Véronique Hyland interviews Ceretti in New York at Casa Cipriani at “the moment before sunset, when light bounces off the Hudson River, at such an angle, you might think you’re alongside a Venetian canal.“

Swept into that sensory experience from my 20th floor apartment view in lower Manhattan, the narrative moved boom to the model’s obsession with dentistry. Talk about a smack on my still-in-Venice brain.

Divorced and Dating Leonardo DiCaprio

Reminding us that Vittoria Ceretti is dating Leonardo DiCaprio — which means nothing except that she is dating DiCaprio in this moment — I had to untangle my mind, knowing about DiCaprio but also remembering her June 2020 wedding in Ibiza, Spain. Lulu informed me that Ceretti and Matteo Milleri divorced in June 2023.

Love from Maximilian Davis and Sabato De Sarno

Vittoria Ceretti won an Elite Model Look competition at age 14, based on photos snapped by her cousin of the model-in-waiting, posing on a car in the neighbor’s garage.

Fast forward a decade, and Maximilian Davis, the creative director of Ferragamo, says he considers her “the supermodel of today’s generation.” Sabato De Sarno, the creative director of Gucci, calls her “Sophisticated. Contemporary. Surprising. Vittoria is the Italian who defines our era, between already iconic photographs and a social presence as a true entertainer.”

Vittoria Ceretti on Loving Fashion Weeks

Ceretti tries to take a month off before a month of fashion weeks — in full force right now with Dior lighting the torch in Paris. The supermodel becomes energized just talking about fashion week:

“Don’t get me wrong, I love fashion week. Some girls really don’t like it. Some girls can’t take it. I love it,” she says. “The excitement, seeing different people every day. I love hanging out with the other girls, the designers, the casting directors. There’s something about the energy that you can create when you’re with the designers after they’ve worked on a collection for so many months and you’re finally the one to be able to show it to the world. It’s just a month. Then you go back to normal life.”
