Patrizia Pieroni is a roman fashion designer with customers from all over the world. Especially american clients love her outfits. For this season She creates painted shirts and dresses. She told me that She was inspired by Ibiza but She wants that her clients and friends make an imagination effort. Each of us has to choose an island : it could be Capri, Ponza, Elba. The importan thing is to wear your "isola" and bring it with you at a cocktail party. Her lovely atelier-shop is in via del Pellegrino 172. If you come with www.grandtourshopping.com I can introduce you to Pieroni's world.
About few weeks ago, I went to see new creative designers at the Hotel Minerva, near the Pantheon. A little bit for shopping and a little bit for scouting. One of this new talent is Patrizia Santamaria, her brand name is Patsa which means, in a game-word, crazy (even though in italian you write pazza). She is a roman artist and actress. She loves sculpture and she makes jewels with unconventional materials such as ceramic, leather, wax, wood but also more traditional ones such as bronze and silver. She gets inspirations from Ancient Rome and from nature. At least three stores sell her creations: Gasparrini Antiquari (via Fontanella Borghese 43), Mood (via del Corso 344) and Le Cabochon in the Parioli area (via Antonio Stoppani 7). Her website www.patsa.it.
