Inside is a café, their atelier, and displayed pieces from their latest collection. But De Sole’s favorite part? A Fendi vending machine. “It’s such a new age shopping experience,” she says. “Inside are Fendi-curated guidebooks to Rome, luggage tags, and little kid’s toys.
On her last trip, she fell in love with what she calls his “summer jewels”: elaborate creations made of resin and rope. “He’s quite modern with his pieces,” she says.Photo: Courtesy of Rickie De SoleAcross the street from Salini’s shop on Via di Monserrato is the vibrant store of Soledad Twombly, an Argentina-born designer.
