NICHE style Summer 2016

For the next decade, Loren travelled back and
forth from America to her beloved home in
Italy to complete projects on multiple films.
During these years, she was rewarded for her
contribution to the movie industry with an Oscar
nomination and five Golden Globe Awards.
Throughout the 1980’s, Loren appeared in
only a handful of movies as she focused on
raising her two sons, Carlo Jr. and Edoardo.
Loren also successfully made the transition into
becoming a creative entrepreneur and being the
first actress to launch a signature fragrance line as
well as a popular collection of designer eyewear.
Loren made a comeback into the
film industry after her mother
had passed in 1991 of cancer.
Making appearances in mainstream comedies
like the 1995 hit comedy with Walter Mattau and
Jack Lemmon, Grumpier Old Men, as well as art
house films, Loren has spanned a career over six
decades and remains one of the most recognizable
figures in the international film industry.
Loren’s husband, Carlo Ponti died in 2007 at age
94, and Loren mourned his loss for a few years
before returning to the spotlight to star opposite
Daniel Day-Lewis in the 2009 musical Nine
Loren now divides her time between
Switzerland and Los Angeles where she
can be close to her two sons and live a low
profile lifestyle. Making occasional red
carpet appearances, Loren is still
seen wearing her signature eye
makeup and bombshell curls.
“BEAUTY IS HOW YOU FEEL INSIDE,
AND IT REFLECTS IN YOUR EYES. IT
IS NOT SOMETHING PHYSICAL.”
