The Ambience of Rome - Richa Maria Kurien

During our first walk in Rome to restaurant which seemed like an eternity to a bunch of hungry, jet-lagged students, I found as much as we wanted that pizza, we were all mesmerised by the beautifully lit up streets of Rome (i.e. stopping several times for photographs and instagram posts).  Whether the soft light be from a dinner table candle or reflecting of a sculpture from Trevi fountain, the atmospheric lighting enhanced Rome’s exquisite and romantic aura.


 On our visit to Fendi, I noticed how the brand transferred and adapted such lighting to the store, which effectively emphasised its heritage and luxurious brand image. Fendi’s products such as their fur coats and handbags, were all beautifully crafted and it was a great privilege to be shown them by Fendi’s Head PR. Some were even lucky enough to try Fendi fur on, making the visit feel all the more welcoming and exclusive. A highlight from the trip was definitely the breath taking view from Fendi’s helicopter landing pad. A sea of amber buildings surrounded every angle in sight, as did our cameras. Overall, Rome had such a majestic quality, that it’s no wonder so much art and fashion has bloomed from it.
