About Us
For the last twenty years my career as a designer in the fashion industry has taken me everywhere from Los Angeles to New York, Hong Kong to London, Paris to Berlin…but my heart stays in Italy.
Wandering the cobblestone streets, palazzos, museums and countryside, enjoying the delectable gelatos, white truffle pasta and local Chianti, spending endless hours in tapestry and pottery shops, soaking up the flavor of “La Dolce Vita”, my love and appreciation of Italy continues to grow.
It was this love for Italy’s opulence, beauty and sophisticated style that inspired me to look for ways to share my passion with others.
After several years of attending wedding showers, birthdays, baby showers and numerous occasions of celebration, I realized I was always searching for that perfect gift ~ one that meant something.
A-ha! I would create a line of fabulous products that could be gifts for most any occasion ~ but not just ordinary gifts. My products would be beautifully packaged, wonderful quality and be inspired by Italy. I wrapped this all up into the iconic idea of the Italian Diva…but a sweet diva, not a self-absorbed one!
La Dolce Diva was born.
The Dolce Divina, Bella Divina and Cucina Divina Collections reflect my personal love of Italy, They are meant to whisk you away to a charming Roman café or a Florentine garden ~ if only in your mind ~ while still reminding you that friendship is what truly defines the sweet life.
