Say the words “fashion” and “Italian” in one sentence and LOCAL Life stylist Roxanne Gilleland is easily inspired.

Versace, Dolce & Gabbana, Gucci, Armani, Ferragamo, Prada … the list of Italian fashion brands is almost endless. The objective of Italian fashion is not to blend in. A quick walk around most Italian cities confirms it. Italian men and women have a unique take on personal style.

They love tailoring, a statement coat, a logo bag, color, prints, layering and leather. Nunzio Restaurant + Bar served as the perfect backdrop to capture all of these Italian elements. Roxanne scoured the racks of local shops and boutiques to create those Italian designer looks right here in the Lowcountry. When mastering your Italian look, throw out the rule book, don’t be afraid to experiment and just have fun.
