The 19th edition of RomaFashion White convened designers, institutions, and artisans within the Church of San Paolo Entro le Mura in Rome, reinforcing its status as the only national event of its kind hosted in a consecrated place of worship. The gathering emphasized the timeless appeal of sartorial bridal wear and haute couture, blending the solemnity of sacred architecture with Italian craftsmanship.

The event was conceived by fashion producer Antonio Falanga, organized by General Manager Grazia Marino, and produced by Spazio Margutta. Journalist and host Cinzia Malvini guided the proceedings.

Luisa Negro Jewels presented a new collection dedicated to the bridal market on the church’s sacred runway. The brand fused silver with Murano glass, creating sculptural parures that highlighted Venetian tradition alongside innovation.

The fashion segment also featured students from Sitam Lecce Fashion Academy, who showcased talent from Puglia in Rome. Designer Elio Guido returned to the capital to present his new bridal haute couture collection, titled "Eramnesia," focusing on the emotion of memory.

Maison Azzurra Di Lorenzo followed with its Spring/Summer 2027 collection, "Life Cotton Candy." The designs drew inspiration from the colors, lights, and scents of a fairground, offering fluid lines for modern women while maintaining traditional Italian sartorial values.

Emilio Schuberth presented its "IDENTITÀ" collection in the nave. Creative Director Elena Perrella designed ten looks for brides and contemporary couture, reinterpreting the brand’s historical archive with current sensibilities through embroidery and pictorial motifs.

The evening concluded with the presentation of the 2026 RomaFashion Awards, honoring excellence in fashion and national communication.

Stefano Dominella, Ambassador of Made in Italy, received an award for his institutional, academic, and artistic curation work. Guglielmo Nappi, editor-in-chief of Il Messaggero.it, was recognized in the Web Journalism section.

Luxury Files Magazine accepted its award for editorial excellence, with directors Mara Cella and Massimiliano Di Stefano noting over twenty-five years of achievement. Wedding planner Eva Presutti was honored in the Wedding Planner section, while former model turned journalist Francesca Parisella received the Fashion Testimonial award.
