Clothing, accessories, images: the exhibition examines the role of fashion from 2015 to the present day, exploring its creative influence and its global economy.

MUSEUMS

xploring Rome’s most spectacular museums, from the past to modern

times GALLERIA BORGHESE The Galleria Borghese Museum houses and exhibits a collection of sculptures, bas-reliefs and ancient mosaics, as well as paintings and sculptures from the 15th to the 19th century. Among the masterpieces in the collection, of which the first and most important nucleus dates back to the collections of Cardinal Scipione (15791633), nephew of Pope Paul V, there are works by Caravaggio, Raphael, Titian, Correggio, Antonello da Messina, Giovanni Bellini and sculptures by Gian Lorenzo Bernini and Canova. The works are exhibited in 20 frescoed rooms. Over 260 paintings are kept in the Galleria Borghese Storerooms.

BARBERINI AND CORSINI NATIONAL GALLERIES The National Galleries of 28

Ancient Art are divided into two separate exhibition venues, one in Palazzo Barberini and the other in Palazzo Corsini. The patrimony of the National Galleries was formed in 1883 with the donation of the Corsini collection to the State. The collection was soon enriched with works from prestigious Roman collections, so much so that in 1949 the Italian State purchased Palazzo Barberini to open the new headquarters of the National Gallery in 1953. Today, the Corsini Gallery exhibits only works from the Corsini collection and is the only eighteenth-century collection left in Rome in its original context. Palazzo Barberini, an emblem of Roman Baroque, today exhibits a collection of works from the thirteenth to the eighteenth century with absolute masterpieces such as the Annunciation by Filippo Lippi, La Fornarina by Raphael, and Judith and Holofernes by Caravaggio.

CONCIERGE SUGGESTS

Concierge The Rome Edition GIORGIO CIOTOLI Among the wonders not to be missed near the Capitoline Museums is the Terrazza Caffarelli, a true gem offering a breathtaking view of Rome’s iconic monuments and its legendary skyline. This serene haven is the perfect retreat to unwind and soak in the city’s splendor from above. For a glimpse of Renaissance Rome, head to the charming Arco dei Banchi near Castel Sant’Angelo. Located along the historic Via Recta – once the main route linking the bridge of Castel Sant’Angelo to St. Peter’s Basilica – this enchanting arch was the entrance to I Banchi, a lively marketplace buzzing with moneychangers and shops serving pilgrims. Today, it is renowned for its exquisite ceiling, painted to resemble a starlit sky.

MUSEUMS

CASTEL SANT’ANGELO NATIONAL MUSEUM The Mausoleum of Hadrian, also known as Castel Sant’Angelo, is a unique building of its kind since it can be considered a monument, an archaeological site and a museum at the same time. The Mausoleum became a museum in 1925 and boasts several collections of sculptures, paintings, marble artefacts, weapons, furniture and objects of various origins, partly recovered in the excavation of the helical ramp of the mausoleum, partly donated by the National Roman Museum of the Baths of Diocletian and the dissolved Industrial Artistic Museum, and partly acquired on the antiques market and following the exhibitions set up to celebrate the 1911 Universal Exhibition. It also houses relics of the Italian Army. At certain times of the year it is possible to walk along the famous Passetto or er Corridore (the 30

Corridor) di Borgo: an elevated, fortified passageway that connects the Vatican with Castel Sant’Angelo, passing over the Vatican Walls.

THE NATIONAL GALLERY Rome’s National Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art is the only national museum dedicated entirely to modern and contemporary art, which includes in its collections important masterpieces by artists such as Vincent van Gogh, Amedeo Modigliani, Gustav Klimt, Jackson Pollock, Giacomo Balla, Lucio Fontana, Marcel Duchamp, Antonio Canova, Gustave Courbet, Andy Warhol, Giorgio de Chirico, Claude Monet and Alberto Burri. The works exhibited in the rooms and stored in the warehouses are an expression of the main artistic movements of the last two centuries, from Neoclassicism to Impressionism, from Divisionism to the Avant Garde of the early twentieth century, from the Novecento

movement to the so-called Roman School. Post-war informal art is widely represented, as well as Pop Art and Arte Povera. A guardian of the past, the collection also looks to the future, welcoming artists of our time.

MAXXI The idea of providing Rome with a national museum centre dedicated to contemporary arts took shape in 1997: a museum for architecture and one for 21st century arts, a space for experimental productions, a library, an auditorium, as well as spaces for live events and teaching.

Chosen from 273 applications from all over the world, the winning design was that of Anglo-Iraqi architect Zaha Hadid. Inaugurated in 2010, the MAXXI, National Museum of 21st Century Arts, and the first national museum dedicated to contemporary arts and architecture, produces and hosts art and architecture exhibitions, design projects, photogra-

phy, fashion, film festivals and theatre and dance performances. The MAXXI collections are exhibited on rotation together with temporary exhibitions, while installations by Anish Kapoor, Sol Lewitt and Maurizio Mochetti are always visible.

ARA PACIS MUSEUM The Ara Pacis represents one of the highest examples of classical art. Its construction was voted by the Roman Senate in 13 BC to honour the return of Augustus from the provinces of Gaul and Spain.

The alluvial nature of the area and the flooding by the Tiber soon led to the burial of the Ara, of which all memory was lost.

The first elements of the Ara Pacis were found starting from the 16th century inside Palazzo Peretti but it was only between 1859 and 1903 that the majority of the monument was recovered.

After a stop lasting over thirty years due to the difficulty of recovery, work resumed in 1937 to reconstruct the monument, in view of the bimillenary of the birth of Augustus.

Today the altar is on display in the Ara Pacis Museum, in the heart of Rome’s historic centre. The complex was designed by Richard Meier & Partners Architects, which has been responsible for some of the most notable

museums of the second half of the twentieth century.

CAPITOLINE MUSEUMS The collections of the Capitoline Museums, founded in 1471, are exhibited in the two buildings that, together with the Palazzo Senatorio, form Piazza del Campidoglio: Palazzo dei Conservatori and Palazzo Nuovo.

In Palazzo Nuovo, the result of the collections of noble families of past centuries, we find the statue of the Dying Gaul, the Capitoline Venus and the imposing statue of Marforio that dominates the courtyard. Palazzo dei Conservatori shows the original architectural core of the building, decorated with 35

splendid frescoes with the stories of Rome and ennobled by the presence of the ancient Capitoline bronzes: the She-Wolf, the Spinario (Boy with a Thorn), and the Capitoline Brutus.

The recently built great glass-covered hall on the first floor of the palace houses the imposing remains of the Temple of Capitoline Jupiter On the second floor, the Capitoline Art Gallery presents, in a chronologically arranged itinerary from the late Middle Ages to the eighteenth century, works of great significance, such as paintings by Caravaggio, the large canvas The Burial of Saint Petronilla

by Guercino and a substantial 36

group of paintings by Guido Reni and Pietro da Cortona.

PALAZZO DORIA-PAMPHILJ Andrea Doria created a great Renaissance court in the halls of the prestigious palace, founded in 1529, The Florentine painter Perino del Vaga was responsible for the decoration and furnishings of most of the rooms. Here you can find works by artists who have made the history of art. Among them you can find Caravaggio, Gian Lorenzo Bernini, Correggio and Titian. In the Italian garden there is the monumental marble fountain of Neptune, the work of the Carlone brothers. The palace is still

owned by the Doria Pamphilj family.

NATIONAL ROMAN MUSEUM A destination that is actually made up of several destinations, since there are 4 locations set up to house the collections. Although it was established on 7 March 1889, its roots lie in the desire to found a Museum of Antiquities in the Capital of the Kingdom following the election of Rome as Capital of Italy in 1870. Today, the National Roman Museum has four locations (Baths of Diocletian, Palazzo Altemps, Palazzo Massimo and Crypta Balbi) each of which is the custodian of a cultural heritage.

Via dei Condotti is filled with luxury fashion shops where you can get some of the most unique pieces of clothing. In the background the Spanish Steps of Trinità dei Monti

ROME AND FASHION A timeless tale of elegance, ready to be uncovered as you stroll through the city’s shopping streets TEXT Teresa Favi

CITY

I

f you think fashion is a purely Milanese affair, a glance at history reveals how deeply Rome has shaped its evolution. The bond between the Eternal City and haute couture dates back to 1871, when the Savoy court moved to Rome, ushering in a new wave of master tailors and the opening of refined ateliers. But it was during the golden years of La Dolce Vita that Roman glamour reached its zenith.

Between the Trevi Fountain, Piazza di Spagna, and Via Veneto, exquisite fabrics and meticulously detailed garments graced the figures of Italian cinema’s muses and the stars of grand American productions filmed at Cinecittà. It was here that fashion and cinema forged a legendary bond. Historic costume ateliers such as Annamode, Costumi d’Arte, Peruzzi, Farani, Pieroni, and Tirelli crafted era-defining de40

signs, while the ladies of the silver screen set the trends, becoming the the influencers of their time.

The Fontana Sisters, for instance, dressed the divine Ava Gardner both in her private life and on set, while Roberto Capucci, a master of haute couture and a pioneer of architectural design in fashion, made his mark in 1951, opening his atelier on Via Sistina at the remarkable age of 21. Another undisputed icon is Valentino, whose extraordinary creative journey began in 1961 in Piazza Mignanelli. Today, under the artistic direction of Alessandro Michele, the Maison remains a symbol of Italian luxury, housed in its iconic Baroque palace overlooking the Spanish Steps.

Fendi also plays a prominent role in this tradition.

Founded in 1925 as a small leather goods shop on Via del Plebiscito, the brand flourished under the second generation of the fami-

ly – represented by the five sisters Paola, Anna, Franca, Carla, and Alda – and in 1964, it inaugurated its celebrated store on Via Borgognona, in the heart of the city.

Exploring Rome through the lens of fashion is a truly unique experience. As you stroll through the historic centre, weaving between iconic boutiques and charming artisanal shops, you can relive the magic of an era when the Eternal City was known as the “Hollywood on the Tiber.”

Be inspired by our curated itineraries, organised across three main areas of the city: not merely a shopping spree, but a journey through history, culture, and Roman charm imbued with eternal elegance.

The enchanting streets of Via Condotti, Via Borgognona, Via Frattina, and Via del Babuino offer everything one could desire from the finest Made-in-Italy and international fashion houses. Among these illustrious names are Roman-born icons that remain deeply rooted in the city: Valentino, Bulgari, Fendi, Laura Biagiotti, the bespoke ties of Talarico Boutique, and Dan’s impeccably tailored shirts. Set in the vicinity of one of the world’s most celebrated staircases, the Spanish Steps, these renowned brands share the stage with expertly curated multibrand boutiques like Gente on Via del Babuino, a cornerstone of Roman fashion. For those seeking an elevated shopping experience, La Rinascente, Italy’s quintessential department store, graces central Via

del Tritone with its elegant allure. A different fashion scene unfolds on Via del Corso. Here, fast-fashion powerhouses like Zara, H&M, Mango, and Gap stand alongside sportswear favourites such as Adidas and Nike.

PIAZZA NAVONA Where elite boutiques and vintage treasures meet.

Step beyond the grandeur of Piazza Navona, with Bernini’s magnificent Fountain of the Four Rivers, and you will find a hidden gem of Roman shopping. Centred around Via del Governo Vecchio, this area has evolved from a haven for second-hand shops into a hub of sophisticated and unconventional boutiques, waiting to be explored. At the start of Via del Governo Vecchio, in Piazza Pasquino, three must-visit stores cater to every taste. For men, there’s SBU (Strategic Business Unit), the brainchild of the Perfetti broth43

ers. For women, Luna e l’Altra offers an unparalleled selection of Japanese fashion, featuring iconic brands such as Issey Miyake and Comme des Garçons.

As you wander down Via del Governo Vecchio, you will find an array of vintage shops brimming with treasures from the 1960s and 1970s, alongside quirky boutiques showcasing clothes with whimsical colours and naïve patterns. Among them, the standout is Maga Morgana, an artisanal atelier by Fabio and Marco Truffa, where each garment is designed to celebrate the individuality of the woman who’s wearing it. Nearby, on Via di Monserrato, don’t miss Delfina Delettrez’s jewellery boutique. Part of the Fendi legacy, this chic store dazzles with its black carpeting, mirrored walls, and avant-garde designs.

MONTI The soul of vintage and design in Rome. Tucked be44

tween the bustling arteries of Via Nazionale and Via Cavour, Monti district feels like a small village hidden within the sprawling city.

Its labyrinth of cobblestone streets and picturesque alleys radiates charm, converging around Piazza della Madonna dei Monti, where the Fontana dei Catecumeni becomes a lively meeting point for locals and visitors alike. Monti is a haven for artisans who continue to thrive amidst an eclectic mix of wine bars, pizzerias, cafés, and art galleries. Its true hallmark, however, is its abundance of vintage shops, offering everything from leather jackets and retro evening gowns to military apparel, shoes, and bags. Leading the pack is Pifebo on Via dei Serpenti, the undisputed king of vintage, celebrated for its vast selection of clothing and accessories. A cult favourite among teenagers, it unites fashion lovers with

its treasure trove of unique finds. Nearby, Pifebo Kilo caters to bargain hunters with a similar style but a less curated selection, sold by weight at wallet-friendly prices. On Via del Boschetto, Blue Goose stands out for its collection of high-quality designer second-hand garments. Prices here reflect the pristine condition and exclusivity of the items, but the investment is well worth it. A few steps away, Pulp is a dream for costume designers, brimming with men’s and women’s fashion from the 1960s onwards, all perfectly preserved.

For those seeking premium second-hand finds, Moll Flanders on Via Urbana is the place to go. This consignment boutique specializes in high-end designer pieces, showcasing a small but carefully chosen selection of trendy, coveted items, all in impeccable condition, with prices that reflect their luxury appeal.

WHERE COFFEE MEETS ART Starbucks embraces again Rome by inviting Romans and tourists to the first Flagship Store in the eternal city TEXT Martina Olivieri

R

ome, that meeting point of history and culture, welcomes an innovative newcomer: Italy’s first Starbucks flagship store in Piazza San Silvestro, inspired by the concept Where Coffee Meets Art. The American giant is not content with bringing its own style to the capital, but now turns it into a homage to Rome’s heritage, creating a place where tradition and innovation come together. Opened in partnership with the brand’s exclusive Italian licensee Percassi, the store is a harmonious addition to historic Piazza San Silvestro and a key part of the square’s redevelopment. With its elegant design blending classic and modern, the flagship store occupies two storeys with a surface area of 800 square

metres and seating for 140, and it offers a very special experience. The ground floor is home to the Main Bar and the Mixato Bar, whose welcoming atmospheres invite visitors for coffees or coffee-based cocktails; upstairs is the Coffee Lab, a space devoted to tastings, events and gatherings. The beating heart of the flagship store is the connection between coffee and art. A magnificent mural by street artist Lucamaleonte dominates the space, celebrating Rome, its mythology and the essence of coffee. Semi-permanent installations and cultural initiatives including art events and collaborations with local schools and associations make this Starbucks a place not only to have a coffee, but also to make connections. The

menu combines the best of the iconic Starbucks range with specialities created for the occasion. Outstanding innovations include Starbucks Blonde® Espresso Roast, with hints of citrus, and Starbucks Reserve™ Microblend N°21, reminiscent of chocolate, caramel and cola.

If you’re looking for an experience to remember, cocktails like Espresso Martini and Oleato® Espresso Martini, along with foodie treats such as Pinsa Romana and special aperitifs, offer a unique take on Italian culture. With this new opening, Starbucks combines the tradition of Italian coffee with the extraction methods used in the Anglo-Saxon world, bringing a cultural and artistic experience, and welcoming the Roman community for a cup of coffee.

CHIESA DEL GESÙ

It is perhaps the first church built during the Counter-Reformation and was a model for all those that came later.

Vaunting a single nave and a barrel vault, the church has a large side pulpit and a central altar. Desired by Ignatius of Loyola (with his breathtaking revolving altarpiece), it is also the mother church of the Society of Jesus.

CHIESA DI SAN LUIGI DEI FRANCESI

The church was completed in 1587 thanks to Catherine de’ Medici. The French church in Rome is famous for its paintings by Caravaggio, in

The church also conserves frescoes by Domenichino and a copy of Raphael’s Saint Cecilia by Guido Reni.

TOP PLACES

PALACES Many palaces are still inhabited by the same families who built them centuries ago, while others have become museums, embassies, government offices. But all of them are tied to the fortunes of popes who rebuilt the city beginning in the 15th century.

From the Visconti to the Orsini, the Corsini to the Colonna to the Borgia, Piccolomini, Della Rovere, Farnese, Medici, Carafa, Borghese, Barberini, Pamphilj, Chigi and Rospigliosi, each family left an enduring mark on the city. There’s Palazzo Doria Pamphilj on the busy via del Corso, decorated in the Baroque style and vaunting loggias and courtyards elegantly frescoed. Palazzo Spada in piazza Capodiferro is

also impressive. Cardinal Bernardino commissioned its construction by Borromini, the man behind the famous Galleria Prospettica. Since 1927, the building has housed the Council of State. Palazzo Farnese is nearby, in the homonymous piazza decorated with two Egyptian, granite tubs from the Baths of Caracalla. The palazzo, granted to France in 1939 for 99 years, it now serves as the French embassy and is open to the public on July 14. Palazzo Chigi in piazza Colonna was instead intended as a place to host elite parties. Bought by the Chigi family in the mid-17th century, it became the seat of the Austrian embassy in 1917, followed by the headquarters of the Ministry of the Colonies under Mussolini, then the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and, lastly, the Council of Ministers

since 1961. The nearby Palazzo Montecitorio has been the seat of the Chamber of Deputies since 1870. Palazzo Madama is seat of the Italian Senate since 1871, it was the Medici’s Roman residence until Cardinal Ferdinando bought Villa Medici on the Pincian Hill.

The villa is currently home to the French Academy in Rome. Palazzo del Quirinale was a papal residence and since 1946 it has been the official residence of the President of the Italian Republic. The Versailles-style 18th-century Palazzo Colonna is nearby, in piazza Santi Apostoli. Assigned to the university by Pope Eugene IV, the Renaissance Palazzo della Sapienza was later modified by Francesco Borromini, who added the Church of Sant’Ivo. The building houses the State Archives today.
