Rome: For five generations the Gam- marellis have dressed and shod the Vicar of Christ through their family business, Rome’s historic Ditta An- nibale Gammarelli.

Now, after the recent death of man- ager Annibale Gammeralli, the busi- ness will pass to the hands of the sixth generation.

Established in 1798 by Giovanni An- tonio Gammarelli, the “Ditta” was founded under Pius VI as a tailor for the Roman clergy. After Giovan- ni died, management of the shop passed to his son Filippo, and then to Filippo’s son Annibale.
