Enzina Fuschini is an Italian designer and artist, working and living in the UK.

During her period in Paris, Fuschini started to participate in numerous exhibitions.[1] Several of works realised during this period were acquired by American collectors. She was responsible for a new current in art, the <<Sincérism>>, a term already coined by Prof. Gian Giacomo Migone an expression of personal impulses and freedom, more than external influences.[2][3][4]

She started to develop her own commercial brands in design, and regularly worked for Liberty’s, Harvey Nicholls, Beals (Bournemouth) and Harrods (London).[5][6] Her designs appeared on amongst other fabrics, furniture and fine porcelain.[7][8][9][10][11][12] She was active in numerous charity initiatives during her exhibitions and events.[13][14][15][16][17]

Her house and Studio in Dorset ("The Lighthouse" on 48 Banks Road in Poole) became a popular cult feature and subject of numerous articles in designer magazines as an example of specific modern artistic interior design, showing examples of her work and the styles she had developed through her brands.[18][19]

At the Truly British Event at the London's Harrods Store on 6 May 2005[5] Fuschini's brand "Darlings" was launched and she became acquainted with the Egyptian businessman Mohamed Abdel Moneim Al-Fayed, after which a long and durable friendship developed with the Al-Fayed family.

This was actually correctly cited by The Guardian on the 17 February 2009, which reported that Rafferty was in hiding in the south of England, being cared for by a friend. [20] During 2009, Fuschini physically cared for the singer and tried to help him overcome his alcoholism. They went on holiday together and Rafferty proposed to Fuschini to marry him at the Ritz Hotel in Paris on Christmas Eve 2009 [21] .[22] Shortley afterwards, on the 2nd of September 2010, Enzina's mother died.

In November 2010, Rafferty was admitted to the Royal Bournemouth Hospital, where he was put on a life-support machine and treated for multi-organ failure. After being taken off life-support, Rafferty went better and it seemed that he might survive and recover from his collapse. According to Fuschini, she was prevented from being at his bedside[22] [23] [24]. His daughter Marta successively brought him to her house in Stroud, Gloucestershire, without admitting Enzina seeing or contacting him. [25] [26]. He died in Stroud on 4 January 2011 aged 63 of liver failure.

Since Rafferties death, a legal issue is raised over his will which was made in March 2007 before he met Enzina Fuschini, and she has launched a High Court battle for a share of his fortune after she was left out of his £1.2 million will [27] [28] [29].

Brand Darlings

The Brand was launched at the Truly British Event at the London's Harrods Store on 6 May 2005.[5] It consists of artwork, porcelain, clothing, furniture, etc. Special well-known pieces are a motorcycle Suzuki Intruder 1800 M, designed in 2007, the centrepiece of an exhibition at the Park Lane Hilton.,[1] a hat displayed on BBC 1 News during Ascot ladies day in 2006, a cigars store case,[30] and Nokia mobile phone design.
