12:44 pm
bridges is one of rome's most photographed signs. of course locals will also end up in some holiday snapshots of rome is a city full of surprises says archeologist into a guide still funny a demand. i open to you know on that i discover something new in rome almost every day it's unbelievable you never get enough of wrong i always tell tourists at one life time is not enough to see all there is to see in rome. but we did it with the world over several tourists and romans alike enjoy an evening stroll on the piazza navona. people come here to admire the fountains and their sculptures and water shows the restaurants and cafes here are open late into the night. rome is also busy during the day as thousands of visit. take in its rich history.
12:45 pm
so back in the future of the house as we just saw in that last report the piazza navona is a super popular tourist destination but since you're a true roman what place would you recommend for a tourist to experience the real world well never have enough or grown i love my secret so much so i'd like to be a tourist forever in my seat and i still get lost sometimes because you know the center of the city is so. so mazing and every time i look out i see in the paper that i've missed you know it in my previous four so one of my favorite part is they cut the cutting square where we stored how i could have been out by design by anything and there are a few secrets in that that player actually to walk through this player behind the beautiful statue of marcus so radius so you can see a wonderful terrace on the forum sometimes you know walking through the farms is
12:46 pm
very crowded you can just go on the terrace which is right behind the statue and you can get one of the most beautiful c. units of the farm and they're going to see you and then you can walk back to them and say cookie codine which are not so seen and you can find some amazing pieces in there now venice is also a huge tourist magnet and also a city that your family is closely connected with why is back i love that it's so much i used to live there indication when i was a child with my grandparents my parents and it was like being in a parallel with mine and it will be gone the love and the water and the car are still making any stiring for me i think the water it's a very creative adamant because you can move things and he gives a different perspective and i like the museum and i love the ancient carnac and then blew up the contemporary art my house and then he says close to the guggenheim museum and every time i go and visit it i take some great inspiration back with me i want to turn our attention a little bit to. fabrics you know venice is well known for the art of silk and
12:47 pm
velvet weaving which dates back centuries but when you look at to date how hard or easy is it for you to find good seamstresses well i would share a secret with you when i lost my mother in law seventeen the first thing they did was hire a new seamstresses because i believe they needed patents you know class is made of breakeven is made of numbers is made of marketing and managers but most of all is made of hands is made of every day's work is made of seachange so i found three amazing women in rome and i had them immediately and that made me feel stronger and gave me the chance to share beauty. now in terms of fabrics where do you normally go shopping for your fabrics for the clothes well you do buy and mainly kind of fabrics but as you know my mother was the first italian designer to do a fashion show in china in one thousand nine hundred eight it was very early but then you know now that everybody goes to time they have been programmed by the one
12:48 pm
thing i think it was pretty early and she was invited by the minister of close air so we do still buy a lot of kashmir from china the new york times named the queen of kashmir because she had the new contemporary approach and i love passionate because it's great for a woman that is sort of traveling like me and where we are in the daytime and in the evening. that we've been there so supply for centuries of clothing and fabrics for no men and churchmen alike we want to take a look at some of the factories that still remain today. the tourists who flock to venice normally come to see the most famous sights. but there are quieter corners where you will find phoenicians displaying centuries old handicrafts. some of the small shops around the caligula but take house genuine treasures. damask and hand printed fabrics. or unusual accessories made of costly hand-woven scraps.
12:49 pm
they were barely revisit keep an archive of historical fabrics they date back to the golden age of silk weaving in sixteenth century venice. the luigi bevilacqua weavers give some idea of what it must've looked like back then. they were a three hundred year old pedal driven luminous the exclusive delegates can only be achieved by hand at the race of about thirty centimeters a day. they're sent all over the world gracing interiors from the white house to the kremlin in moscow. and fashion designers turn them into. the women here are weaving red silk velvet to be used in the restoration of the royal palace interest in.
12:50 pm
what's known as stockbroker it was invented here in venice. it's made up of several layers of fabric to create a relief like a fact. and at the same time with changing colors. another hidden treasure is the palace of fortune now a museum in what was the private residence of spanish textile artist and art nouveau painter marianna for to me from eight hundred ninety two. he also developed new photography techniques and design stage sets having fifty inventions patented including printing processes that remain a trade secret to this day. marianna fortini gained fame for his process for producing is shipley say his wife henrietta hughes did in the early twentieth
12:51 pm
century to create the iconic delphos gown. the production was done on cylindrical rollers to make that not only gave the fabric in a vertical aplysia. but also its horizontal crimping. that a lens in the dress and a greater allure. that. only a few steps further on is the last in each opera one of the world's finest opera houses it took several years of work to repair the damage caused by a major fire in one thousand nine hundred six the gold plated decoration in the rico theatre hall is true to the original. even the exquisite curtain is a perfect copy of the original it was recreated by the b.h. as he fashion house and donated to the opera to the delight of tourists and
12:52 pm
venetians alike. so as we heard in the last report your family made a fairly large donation gift to the city of venice tell us more about that relationship but as i told you before where i was loved and so much such a beautiful city and at the same time it's so far dial. and i feel as any taliban that have to protect some so going back to did a nation in one thousand nine hundred six my father passed away unfortunately he was amazing and young he was only fifty nine and that's the same year when the theater left in each hand was born belongs to the world everybody has been i mean everybody went to venice the scene the wonderful place mother and i decided to donate the cars because we believe that's a wonderful sign of life when the curtain goes up this shows starts you know the shows begins the magic comes to you and the energy so we figured out that was a way to keep life carrying on. now you said you're a huge fan of the theater any genre particularly well i love italian opera i love
12:53 pm
music in general it's so inspiring for me and it's so emotional i do need emotions to be creative being creative you know in the stage and since your family is so connected to the theater do you also get inspiration from the costumes that you might even see in venice especially because they're known for their balls in the costumes well i'm fascinated like a child you know every time they go to the their own forts and i said oh not that much time to go but i love to watch it on you tube sometimes as well when in the some wonderful play and fascinated like a child by damn mazing work and we spoke about seamstress says and there are so much you know so much leave me of the behind if you tear costume and it's very interesting for me to look at now if you weren't a fashion designer and busy ten hour working days in if you were to slip into a role on the theater this stage where would it be well first of all they could never be so bad at me but i do love to dance i take dance lessons that's one of my
12:54 pm
