Italian citizenship
Italian voters have failed to back a landmark citizenship reform in a closely-watched national referendum. Share your reaction and how the result affects you.
A reform that would have cut the waiting time to become eligible for Italian citizenship via residency (also known as naturalisation) from the current ten years down to five has failed after voter turnout in a closely-watched referendum fell short of the required threshold.

Fear of God recruits Catherine Jacquet as director of operations
Fear of God takes on a French accent. Last September, the Californian menswear brand, a blend of tailoring and streetwear inspirations, popular with American music and basketball stars, recruited the former General Manager of Jacquemus, Rabanne and Lemaire, Bastien Daguzan. He brings his expertise with the aim of reinforcing founder Jerry Lorenzo's creative vision and structuring the brand for the long term. To achieve this, the CEO called on an expert in the premium and luxury sectors: Catherine Jacquet. General manager of Maison Michel, a milliner part of the Chanel galaxy, between 2014 and 2018, general manager of the high-end Parisian brand Lemaire from 2019 to 2022 and having advised numerous premium brands and designers on their structuring, the executive has been supporting the brand since the beginning of the year and has been appointed Director of Operations. Fear of God, founded in 2013, currently relies on a main line in which beautiful sleeved pieces combine with ample suits in Italian fabrics and rub shoulders with denim and knitwear, with a more casual spirit. The brand also offers a second line, christened "Essentials," composed of more accessible basics with T-shirts and hoodies, mostly plain. In fact, it was around a collaboration between the NBA and this line initiated in 2018 that the label, which is said to generate sales of between 150 and 200 million euros, was present in Paris during the last Men's Fashion Week. The brand has also signed an agreement with Adidas for the development of a technical line, with sneaker launches starting in 2021. With a presence in over a hundred retailers, the brand has also grown in department store networks, notably with corners at Nordstrom and Selfridges. The brand, whose primary markets are the United States and Great Britain, is increasingly taking care of its image. It has asserted its premium positioning with Zegna. And it plays on the fluidity of its wardrobe, dressing more and more women in its campaigns with its pieces exploited for oversize silhouettes.

After a flawless fortnight in Paris, Sinner's eye-catching run at French Open ends in heartbreak
After a flawless fortnight in Paris, Jannik Sinner was on the brink of capturing his first French Open title on Sunday after a dominant run on the clay courts of Roland-Garros. Facing defending champion Carlos Alcaraz, the top-ranked Italian was firmly in control. Sinner's deep groundstrokes, excellent service, heavy top spin, and subtle variations had worn down Alcaraz, who found himself 5-3 down and trailing 0-40 in the fourth set, and facing three match points. At that moment, it felt like the best of all possible worlds for the 23-year-old Sinner. But then the momentum swung. Alcaraz fought back, saved the first match point when Sinner sent a forehand long. On the second, Sinner missed a return. The third ended with Alcaraz winning a short baseline exchange. Sinner had just let his chance slip away. From there, Alcaraz produced one of the greatest comeback in Roland-Garros history to win the longest final ever played on the Parisian dirt — 5 hours and 29 minutes — 4-6, 6-7 (4), 6-4, 7-6 (3), 7-6 (10-2). 'It's an amazing trophy, so I won't sleep tonight very well, but it's okay,' Sinner said during the trophy ceremony. There is hardly anything between the two best players in tennis at the moment, who have now combined to win the last six Grand Slam titles and appear poised to build one of the sport's most compelling rivalries in the years ahead. Sunday's duel delivered a match of rare intensity, filled with punishing baseline rallies, exquisite drop shots, and brilliant passing shots — thrilling a packed Court Philippe-Chatrier. Reflecting on the match in his post-final press conference, Sinner tried to draw positives from a devastating loss. 'Obviously, this one hurts,' he said. 'There's not so much to say right now. But again, I'm happy with how we're trying to improve every day and put myself in these kinds of positions. It was a very high-level match, that's for sure. I'm happy to be part of it. But yeah, the final result hurts.' It was a particularly tough ending for Sinner, who had not dropped a set on his way to the final, including a dominant semifinal win over three-time French Open champion Novak Djokovic. Before facing Alcaraz, Sinner had never lost a Grand Slam final, winning his first three. A victory would have made him just the fifth man in the Open Era to win three consecutive major titles. 'I'm pretty sure you are going to be a champion, not once but many, many times,' Alcaraz told him during the trophy ceremony. 'It is a privilege to share the court with you in every tournament, making history with you.' Sinner, who will remain world No. 1, said he'll lean on his family and loved ones to recover from the loss. 'Now it's my time to take something from the close people I have,' he said. 'As I've always said, before my career started, I never would've imagined finding myself in this position. It wasn't even a dream because it felt so far away — I wasn't even thinking about it. Now I find myself here, playing the longest final in the history of Roland-Garros. It hurts, yes, but on the other hand, you can't go on crying.'
