Priyanka Chopra Jonas, renowned for her impeccable style, made a dazzling appearance at Bulgari’s 140th anniversary celebration in Rome. Arriving with a chic bob hairstyle, she turned heads as the brand’s ambassador, adorning the magnificent Serpenti Aeterna necklace. This masterpiece, boasting approximately 140 carats of diamonds, is a testament to Bulgari’s unparalleled craftsmanship, taking 2,800 hours to perfect.
The Serpenti Aeterna necklace is a captivating creation featuring a rough diamond of over 20 carats, cut into seven pear-shaped drops that collectively weigh 140 carats—a tribute to each year of Bulgari’s rich history. These drops are elegantly nestled within a sinuous, three-dimensional wave structure adorned with 698 baguette diamonds weighing a total of 61.81 carats. Jonas complemented the necklace with an off-shoulder cream and black gown by Giambattista Valli, exuding both grace and sophistication.
Bulgari chose its hometown of Rome to unveil its latest high jewelry collection, a testament to the brand’s enduring heritage. Over 500 exquisite creations were showcased, including watches, bags, and fragrances. The event was a celebration of Bulgari’s artistry and innovation.
The evening was further elevated by captivating performances. A poetic duet between choreographer Sadek Berrabah and ballet dancer Eleonora Abbagnato, the director of Teatro dell’Opera di Roma, captivated the audience. Berrabah’s subsequent performance featured a mesmerizing ensemble of 80 dancers twirling in perfect synchrony.
In line with its commitment to transparency and security, Bulgari introduced its Digital Passport.
