulgari Vault и могут выполнять основные функции смартфона. И хотя этот концепт до сих пор находится в разработке, ходит слух, что часы будут доступны широкой общественности уже в 2016 году. В скором времени бренд Bulgari сможет похвастаться не только безупречным мастерством и первоклассным дизайном изделий, но и применением передовых технологий 21 века, о чем Сотирио Вульгарис вряд ли мог мечтать.

Bespok-ойный Шоппинг Когда дело касается пошива костюма на заказ, настоящие модники едут в Рим. Руайрид Притчард рассказывает о традиционных итальянских ателье Самые стильные в мире мужчины, от голливудских суперзвезд до европейских аристократов, считают Рим лучшим местом для покупки костюма. Итальянская столица, приютившая рекордное число как международных, так и независимых брендов, может похвастаться великолепным выбором рубашек и костюмов, которые смогут с лихвой удовлетворить запросы даже самых требовательных стиляг. Одним из лидеров по пошиву современных костюмов можно по праву считать римское ателье Sartoria Ripense и его руководителя Андреа Лупарелли. За долгие годы своей работы ему удалось завоевать признание невероятного числа клиентов со всего мира, многие из которых специально прилетают в Рим с одной единственной

целью – сделать заказ в ателье мастера. Следуя по стопам своего деда, от которого Луапарелли и унаследовал страсть к традиционному итальянскому портняжному делу, итальянец решил открыть собственную мастерскую под названием Sartoria Ripense. Случилось это ровно 16 лет назад на Via di Ripetta, всего в нескольких шагах от знаменитой площади Piazza del Popolo. Для Луапарелли Sartoria Ripense одновременно объединяет в себе и лабораторию, и швейную мастерскую. В процессе пошива костюма основное внимание портной уделяет «пропорциям и индивидуальному телосложению каждого клиента, чтобы в итоге придать костюму идеальную форму, – поясняет он. – Все начинается перед зеркалом, где клиент встречается с профессиональными консультантами и портными, которые всегда помогут сделать верный выбор, основываясь на собственном опыте». Именно во время первой консультации клиенты Лупарелли знакомятся с обширной коллекцией тканей, отделочных материалов и аксессуаров, которыми располагает ателье. В результате экспериментов, проводимых в так называемой «лаборатории» Sartoria globalblue.com

Ripense посетители могут собрать целый гардероб одежды, сделанной исключительно на заказ, начиная от шикарного костюма и заканчивая мелкими аксессуарами. «У нас можно подобрать даже бляшку для ремня», – говорит Лупарелли. Очевидно, что миссия Лупарелли заключается в том, чтобы сохранить традиционный итальянский костюм в гардеробе современного человека. Однако Sartoria Ripense не единственное римское ателье, привлекающее внимание модников из разных стран. Множество роскошных брендов, имеющих бутики по всему миру, открыли в Риме свои филиалы. Среди них – итальянский модный дом Canali, основанный в 1934 году. Canali стал одним из самых респектабельных брендов официальной мужской одежды. Особого внимания заслуживает услуга пошива одежды на заказ «Su Misura», предоставляемая во флагманском бутике бренда на Via del Babuino в Риме. «Костюмы Su Misura позволяют нашим клиентам чувствовать себя уникальными; такой костюм гармонично сочетает в себе индивидуальный стиль владельца и безупречное мастерство наших портных»,

105

– поясняет Элизабетта Канали, директор по коммуникациям и правнучка основателя компании Джованни Канали. При заказе услуги Su Misura клиент получает обширную консультацию с детальными советами по подбору всех необходимых составляющих традиционного итальянского костюма. «Все начинается с выбора модели и стиля, который лучше всего подчеркнет фигуру и индивидуальность покупателя, – говорит Элизабетта Канали. – Затем мы подбираем ткани, поступившие к нам с лучших фабрик итальянской провинции Biella, среди которых 100% шерсть, мохер, кашемир, викунью, шелк и лен. За 80 лет работы у нас сложились хорошие отношения с лучшими фабриками, которые создают для нашей компании эксклюзивные ткани и узоры». Коллекция тканей Canali поразит воображение любого, однако, по словам Элезабетты Канали, главными особенностями фирменных костюмов являются идеальный крой и безупречное мастерство пошива. «Наши портные имеют многолетний опыт работы и отлично знают свое дело. Они обладают наивысшими квалификациями и прекрасно понимают нужды клиентов, их конституцию и стиль жизни». Стоит заметить, что слуги пошива одежды на заказ, представленные в Риме, не ограничиваются только лишь костюмами. Многие люксовые бренды предлагают услуги индивидуальной кастомизации и подгона одежды в своих бутиках, расположенных на центральных улицах города. На Via dei Condotti, одной из знаменитых торговых улиц Рима, роскошный итальянский бренд Ermenegildo Zegna предлагает своим клиентам широкий спектр персонализированных услуг, включая подбор оригинальных пуговиц и запонок, а также сделанных на заказ тканей, с вышитыми инициалами клиента. Культовый итальянский бренд Loro Piana может похвастаться эксклюзивной услугой по кастомизации сумок и обуви. В арсенале бутика более 30 вариаций тканей, нитей и фурнитуры, которые могут гарантировать

уникальность аксессуаров, даже если клиент не решится на «bespoke tailoring». Понятие «Сделано в Италии» объединяет в себе не только созвездие лучших итальянских брендов; это, своего рода, гарантия качества. Однако роскошные материалы не единственная причина доминирования Италии на рынке роскоши. Основанное на старинных традициях мастерство итальянских портных всегда было на высоте, поэтому, когда речь заходит о том, где лучше всего заказать хороший костюм, Рим кажется очевидным ответом.

46: The New Nautical 新海洋风

本季，意大利设计师们着眼于波涛之下，以海洋为主 题放飞奇思妙想。Hannah Lewis带您深入了解 本季，Emilio Pucci迎来了一场万众瞩目的处子秀： 年轻的设计师Massimo Giorgetti发布了他为这个 著名意大利时装品牌创作的首个系列。曾经有人担 心Pucci能否填补前任设计师Peter Dundas留下的 空缺，而如今那些怀疑者们都可以歇一歇了。出人意 表的用色、无处不在的年轻化特色和实验性元素再 加上 Giorgetti在MSGM赖以成名的标志性风格， 这个自信而成熟的系列在T台秀上大获成功。 这一系列当中，有一个概念尤其引人注目，那就 是Giorgetti对海洋主题的大胆表达。Emilio Pucci 品牌是在卡普里岛上创立的，或许这便是激发这位 新晋设计师到水下寻找创作灵感的原因。色彩斑斓 的鱼儿浮游在各式各样的服饰之上，或通过卡通般 亮彩刺绣呈现，或饰以画作印花，充满生机的水下场 景为宽松的剪裁增色不少。 通过对天然色彩的演绎，Giorgetti将水下的世 界展现得异彩纷呈；热带鱼、海龟和螃蟹紧紧附着 于酒会礼服之上，简单的元素亦能起到令人惊叹的 效果。在一件作品当中，美人鱼和水手周身环绕着绳 索、贝壳和各类海洋生物，Giorgetti用最美妙的图 案讲述了一个迷人的水下爱情故事。其他作品多给 人以更微妙的美感，但同样让人印象深刻；点缀着贝 壳的薄针织衫搭上一条如海浪般花白的长裤，又或 在外面套一件蓝色和白色印花的运动衫，即可穿出 水波荡漾的奇妙即视感。 就像Pucci的这个系列所证明的，设计师们正在 对海洋主题进行新的尝试。“游艇风”虽然经典，多少 也有些千篇一律了；如今取而代之的，将是一股更超 尘脱俗、更令人惊喜的新潮流：它不仅放眼于海上世 界，还深入探索波涛之下。意大利本就以其异彩纷呈 的海岸和丰富多样的海洋生物而闻名，随着夏季将 至，该国的设计师们也纷纷借用这一自然的遗赠，创 作出一件件扣人心弦的奢华作品，以此向意大利的 美丽海岸线及其对意大利文化的深远影响致敬。 在米兰的设计师阵营当中，Fausto Puglisi算是 资历较新的一员，他赖以成名的便是错综复杂的刺 绣作品。和Giorgett一样，Puglisi也着意在海洋中 寻找他本季作品的主题；珊瑚色、粉色、金色和古铜 色的贝壳以3D立体形状或展现在裙子、露脐装和紧 身上衣上，或点缀在外套的褶边上，或散落在希腊 风格的丝质垂褶上，让原本色调单一的装扮焕发出 别样光彩。 globalblue.com

在黑色的鸡尾酒小礼服上，一只只贝壳显得分 外夺目，更把Puglisi巧夺天工的刺绣装饰衬得溢彩 流光，将一个关于海洋的故事娓娓道出。金色和玻 璃珠绣如长钉般布满紧身上衣和角斗士风格衬裙， 形形色色的贝壳则如同一枚枚宝石点缀其间，一眼 看去全身上下无处不是海中的珍宝。 在Dolce & Gabbana，每一个系列都仿佛是一 封写给意大利的情书。无怪乎两位设计师Stefano Gabbana和Domenico Dolce要从游客的视角环 顾他们的祖国，纵览意大利丰富的文化遗产和奇异 的自然风光，最终选择以海洋作为新季作品的主 题。连衣裙上或饰有描绘沙滩景象的卡通风格图 案，或印着意大利海岸美景的照片；黑色长尾礼服 上则点缀着镶了宝石的螃蟹和海星。形形色色的海 洋元素充满了生机与活力，不禁让人浮想联翩。 不过，海洋风格可不只限于大胆的图案和夸张 的用色。Max Mara推出了本季最强势系列之一，这 一系列虽然与Pucci和Puglisi的新品迥然不同，却 也呈现了一番引人注目的海洋风尚。横向条纹、 红/白/深蓝色的经典组合、超大金色纽扣——听上 去或许有些刻板老套，但品牌创意总监Ian Griffiths却通过奇思妙想让这些元素呈现出了别样 的精彩。 Max Mara刻意偏离了传统配色，将黑色和黄 色混搭在一起，一举免于沦为俗套。品牌标志性的 柔顺剪裁与里维埃拉风格的图案和经典海洋元素搭 配，相得益彰。不列颠条纹衫（水手衫）搭上一件饰 有肩章和金质硬件的简单夹克，海洋风格似乎尚不 明显；但在其他作品中，设计师对这一主题的诠释就 大胆多了。饰有流苏的条纹铅笔裙闪闪发光，与印有 灯塔图案的T恤相映成趣；许多搭配从头到脚都是 红、白、蓝的三色组合：条纹夏季外套里面搭的是条 纹更多的短袖，而宽松的裤子上则饰有绳索的图 案。Max Mara素来以低调的优雅而著称。新季系 列巧妙地以现代风格诠释了海洋这一传统主题，以 此为最简单的款型注入了新的生命。 快学一学各大意大利品牌的新季系列，也给您 的衣橱注入一股海洋风吧。不论让您心动的是Max Mara描绘的甲板生活还是Pucci的深海狂想曲，海 滨就是对夏天最好的诠释！

牙阶梯（Spanish Steps）仅数步之遥的宝格丽旗舰 店却从众品牌名店中脱颖而出，牢牢扎根于这片迷 人的土地。正是这家店在1963年吸引了年轻的伊丽 莎白·泰勒（Elizabeth Taylor）于《埃及艳后》 （Cleopatra）拍摄间隙造访，让她与奢华珠宝—— 特别是宝格丽——结下了一生一世的不解之缘。除 了精美绝伦的宝石、精致迷人的Serpenti蛇形手链 和华丽奢美的Bzero1戒指，宝格丽在腕表界亦占有 一席之地，独具创意、巧夺天工的腕表一次次让腕表 界为之震撼，每一年都比过去一年带来更多惊喜。 “每当我展望新产品，我都会和宝格丽的传统联 系起来。新产品一定要能传承宝格丽的传统，”品牌 腕表部门的设计总监Fabrizio Buonamassa Stigliani表示。“所有的产品在我的脑海中一字排 开，新产品需要在适当的时间以适当的价格完美地 融入已有的腕表系列。” 这种理念在致敬宝格丽悠久历史的同时，也鼓 励创新和创造。宝格丽是高级腕表界的后起之秀。 品牌于1977年初涉腕表，至今仅有不到40年的历 史。在高级腕表界，瑞士知名品牌凭借着数个世纪 的精雕细琢一统腕表天下，而人们往往会对新品牌 吹毛求疵。但宝格丽自有其成功的秘诀，那就是投 资一家开设在诺沙泰尔（Neuchâtel）的瑞士腕表 厂。工厂毗邻日内瓦，由此确保品牌旗下的机芯和零 件都严格遵循瑞士的腕表传统。宝格丽特有的意大 利气质和风格与瑞士腕表的精准完美地融合在一

起，造就独一无二的宝格丽腕表。 自1884年Sotirio Voulgaris创立宝格丽以来， 这股意大利气质便如影随形，见证着这家珠宝商逐 渐占据世界奢侈品牌的半壁江山。事实上，Stigliani 非但没有受到悠久传统的巨大压力，反而从中获得更 多决策自由。“优秀的设计是有边界的，正是这种边 界带来的约束催生出更多美感，”Stigliani如是说 道。“一台精美的机器甚或罗马的斗兽场都会带给我 无限灵感，但是你不能依葫芦画瓢地设计腕表。灵 感必须合情合理。” 用“合情合理”来形容宝格丽标志性的 Octo、Diva和Serpenti腕表再适合不过了。诞生于 上世纪四十年代的Serpenti珠宝腕表系列展现了宝 格丽Serpenti珠宝的蜿蜒灵动之美，是品牌在腕表 界的首次尝试。而宝格丽全心全意投身于腕表创造 还要追溯到Bulgari Bulgari腕表的问世。该系列始 创于1977年，以表盘上纤巧细长的数字和玲珑典雅 的风格而著称，时至今日仍是宝格丽的畅销之作。 一直以来，尊贵典雅是宝格丽腕表的精髓，然而 创新亦是宝格丽不竭的动力之源。品牌于2000年收 购了以复杂腕表和精密陀飞轮而闻名遐迩的Daniel Roth腕表公司。Daniel Roth大师为宝格丽设计出 了饰有骷髅头的腕表珍品，巧夺天工的内部机械和 酷炫华丽的外表装饰相得益彰。 宝格丽没有停止在腕表领域探索的步伐，并于 今年涉足智能腕表的试验。宝格丽于2015年春季推

Ripense便是最负盛名的现代定制男装品牌之一，已 为不计其数的国际顾客提供专业的私人定制男装， 许多人更是为此专程亲临罗马。 满怀着与生俱来的激情和对意大利传统剪裁艺 术的热爱，Luparelli继承了同为裁缝的祖父的衣钵， 于16年前在Via di Ripetta大道上开设了Sartoria Ripense裁缝店，店址距离历史悠久的罗马人民广场 （Piazza del Popolo）仅数步之遥。在Luparelli看 来，Sartoria Ripense与其说是一家裁缝店，不如说 是一间实验室。打造一件新西装时，他会“考虑每位 顾客的独特身材和体型，创造最合身的服饰；一切从 镜子前开始，裁缝和顾问会为顾客的整个体验提供 悉心的帮助和指导，”Luparelli如是说道。 在咨询当中，顾客会惊奇地发现，Luparelli的 裁缝店有那么丰富的布料、装饰和配饰可供选 择。Sartoria Ripense的“剪裁实验室”为顾客缔造了 一个私人专属衣柜，西装、围巾以及各种服饰一应俱 全。Luparelli表示：“甚至是皮带扣，我们都能为顾 客度身定做。” 毫无疑问，Luparelli希望在现代男士的衣橱中 为传统的意大利剪裁保留一席之地。除Sartoria Ripense之外，还有诸多裁缝店吸引着全世界最具高 雅品味的男士亲临罗马城。世界各地的奢侈品牌纷

日本語 46: The New Nautical 海からの新風 イタリアのデザイナーたちは今シーズン、波間に目を 向け、海をテーマとしたフレッシュで興味深い作品を 繰り出している。ハンナ・ルイスがその世界に飛び込 んだ。 今シーズン、エミリオ・プッチでは若手デザイナーの マッシモ・ジョルジェッティが待望のデビュー作を発 表。この有名イタリアンファッションハウスのために 製作した初のコレクションだ。前任者ピーター・デュ ンダスの後継として大丈夫だろうかと気を揉んでい た人がいたとしたら、そんな心配は無用だった。キャ ットウォークで見せたコレクションは自信に満ちて完 成度が高く、大胆な色彩と若々しさ、実験的な感覚 に溢れていた。MSGMでも絶賛されたジョルジェッ ティ独特のスタイルだ。 このコレクションで特に注目されたコンセプトは「 海」で、ジョルジェッティは海をテーマとした作品を存 分に披露した。エミリオ・プッチはカプリ島で創業し たレーベル。この新任デザイナーはおそらくそれをヒ ントに、海面下に発想を求めたのだろう。衣装には、 漫画のような鮮やかな刺繍や絵画風プリントで表現 した色とりどりの魚が泳ぎ、ゆったりと仕立てられた 服に海中の躍動的なシーンが生気を吹き込んだ。 海中の自然色がジョルジェッティの手によって誇 張されて、まるで万華鏡のよう。熱帯魚やウミガメ、

カニがカクテルドレスに踊り、シンプルな服がステー トメントピースに大変身だ。最も風変りなモチーフは 人魚と船乗りで、ロープや貝殻、海の生物と共に不思 議なラブストーリーを語っていた。その他、 「海」をさ りげなく効果的に表現した作品もあった。貝殻で飾 られたシアーセーターを、波のようにうねる白のズボ ンに合わせたり、青白プリントのジャージーに重ねて 巧みにさざ波のような効果を出したりといった具合 だ。 このプッチのコレクションでもわかる通り、海を 新しい目でイメージするというトレンドが現れてきて いる。いつの世にも見られるヨットの甲板に似合うあ りきたりのスタイルは鳴りをひそめ、海上だけでなく 海中の生き物にもヒントを得た斬新で意外な「海」 の表現が新たに登場してきたのだ。イタリアは野生 動植物が豊かな美しい海岸で知られる。夏のシーズ ン到来に向け、この国のデザイナーたちはこの自然 遺産を謳歌し、素晴らしいイタリアの海岸線とそれ がイタリア文化の形成で果たした役割を礼讃する贅 沢で軽やかな作品を創り出している。 ミラノで比較的新顔のファウスト・プリージは、 込み入った刺繍で有名だ。プリージもジョルジェッテ ィと同様、 「海」を今シーズンのテーマに選んだ。コ ーラル、ピンク、ゴールド、ブロンズといった色の立体 的な貝がスカートやクロップトップ、ボディスに群れ、 アウターウェアの裾に散らばり、ギリシャ風のシルク のドレープからのぞいて、基本的にはカラーブロック で構成されたルックスに模様と色を差している。 ここで語られているのは、断然大人のエレガント な海物語。カクテルドレスの黒地に映える貝殻は、プ リージが得意とする金銀の刺繍の間に身を横たえて いる。金とガラスのビーズがボディスやグラディエータ ー風のスカートから釘のように突き出ている合間に 貝殻が宝石のように埋もれ、あたかも海中に眠って いた宝石箱をひっくり返したかのような贅沢な光景 だ。 一方、ドルチェ＆ガッバーナはどのコレクションも イタリア宛てのラブレター。観光客の目線で見たイタ リア、その豊かな文化遺産と変化に富んだ景観にイ ンスピレーションを求めるステファノ・ガッバーナとド メニコ・ドルチェのデザイナーデュオが、 「海」のテー マをコレクションに使うのは不思議でも何でもない。 ドレスはビーチや海辺の風物を描いた漫画風のモチ ーフや、風光明媚なイタリアの沿岸地方を捉えた大 胆な写真プリントが特徴で、シャープな黒のタキシー ドはジュエリーを散りばめたカニやヒトデで飾られ た。海辺の暮らしは活気があり色彩豊かで、エキサイ ティングで美しいモチーフになる。 とはいえ、海に発想を得たスタイルが大胆なモチ ーフや鮮やかな色使いばかりかというと、そうではな globalblue.com

い。マックスマーラは今シーズン最強コレクションの 一つだが、プッチやプリージとは全く違うスタイルな がら、とても印象的で断然ウェアラブルな海のファッ ションを見せてくれた。水平ストライプ、時代を超え て愛される赤、白、ネイビーのコンビネーション、大 ぶりの金ボタンと言えば、文字通りでお馴染みのマリ ンスタイルのように聞こえるかもしれないが、クリエ イティブディレクターのイアン・グリフィスの手に掛か った作品は全く違う。 典型的なカラーパレットから離れて黒や黄をミッ クスすることで、制服のような印象を与えない巧妙 さ。リヴィエラにインスピレーションを得たプリントや 海に付き物のディテールを、同ブランド独特の柔らか な仕立てで見せた。肩飾りと金ボタンのついたシン プルなジャケットの下からのぞくブレトンストライプの シャツは、ほのかに海を思わせるに止まり、控えめな トレンド表現だ。一方で海のテーマを大胆に押し出 した作品もあった。例えば、房飾りがきらめくストラ イプのペンシルスカートと、灯台をモチーフにしたシ ャツの組み合わせだ。ルックスはてっぺんからつま先 まで赤、白、青を使ったものが多く、ストライプのサ マージャケットをこれまたストライプの上に重ね、ゆ ったりしたパンツにはロープ柄のプリントといった具 合だ。マックマーラは控えめなエレガンスで知られ、 ここでも古典的なテーマを現代的に解釈した巧みな デザインで、ごくシンプルなアイテムやシルエットに新 たな息吹を吹き込んでいた。 今シーズンはイタリア人に倣って、自分のワードロ ーブにもちょっと潮風を入れてみよう。インスピレー ションがマックスマーラの洋上生活観であれプッチ の海底ファンタジーであれ、夏はやっぱり海辺で決 まり！

58: In Focus: Bulgari Watches 注目の商品：ブルガリの腕時計 高級ジュエリーブランドのブルガリが、オート・オル ロジー（高級時計）の世界で波乱を巻き起こしてい る。スティーヴン・ドイグがレポートする。 ローマの名高いコンドッティ通りにブルガリの旗艦店 がある。クリーム色の外観が威厳を醸すこの店の近 辺には、ディオール、エルメス、カルティエなど同じく らい有名な老舗ブランドがあるが、スペイン階段に ほど近いこのチャーミングなローマの一角にブルガリ ほどすんなり馴染むブランドは他にない。ここは、若 き日のエリザベス・テイラーが1963年に映画『クレオ パトラ』の撮影の合間に訪れ、高級ジュエリーに魅 了されて生涯愛好するきっかけになった場所。ブル ガリは彼女の大のお気に入りだった。同社では、幻

想的な貴石や魅惑的な「セルペンティ」ブレスレッ ト、ビー・ゼロワン（B.zero1）リングの他に、時計の 世界でもニッチを開拓し、時計製作の限界を押し広 げる画期的で完璧な時計を創作。毎年、前年よりさ らにエキサイティングな商品を生み出している。 「新商品を考える時は、ブルガリのルーツにふさ わしいものを必ずイメージするようにしています。ブル ガリの進化の表象でなくてはならないんです」という のは、同社時計部門のデザインディレクター、ファブ リツィオ・ボナマッサ・スティリアーニだ。 「商品を進 化の道筋に置いて考えます。既存の時計を並べ、タ イミングと価格面でちょうどいいところにうまくフィッ トする商品をイメージするわけです。」 これが、ブルガリの豊かな歴史を尊重しつつ、革 新や斬新なアイデアを可能にする企業精神だ。この 有名会社の社史をたどれば、時計部門の創設はほ んの40年前、1977年のことだ。つまり、ブルガリは高 級時計界では比較的新しいのだ。数世紀にわたって 磨かれてきた技と専門知識がモノを言うこの世界で は、スイスの有名メーカーが圧倒的な存在感を誇 り、新顔は厳しい目で見られる。そんな中でブルガリ がとった秘策は、スイスのジュネーブに近いヌーシャ テルの生産施設に投資し、ムーブメントと複雑機構 を全てスイスの時計製作の伝統に従って作るように したことだ。それによって、精度基準の高いスイスの 時計作りに、イタリアンブランドならではの華とショ ーマンシップを慎重かつシームレスにブレンドするこ とができた。 ソティリオ・ヴルガリが1884年に宝飾店として創 設し、その後高級品の有力ブランドに成長したブル ガリでは、その創業当初からこうしたイタリアの華麗 さが本能にしっかり刻まれている。だからといって、 歴史の重みに押しつぶされるわけではない。逆に名 門だから、スティリアーニは自分なりの決断を自由に

下すことができるのだ。 「優れたデザインは制約があ ってこそ。制約が美観を生むのです」と彼は言う。 「 例えば、美しいエンジンを見てアイデアが浮かぶかも しれないし、ローマのコロッセオを見てピンとひらめ くかもしれない。でも、それらの形を時計に使えない 場合があるのです。だから、インスピレーションは妥 当で理に適ったものでなければ駄目なんですよ。」 理に適う ― 今や代表的な商品となったオクト、 ディーヴァ、セルペンティなどの時計を見れば、確か に理に適っている。セルペンティは同ブランド初の時 計だ。ジュエリー「セルペンティ」の巻き付くデザイン を反映し宝石を散りばめたもので、1940年代に初め て作られた。これはブルガリが時計作りに本腰を入 れ出す前のことで、本格進出は「ブルガリブルガリ」 からと言っていいだろう。1977年に発売されたこのモ デルは、文字盤の数字が縦長でどことなくクラシッ クな感じがするのが特徴で、今でも同社のベストセ ラーだ。 ブルガリの時計は本来、古典的な美しさが身上 だが、大胆な革新もこれまでの商品に共通する特徴 だ。同ブランドは2000年に、時計会社のダニエル・ ロートを買収した。この会社を創業した時計師のダ ニエル・ロートは、複雑な時計と奇想天外なトゥール ビヨンで有名で、ブルガリのために文字盤がスケルト ンになっていて卓抜した内部の仕組みがはっきり見 える素晴らしい時計を創作した。 時計作りの可能性を追求する感覚は今年も続き、 実験はスマートウォッチの領域に入っている。2015 年春に発表されたブルガリ「ディアゴノ・マグネシウ ム」コンセプトウォッチには、近距離無線通信チップ が埋め込まれていて、ブルガリヴォルト・アプリを搭 載するポータブルデバイスと接続できるようになって いる。つまり、通常スマートフォンで行う活動が時計 でできてしまうわけだ。ディアゴノ・マグネシウムは現

在まだ開発段階だが、時計業界筋によれば2016年に 登場とのこと。ブルガリでは、厳密で完璧な職人の技 とデザイン、ソティリオ・ヴルガリがブランドを立ち上 げた時には思いもしなかった21世紀のパイオニア的 テクノロジーが標準になる日が近いかもしれない。

ハリウッドのスーパースターからヨーロッパの貴族ま で、世界で最もスタイリッシュな男たちは、最高の誂 え服仕立屋を見つけるならイタリアの首都ローマだ と知っている。国際的な高級レーベルや伝統的な家 族経営のサルトリア（仕立て屋）があるローマは、目 利き中の目利きでさえ満足するテーラリングのオプシ ョンが実に豊富だ。 現代的メンズウェアの誂えではローマ有数の仕 立て師の一人が、アンドレア・ルパレッリで、彼のサ ルトリア・リペンセは世界中に得意客が多数おり、中

にはルパレッリのメイド・トゥ・メジャー（パターンオ ーダー）の腕を見込んでローマまでわざわざ飛行機 でやってくる人もいるほどだ。 仕立て師だった祖父と同じ道を歩むルパレッリ は、伝統的なイタリアのテーラリングに対する情熱と 愛着を受け継ぎ、それに駆り立てられて16年前に、 ポポロ広場からすぐのリペッタ通りにサルトリア・リペ ンセを開店した。ルパレッリいわく、サルトリア・リペ ンセは仕立て屋の店舗であると同時に実験室でもあ るという。スーツを作る時に集中するのは「各クライ アントの寸法と体型を考慮に入れて、完璧なフィット を実現すること」だと、彼は説明する。 「全ては鏡の 前から始まります。クライアントとプロが鏡の前に立 ち、仕立て師でありコンサルタントである私どもが経 験を活かしてお客様の選択をサポートし、指導してさ しあげるのです。」 このサルトリアが生地、仕上げ、アクセサリーの 膨大な資料室であることをルパレッリのクライアント が悟るのは、このコンサルテーションの過程でだ。サ ルトリア・リペンセの「実験室」で行われる実験の結 果はまさしく特注のワードローブで、スーツからスカ ーフまでありとあらゆるものが誂えられる。 「ベルト のバックルもカスタマイズできますよ」とルパレッリ。 ルパレッリの使命が、伝統的なイタリアのテーラ

リングを現代男性のワードローブの中に活かし続け ることであるのは明らかだ。ただ、世界中のお洒落な 男をローマに引き付ける仕立て屋は、サルトリア・リ ペンセだけではない。世界中にブティックを展開する 高級レーベルも、最高の誂えサービスの本拠をこの 都市に置いている。イタリアメンズウェアの有力ブラ ンド、カナーリもその一つだ。1934年に家族経営の ビジネスとして創業したカナーリは今や、美しいスー ツとフォーマルウェアで知られる有名イタリアンレー ベルの一つになったが、同ブランドの誂えメンズウェ アのファンを多数獲得してきたのは、バブイーノ通り にある旗艦店で扱うス・ミズーラ（メイド・トゥ・メジ ャー）サービスだ。 「ス・ミズーラのスーツを持つこと で、当社のクライアントは特別感を得られます。クラ イアントの個人的好みと当社仕立て師の技と熟練が 出会い、完璧なバランスが実現しているからです」 と、創業者ジョヴァンニ・カナーリの孫娘で同レーベ ルのグループ広報ディレクターを務めるエリザベッ タ・カナーリは説明する。 ス・ミズーラのコンサルテーションを予約するク ライアントは、上質なイタリアンテーラリングの模範 である同レーベルの名職人の専門知識を存分に活 用することができる。 「まず始めに型選びをします。 名仕立て師との信頼関係を通じて互いにやり取りし ながら、お客様の体型と個性に最適のスタイルを理 解するのです」とエリザベッタ・カナーリ。 「次に、イ タリアのビエラ地区にある選り抜きの紡績会社から 仕入れた生地を使います。100%ピュアウール、モヘ ア、カシミア、ヴィクーニャ、シルク、リネンなどを取り 揃えています。80年を超える付き合いで最高の紡績 会社と特別な関係を築いており、カナーリだけの厳 選されたブレンドや模様を一緒に創っています。」 カナーリでは最高品質の生地を揃えているが、 同社のメイド・トゥ・メジャーの決定的な要素はやは りフィットであり、名仕立て師の専門技能だ。エリザ ベッタ・カナーリはそれについて、 「当社の名仕立て 師は長年の経験があり、仕立ての技をこの上ないレ ベルで理解しています。時間をかけてクライアントに 耳を傾け、その身体やライフスタイル、ニーズを理解 する有能なプロフェッショナルです」という。 ローマでパーソナルな扱いを受けているのは、ス ーツだけではない。この都市の歴史香る通りには、パ ーソナライゼーションサービスやメイド・トゥ・メジャ ーサービスを提供する高級レーベルが居並ぶ。一流 ショッピング街の一つコンドッティ通りでは、高級イ タリアンレーベルのエルメネジルド・ゼニアが、モノ グラムのボタン、パーソナライズしたカフスボタンか ら、特注ファブリックのセルヴィッジ（服地の端）に 着る人の名前を織り込むサービスまで、多様な超パ ーソナル仕上げをクライアントに提供している。代表
