Monica Bellucci and Dolce&Gabbana share a profound and unbreakable bond. Their first meeting occurred at a casting for a fashion show, where it was love at first sight.
Since then, Monica Bellucci has served as a continuous source of inspiration for the designers, who now pay tribute to her quintessential Italian sensuality, beauty, and charisma in this volume.
“Monica did not charm us solely by her typically Italian beauty and sensuality, but also for her charisma. She knows how to be both tough and sweet. It is perhaps in this mingling of opposites that the secret of her magic lies.”
Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana
Beyond being an icon of femininity, Monica Bellucci represents the very essence of the Dolce Vita for Dolce&Gabbana. This book, reminiscent of a black-and-white film, tells the story of a diva and her distinctive style.
“With Domenico and Stefano, I always had the feeling that fashion tended towards art…I was there to incarnate an imaginary world.”

The volume has been curated by two highly esteemed figures: Babeth Djian, editor of the renowned French magazine Numéro, and celebrated photographer Jean-Baptiste Mondino, who has produced twelve exclusive portraits of Monica Bellucci, adding a sophisticated aesthetic and striking visual impact to the book.
In addition to these portraits, the book features iconic advertising campaigns, exclusive interviews with the designers who have shaped the actress’s celebrated image, and an intimate dialogue with director Giuseppe Tornatore, offering unique insights into Monica’s connections with the realms of cinema and fashion.
