Mario Casilli by Peter Doggett, with a foreword by the glamorous Joan Collins, is a dazzling tribute to the photographer who defined the glitz, glitter, and unapologetic excess of the 1980s. Casilli’s lens immortalized the era’s icons—Joan Collins dripping in jewels, Dolly Parton in full bombshell glory, the Bee Gees in leather and attitude—and entire casts of shows like Dynasty, Dallas, Knight Rider, and Miami Vice. His trademark backlighting, radiant color palette, and meticulous composition made every image shimmer with Hollywood magic.

This coffee table volume celebrates Casilli’s mastery with over 100 lush color photographs, a sharp essay on 1980s style by June Marsh, and Doggett’s insightful text that places Casilli’s work in its cultural context. More than just a book of portraits, Mario Casilli is a time capsule of fame, fashion, and fantasy—a glossy love letter to an outrageous decade when celebrity reigned supreme and every frame was pure spectacle.
