The news section is marked by the strapline: “We will embrace again” and examines the issues currently facing the world: doctors and nurses are celebrated, while well-known entrepreneurs and authoritative voices discuss how to rebuild the country.

The writer Luca Bianchini appreciates a rediscovered slowness, writer Camilla Baresani talks about the moment when we understood that alone we are nothing alone and that we can only face these difficulties together.

But Grazia è is also fashion: 100 exclusive pages to make you dream and relax, and a shooting produced by Grazia China dedicated to Italy with the hope that we will soon be able to overcome the emergency.

And, of course, a section dedicated to beauty: pages full of advice on how to always treat yourself well and choose the right products suitable for all types of women.

Grazia: Silvia Grilli selects Chiara Ferragni as guest editor for an issue

A special issue focusing on female talent and women to be inspired by
The passions, fashion, commitment and film of the world’s most followed digital entrepreneur

Silvia Grilli, editor of Grazia – the leading 100% Italian fashion brand present around the world with 20 international editions – has selected Chiara Ferragni as guest editor of the new issue of Grazia dedicated to female power and talent, on newsstands from Thursday 29 August. The world’s most followed female digital entrepreneur will also be the protagonist of the cover stories of Grazia in the UK, Germany, Holland, the Middle East and Russia.

For the first time in the role of guest editor, Chiara Ferragni, who is also the subject of the documentary Chiara Ferragni – Unposted, which will be presented on 4 September at the Venice Film Festival, has worked together with the editor Silvia Grilli on the creation of the issue: from the fashion pages, in which she also poses for the photographer Yu Tsai in a shooting in Los Angeles, to interviews, news and current affairs features, as well as the beauty and travel sections, with an open and inclusive approach to the latest trends.

«For some time Grazia under my editorship has had a special relationship with female digital entrepreneurs. We were the first to launch a team of influencers when the fashion establishment had not yet understood their significance. We were also the first to organise – along with Chiara Ferragni’s The Blonde Salad – an exhibition on the revolution provoked by street style in the world of fashion,» explained Grazia editor Silvia Grilli. «I have a long-standing and consolidated relationship with Chiara so, to coincide with the presentation of the documentary film about her life at the Venice Film Festival, I asked her to work with us as guest editor on a special issue, and she enthusiastically accepted. So here we are with this special edition of Grazia dedicated to women with power, features on the most pressing issues of the moment and, of course, Chiara’s world: her passions, her fashion, her commitment and, also, the film about her life. We have also involved five other international editions of the magazine who have joined us on this adventure.»

«When Silvia Grilli, the editor who first believed in me and put me on the cover five years ago – the realisation of a dream – asked me to be the guest editor of an issue, I wasn’t sure I would be up to the task. So we worked together on this issue to remind everyone to follow their dreams, also, even especially, when they fly in the face of other people’s judgements. And for me this has been another dream come true,» declared Chiara Ferragni.

A collector’s issue, of more than 200 pages, that pays homage to the talent, ambition and style of women through portraits of special women to be inspired by, and presented in the words of exceptional reporters, starting with Chiara Ferragni herself, interviewed by Teresa Ciabatti, along with other outstanding figures such as Facebook chief operating officer Sheryl Sandberg, television host, actress and producer Oprah Winfrey, the creative director of Dior Maria Grazia Chiuri, Italian astronaut Samantha Cristoforetti, the artistic director of Givenchy Clare Waight Keller, and actress Margot Robbie.

The features of the week also include a special on digital bullying, an issue to which both Silvia Grilli and Chiara Ferragni are particularly committed, and a survey on how our diet will change in the future, due to new technologies and environmental sustainability.

The new issue of Grazia also gives space to Chiara Ferragni’s passions, objects of desire and favourite places, which she has selected for readers from among her most loved places in Milan, Los Angeles, Paris and London. There will, of course, also be beauty advice, with a feature on highlighters, one of Chiara’s cosmetic passions, and a classification of the latest red carpet looks, commented on by Chiara Ferragni herself.

The special issue has attracted great interest also in terms of advertising sales as this editorial initiative has been well received by a number of clients resulting in revenues that have almost tripled.

This four-handed project has made it possible to bring together the values that Grazia has championed for more than 80 years, accompanying generations of women with a unique formula that combines fashion, news and current affairs, which has consequently cemented the privileged relationship that the brand has always had with the digital world, social media and fashion influencers, now a fundamental element of the fashion system.

The “Grazia Creative Lab with Riccardo Ruini”

Grazia, the leading 100% Italian fashion magazine, with 20 editions around the world, is contributing its 80 years of experience in the fashion sector to a new project developed in collaboration with Riccardo Ruini, the creative director of numerous campaigns for some of the most prestigious international brands. The project, which is called Grazia Creative Lab with Riccardo Ruini, will be a laboratory for the production of communication content in the service of fashion and luxury brands.

Grazia Creative Lab with Riccardo Ruini will offer companies creative solutions for advertising campaigns that can run across different media.

“With Grazia Creative Lab we want to provide companies with content that is able to excite and enthuse people, our extensive knowledge of readers, celebrities, models, photographers and the privileged relationship we have developed with them. With our accumulated experience and the speed with that characterises us, we can construct content to match the needs of companies,” declared Silvia Grilli, editor of Grazia.

Grazia Creative Lab is the result of a desire to satisfy the needs that many brands have today to communicate in  a complete, rapid and effective way with a formula that is economically manageable. My task will be to ensure quality and innovation, precisely in the way that great chefs develop collaborations between brands and talent,”  declared Riccardo Ruini, creative director.

The project will also enhance the Grazia Italia system,  a dynamic, contemporary communication platform, with a magazine with 805,797 readers, up 9% since the last survey (Source: Audipress 2018/III), the web site Grazia.it, with a monthly average of 3.1 million unique users (Source: Audiweb December 2018), its social channels, which reach of 10 million users (Source: Facebook Insight February 2019), special events, the Influencer Factory, and now also creative agency.

Evolution has always been a characteristic of the Mondadori Group brand, which, over its 80-year history, has distinguished itself for its ability to perfectly capture and reflect the essence of the times. It anticipated the revolution of social media and the role of fashion influencers, now fundamental components of the fashion system. And it has won over a new generation of readers, also through its timely and authoritative news coverage, providing space for investigative journalism, without fear of swimming against the tide. All of this has made it possible to reinforce the link between its community of readers and the world of fashion and beauty that revolves around the magazine.

Grazia Creative Lab with Riccardo Ruini was presented today by the editor of Grazia Silvia Grilli, the general manager of Magazines Italy of the Mondadori Group Carlo Mandelli and the creative director Riccardo Ruini, with a roundtable discussion about the creative process, the new codes of communication and the role of endorsers, with observations from the chef Andrea Berton, a Grazia contributor, who talked about the creative side of being a great chef, and the showgirl Melissa Satta, who spoke of her experience as the face of a number of advertising campaigns and the evolution of image.

Grazia presents Future – Made in Grazia, new collectors’ edition

Grazia, the Mondadori Group weekly edited by Silvia Grilli and point of reference for fashion and a voice for news-related issues, presents Future – Made in Grazia, a collectors’ edition entirely dedicated to the future: what fashion, art, design, technology, architecture has in store for us, and the new scenarios that characterise all aspects of our lives.

After having celebrated Italian talent and beauty in the previous collectors’ issue, this new special  edition looks at the future through the words and images of some of the most innovative, experimental and visionary protagonists. A splendid coffee table book, in Italian and English, available from newsstands and selected bookshops from 19 February in Italy, in major European capitals and in New York.

“The world around us has changed very rapidly,” observes Silvia Grilli in her editorial. “We are both players and spectators of the digital revolution that is transforming our lives. Human intelligence is no longer exclusive and is ceding space to artificial intelligence. Female and male are losing their monopoly as non-binary emerges, the third sex option already on enrolment forms in American schools allowing non-binary people who do not identify as female or male, or feel that they are a combination of both.”

But that’s not all. Beauty, also for models, will increasingly be less a question of proportions and much more to do with commitment and activism, as discussed by two protagonist like Ruth Bell and Nicole Atieno. Women will finally have to claim full autonomy, as the great Serbian artist Marina Abramovic says. Meanwhile, the cinema will increasingly engage with civil rights issues, as the Oscar-winning director Barry Jenkins suggests. And a new ecological consciousness will develop through brand new projects to protect the environment, as the environmental artist  Anne de Carbuccia  explains in her intense reportage.

Also the spaces and objects of our life will change. As Carlo Ratti, one of the great scholars of innovation as applied to urban spaces explains, the ideal city will be one where allotments and gardens will replace car parks. Design materials will be cultivated as living organisms and no longer as industrial products, as the international designer Patricia Urquiola shows. While art will explore the imaginations of black artists, of all genders, that until now have not received the recognition they deserve, as can be seen from the work of painter Elizabeth Colomba.

But what are we to do with all this future? Will we be able to handle our second identities constructed for the digital communities where we have found an escape from routine? What will happen to our data, our videos, our photos, all of which will remain forever in the endless ocean of the web? Will we be able to control artificial intelligence? And where will the new limits be in a real world that wants to erect walls but on the web knows no frontiers?

These and other questions are addressed by the protagonists of Future – Made in Grazia, with stories, interviews and stunning images able to give us an advance peek at the great revolutions of a future that is very near and affects us all.

Published in Italy since 1938, Grazia is today the only  100% Italian fashion magazine distributed around the world, from France to Great Britain, and from Mexico to China and Australia. It is a brand that has managed to accompany generations of women thanks to a unique formula that combines  fashion, beauty and current affairs. News, investigations and background on issues of the greatest interest, along with exclusive features, a visionary style in the shots of great photographers and interviews with world-famous personalities, thanks to an ongoing dialogue with major players on the international scene and a privileged relationship with celebrities, top models and designers.
