Collette Dinnigan 🌺

Her style is one of simple yet sophisticated

beauty. Bellissima: An Australian–Italian

Affair takes you into Collette’s world of

beauty – interiors, gardens, food, friends,

curiosities, art and travel – in Italy and

Australia. It shows us Collette’s remarkable

eye for detail, vignettes, texture and colour.

She shares her design inspiration and

reveals stunning photos never before

published of her homes in Bowral and

Darling Point, along with a Rome apartment

and holiday house in Puglia.

Collette and

her photographer, Earl Carter, travelled the

length of Italy, from Naples to Turin, to

capture the essence of what inspires

Collette that she then brings home to

Australia, the ‘great Southern light’

.

Collette not only takes us into her own

private worlds but also those of her friends

such as Mimi Thorisson in Turin, Neil Perry

in Sydney, and Louise Olsen and Luke

Sciberras in country NSW, where they

share their recipes and art.

This is a book of inspiration and delight, a

joyous journey of creativity with one of

Australia’s foremost fashion designers. Full

of glorious imagery, it is a must-have book

for those who love travel and interiors.
