The 16th of May marked the Bulgari Mediterranea High Jewelry event in Palazzo Ducale, Venice. The occasion saw global actresses Anne Hathaway and Priyanka Chopra adorning the red carpet in their ensembles, in honour of Bulgari’s new jewelry collection.
Anne’s Atelier Versace gown proved to be a beautiful combination of gold at the top, transitioning into silver sparkles towards the bottom. The bejeweled hood was an incredible addition to the gown, which Anne opted to put on during the event. Priyanka, on the other hand, decided to wear a maroon skirt set coupled with an off-shoulder full-sleeved crop top. The long velvety skirt, with ruched waist gathering and waist brooch, featured deep colours of maroon, blue and green which complemented the jewellery.
In this ocean of fashion, where everyone is trying to make a statement, Zendaya has stood out as the red-carpet fashionista of the moment. It comes as no surprise that the Spiderman star is everyone’s favourite. In a black velvet off-shoulder Richard Quinn gown, she weighed in effortlessly. Her red-carpet glam included a dark, smokey eye, nude lips, and a sleek bun with wavy strands swept back, adding extra drama to her overall look.
When it came to jewellery, the actresses didn’t disappoint. To aptly match the event’s theme, they adorned themselves with eye-catching diamond pieces. Anne’s necklace was adorned with ruby-coloured gemstones, and for Priyanka, a choker was the choice, featuring multi-coloured gemstones embedded among silver stones, stylistically tying together her outfit.
This memorable event served as a reunion for Anne and Priyanka, who had last caught up at the Met Gala 2023, which honoured the late fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld.
All in all, the evening was dotted with elegant and trendsetting moments, thanks to the actresses’ fashion and stylistic choices, proving that they still continue to serve fashion goals even off the screen. The Bulgari Mediterranea High Jewelry event might have come and gone, but the impact of these ladies’ fashion-forward looks will linger for a long time.
This serves as a reminder that the fashion world still has much in store for us to look forward to.
