Zana Pali Dazzles in $100K Jewelry Post-Split

Australian favourite Zana Pali has stepped out in serious style, turning heads in  as she marked her first birthday since splitting from husband Gianni Romano.

The former My Kitchen Rules star was spotted on Sunday morning at luxury blow-dry venue Bottega Blowdry, where she spent several hours getting glammed up ahead of her 35th birthday celebrations.

Looking every inch the polished influencer, Zana arrived in a striking gold evening dress that clung to her figure and left little to the imagination as she stepped out of her car and prepared for a day of festivities.

The fitted, shimmering look – paired with an ultra-glam accessories stack – suggested this was no low-key birthday affair.

Zana elevated the outfit with layers of gold and diamond jewellery worth over $100,000, including a $23,000 Vintage Alhambra necklace from luxury French jeweller Van Cleef & Arpels and a $21,000 gold Cartier love bracelet, paired with a $3,400 love ring from the same label.

She accessorised with stunning $20,000 four-leaf clover patterned Magic Alhambra earrings also from the Van Cleef luxury house and a matching $11,000 bracelet.

Zana completed the look with a quilted gold designer-style Chanel handbag and an additional clutch, leaning fully into a high-glam, head-to-toe metallic theme. 

Her honey-toned hair was styled into soft, loose waves, while bronzed makeup and a glowing complexion gave her a polished, camera-ready finish.

Zana later shared a gallery of photos to social media which captured her partying it up in style with friends and family at the swanky Botanical Hotel in South Yarra. 

She looked effortlessly put together in the same show-stopping gold dress from earlier in the day, as she moved from salon glam to birthday celebration mode.

It comes after news of Zana's marriage split with husband Gianni Romano rocked 's 'Golden Mile'.

Gianni and Zana – a pair of lawyers who rose to fame on My Kitchen Rules in 2016 -

The former couple are living completely separate lives, with Zana – now a property developer and influencer – chasing the European summer with her children, while her estranged husband gets back to work in wintry Melbourne.

Daily Mail caught up with Gianni – a partner at the law firm Best Hooper – last year and noticed the father-of-two wasn't wearing his wedding ring.
