Dolce Vita Ladies Club

Venetian Splendor

exclusive 5-days dolce vita ladies club

exclusive 5-days

This invitation-only experience brought together an intimate circle of remarkable women from around the world for a journey into Venetian craftsmanship, fashion, beauty, and gastronomy.

Our ladies arrived the Venetian way — gliding across the lagoon by private boat, the city unfolding like a dream before them. Their home for the next five days was Palazzina Grassi, Philippe Starck’s iconic boutique hotel: a refined palazzo overlooking the Grand Canal, where Tiffany-blue accents meet timeless Venetian elegance.

As glasses were raised for the first welcome drink, the retreat began exactly as it was meant to — with beauty, anticipation, and the soft magic of Venice at dusk.

our signature EXPERIENCES

dolce vita ladies club

From a private Chanel Beauty workshop to the world of Muschieri perfumes and the iconic glamour of René Caovilla, our days were infused with feminine elegance — intimate encounters with luxury houses where craftsmanship meets confidence, allure, and timeless style.

Beauty & Fashion

We were welcomed behind closed doors into Venice’s most storied ateliers — from centuries-old Bevilacqua textiles to the luminous world of Murano glass at Barovier & Toso — where history, artistry, and savoir-faire are still shaped by hand, just as they have been for generations.

Craft & Heritage

Venice revealed itself through the language of taste: Michelin-starred dinners by candlelight, cicchetti and champagne shared at golden hour, and treasured moments inside historic cafés — culminating in Café Florian’s olfactory ritual, where scent, memory, and ritual intertwined.

My Dear ladies, I just want to say that this has been the most unforgettable trip of my entire life, without exaggeration.  This journey gave me so many emotions that I honestly can’t remember the last time I experienced them in such doses."

-ANDREJA JERAJ

"Thank you for the wonderful retreat in Venice. We experienced things that were truly special. I’m so grateful for all the new connections, the laughter, and the heartfelt conversations we shared. I believe we’ll meet again- this feels like just the beginning."

- TIFFANY FLYNN

"Making lasting connections was such a bonus and probably the best part. Was so wonderful to not have to think about anything and have everything curated specially for us. It was all the things!
