Bulgari launch Italian Festa: high jewelery and popular icons for a refined collection ♦ ︎
Bulgari celebrated in Venice the Italian festa collection of high jewelery. With a party, obviously. The pieces were presented to celebrities of the moment, such as Lily Aldridge, Alicia Vikander, Bella Hadid, Shu Qi and Lottie Moss, inspire Italian tradition. But, in particular, its most popular appearance: a strange contrast to the sophisticated and precious jewelery realization.
There are, for example, a lollipop, a gelato with a stick, a necklace with chillies, and even a necklace with the insignia of the contradas participating in the Palio of Siena. Symbols, in fact, but of festive occasions or occasions known by everyone. Obviously, jewels are not for everyone and, in spite of their shapes that open the eye to popular culture, are refined. They were made in Rome, in the Bulgari labs, with over a year of work. So long, because, like in the case of fake chillies, the choice of equal stones for color, cut and reflection was a difficult task. Lavinia Andorno
