There are trips that are about discovering new places, and then there are journeys that are about discovering a new way of being. Made in Italy – A Style Immersion Retreat is the latter. This is not a fashion trip that is only centered around shopping and clothes. It is an invitation to slow down, to observe, and to reconnect with style as something lived rather than displayed.
In Italy, style has never been just about appearance. It is a way of moving through the world with intention, respect for beauty, and attention to detail. This retreat was created to bring style back to its essence: not something to prove, but something to embody.
A Journey Shaped by Marisol Colette
At the heart of this experience is Marisol Colette. More than the destinations themselves, it is her work and her presence that make this journey what it is. Marisol’s approach to style is deeply personal and transformative. Her methods are not just about how to dress better, but how to feel more aligned, more authentic, and more at home in one’s own skin.
With her, style becomes a language of self-awareness, a way to listen inwardly and express what is already true. This is what makes this retreat so special: being guided by someone who sees style not as an image to construct, but as a truth to uncover.
Style as Presence, Not Performance
In Marisol’s work, style is never separated from inner life. It is not about trends or rules, but about presence. During the retreat, participants are invited to explore their relationship with image, identity, and self-expression. Clothing becomes a tool for authentic self-expression rather than a mask. Style becomes something that flows naturally from self-connection, not something imposed from the outside. This process creates space to let go of what no longer resonates and make room for what feels real, grounded, and honest.
The Retreat Experience: Dates, Destinations, and a Shared Rhythm
Made in Italy – A Style Immersion Retreat takes place over eight days, from April 18 to April 25, 2026, and is intentionally limited to a maximum of 12 participants. This small group size ensures a personal, intimate experience, allowing each participant to engage fully with Marisol’s guidance and the surroundings.
The retreat is designed for those who value presence, meaningful connection, and the space to reflect and integrate at their own pace. With a balanced rhythm of guided sessions, immersive exploration, and moments of rest, the journey unfolds organically, offering the perfect environment for self-discovery and authentic connection with both the Italian landscape and fellow participants.
An Experiential Journey Through Italy
Italy is not just the setting for this retreat, it is an active part of the experience. Few places in the world express style so effortlessly in everyday life. From the way food is prepared to how spaces are curated and time is respected, Italy teaches beauty through simplicity and intention.
This experiential journey through Italy is designed to support the inner work guided by Marisol, offering experiences that encourage reflection, observation, and presence. Here, style is inseparable from how one lives, walks, eats, and relates to the world.
Milan, Florence, and Val d’Orcia: Three Expressions of Style
Milan represents intention and precision. It is where style is shaped through discipline, craftsmanship, and coherence. Here, beauty emerges from respect for process and quality. Florence introduces another dimension: memory and continuity.
Style becomes heritage, responsibility, and dialogue between past and present. It is a reminder that beauty is something to be preserved, not consumed. Val d’Orcia brings everything back to simplicity. In its open landscapes and quiet rhythms, style becomes essential, stripped of excess. It is the space where integration happens, where what has been discovered inwardly can settle and take root.
Made in Italy as an Inner Philosophy
In everyday language, “Made in Italy” is a label that represents excellence. In this retreat, it becomes a way of being. It is the choice of depth over surface, quality over quantity, presence over speed. It mirrors Marisol’s own philosophy: style that does not seek attention, but expresses truth. Style that is lived, not performed. Style that is felt before it is seen.
Life Beyond the Room: Travel as Transformation
Life Beyond the Room creates journeys that go beyond sightseeing. Its vision is that travel should prompt reflection, not just add destinations to a list. Made in Italy – A Style Immersion Retreat is a perfect expression of this philosophy, born from the meeting between Marisol Colette’s work and Italy’s natural elegance. It is not a journey measured by what is photographed, but by what is felt and integrated. Because authentic style is not something we build. It is something we remember.
