Dante Ferretti (born February 26, 1943) is an Italian production designer, art director and costume designer for films.
In his career, Ferretti has worked with many great directors, both American and Italian, such as Pier Paolo Pasolini, Federico Fellini, Terry Gilliam, Franco Zeffirelli, Martin Scorsese, Anthony Minghella, and Tim Burton. He frequently collaborates with his wife, set-designer Francesca Lo Schiavo.
Ferretti has developed a very close professional relationship with Martin Scorsese, designing seven of his last eight movies. In the past he had two other long collaborations with Pier Paolo Pasolini and Federico Fellini, both with five films.
In 2008, he designed the set for Howard Shore's opera The Fly, directed by David Cronenberg, at the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris.
