Scilla Gabel (born 4 January 1938) is an Italian film, television and stage actress. She appeared in 50 films between 1954 and 1982.
Gabel was born in Rimini, Italy. She entered the cinema industry as Sophia Loren's body double. Between 1957 and 1967 she appeared, often as the female lead actress, in dozens of films, but failed to emerge because of the stereotyped roles. Starting from late sixties she focused her activity on stage and television, in which she found most significant roles and critical appreciation.
