Florence wasn't built in a day.

Hello! August has arrived so quickly! I'd like to share a letter with you all from our very own CHALIE, who travels all over the world!


Hey everyone! How are you all doing? It's the height of summer in Japan right now. Take care of your health and enjoy a hot summer that will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience for each of you, just like my father and I did.

Right now, the annual PITTI trade fair is being held at Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building . I heard that items related to Italy, the city I visit most often, are being featured at Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building , and I wanted to introduce some of my favorite items, but unfortunately, my schedule doesn't allow me to stop by Japan.

So, in my gallery, my partner and friend, Mr. O, a buyer at Isetan, introduces shops he visits when he's on business trips and his recommended items, using a map of Florence, Italy as a metaphor. It's a really interesting idea, isn't it?

I hope everyone doesn't miss out on this festival and gets to experience the fun, beauty, and fashionable charm of Italy and Pitti Uomo.
――――CHALIE VICE

This was a great opportunity for her to introduce her beloved Italy to everyone, but it seems she got so caught up in her vacation that she missed her flight... I wish she would drop by the office once in a while and tell us about what happened on her travels and what her friends were up to.

Now, continuing from last week, THE GALLERY by CHALIE VICE features a large map of favorite places that a buyer from Isetan Men's Residence, who is also a friend of CHALIE VICE, always visits when he goes to Italy for Pitti Uomo.

Continuing from last time, I'd like to introduce some items that I couldn't cover here.
First up are leather goods from PERONI, a factory brand located near Florence, Italy.


Wallet 24,840 yen
Card case: 19,440 yen
Coin case 11,880 yen

Peroni is a leather goods brand founded in 1956, known as a family workshop that also operates as a craftsman carrying on historical handcrafting techniques. Currently, they continue to create meticulously crafted leather goods in a small workshop in Campo Marte, a working-class town in Italy.
These leather accessories are designed to allow you to enjoy the aging process of the leather the more you use them.

This original item by CHALIE VICE is made in his signature colors of navy and red. The unusual color combination sets it apart from others and makes leather goods truly special.

Next, I'd like to introduce Santa Maria Novella .

1. Armenian paper (paper incense) 4,104 yen
2. Terracotta Potpourri Pot 20g 6,048 yen
3. Eau de Cologne 100ml 17,280 yen
4. Shaving Foam 300ml 4,104 yen
5. Maggio Water 250ml 3,780 yen
Founded in 1612 as an annex to the Dominican monastery, Santa Maria Novella 's healing products, made from high-quality, naturally cultivated herbs and oils, have a long history intertwined with European history, and were favored by the Medici family, Napoleon, and royalty.

Santa Maria Novella , with its gentle fragrance made from natural ingredients, is something CHALIE not only uses herself, but also makes a point of subtly giving as a gift to women she's interested in.

CHALIE and the residence buyer's travels through Italy will be featured until August 8th (Tuesday). Please come and experience the atmosphere of Italy at THE GALLERY by CHALIE VICE!
