An unadulterated scenery along with the tranquil ambience of Portofino provided the perfect setting to shoot our Resort 2020 Collection. As a former designer swimwear model who lived and worked in Italy for many years, Melissa’s creativity and mastery is rooted in this alluring place so it’s also a delight to refresh the connection.
