Gente

Top choice in Tridente, Trevi & the Quirinale


This multilabel boutique was the first in Rome to bring all the big-name luxury designers – Italian, French and otherwise – under one roof and its vast emporium-styled space remains an essential stop for every serious fashionista. Labels include Dolce & Gabbana, Prada, Alexander McQueen, Sergio Rossi and Missoni.

Gente's accessories store is next door, at No 78, and its men's store is on the opposite side of the road, at Via Babuino 185-192.
