We all miss, in Rome, the Jil Sander flagshipstore in via del Babuino. Talking with the press office, Karla Otto, grandtourshopping.com find out that, in Rome, you can get the brand in three boutiques: Gente (via del Babuino 81), Zita Fabiani (Via Ugo Ojetti) and Bagheera in via Antonelli 26 (in Parioli area). Before shopping over there, let's have a look at the new collection. I saw beautiful coats and jackets on pale palette such as light green, grey and rose. Fabrics are mélange with double faces of cashmere and alpaca. Rubber is for handbags and shoes are really special with a platform sole.
Emporio Armani hats, a new object of desire
The fall winter collection of Emporio Armani is very fresh, those new hats are gorgeous. We will have everything in Rome, next September at the via del Babuino boutique. Ready for Shopping! The theme of Black and White, some luminous gray, some turquoise made it extremely feminine and easy at the same time. We saw oversized trouser suits, velvet evening dresses and beautiful hat that King George will sell for sure next winter. The DNA of Emporio Armani is all in a combination of fabrics, a deep study on the shoulders and a mix of soft colours.
Into the wild with Pucci
After opening the store in piazza di Spagna that grand tour shopping covered few monthes ago, Peter Dundas, the norwegian designer of Emilio Pucci, presents his collection in Milano during the fashion week. In the morning, at the press conference, he said that the the Pucci girl is in search of savage chic. For example he worked on Navajo knitwear for ponchos and on wonderful Appaloosa patterns for boots and bags. The elegant part is still there with traditional Pucci patterns that Dundas peaks from the archive in Florence.
