Dear Customers,
Juliette on Pantelleria
Some places leave a lasting impression.
For curator and art historian Fanny, Pantelleria is one such place. Drawn to destinations where art, design, and culinary delights naturally converge, she spent her days exploring the volcanic island, its unique landscape, and its slow pace of life.
She was accompanied by our Juliette dress in Pearl Grey – a dress for special summer moments, festive occasions, and travels near or far. Elegant yet uncomplicated, Juliette is made for all those moments that linger in memory: an al-fresco dinner, a celebration with friends, or the discovery of a new place.
Through Fanny's Eyes
A particular highlight of her trip was her stay at Parco dei Sesi, an agriturismo that had long been on her wish list.
What excites her about it is the special combination of art, architecture, and hospitality. Once run by two artists and now carefully continued by the next generation, small artistic traces and details can be found throughout the entire estate. Artworks appear in unexpected places, creating a silent dialogue between nature, design, and everyday life.
Traveling outside of peak season also allowed Fanny to experience the island's quieter side – with moments of stillness and a unique vastness that made her stay all the more impactful.
Fanny's Pantelleria Tips
We asked Fanny for some of her personal recommendations:
Accommodation
Parco dei Sesi
Amidst artworks, Mediterranean nature, and peaceful retreats, a very special charm unfolds, making the stay unforgettable.
For a special meal
Amunì – La Cucina di Parco dei Sesi
A place that combines everything I love about Italy: honest cuisine, great ingredients, and a relaxed atmosphere. The restaurant at Parco dei Sesi serves seasonal dishes, inspired by Sicilian family traditions and the island's produce. I particularly remember the homemade specialties – simple, authentic, and full of flavor.
Don't miss
Laghetto delle Ondine
One of the island's most beautiful swimming coves. The path leads over rocks – sturdy footwear is recommended.
For sunset
Faro di Punta Spadillo
A wonderful place to end the day and watch the sun set over the sea.
For a glass of wine
Abbazia San Giorgio "Orange" Bianco Terre Siciliane
Fanny's recommendation for a relaxed evening aperitivo.
For the curious
