Grandeur is practically a civic language in Milan. Its surroundings tell a story of various cultures and art that have become intertwined over the city’s two-millennia history. The Duomo’s intricate spires and looming arches point to Gothic influences; the stately halls of the Palazzo Reale di Milano are Neoclassical in nature; and the romance of Leonardo da Vinci’s Renaissance works lingers in the city’s creative psyche. With such a rich tapestry of architecture, art, and fashion, it feels only fitting that Bvlgari’s Eclettica High Jewellery collection was staged here.
Displayed across the Baroque-style Villa Arconati and the Art Deco-influenced Villa Necchi Campiglio, Bvlgari Eclettica was a maximalist showcase of differing artistic disciplines—painting, sculpture, architecture—distilled into over 650 high jewellery, watch, bag and fragrance creations. For the unveiling, Bvlgari brought out its most prominent brand ambassadors—a move that matched the scale of the occasion.
Queen of Tears actress and the house’s first-ever Korean brand ambassador Kim Ji-won arrived in an indigo-hued dress by Alex Perry, paired with Bvlgari Eclettica pieces set with deep blue gemstones. The house’s Serpenti motif naturally made an appearance, both in the collection and on Liu Yifei, who styled the sinuous gold and diamond necklace with a gown from Elie Saab’s Spring/Summer 2026 haute couture collection.
GRAZIA Malaysia cover girl Pia Wurtzbach-Juancey made a statement in Bvlgari’s Intrinsic Exuberance necklace, a vivid cascade of multi-coloured gemstones totalling over 120 carats. She completed her look with the equally intricate Kaleidoscope Symphony bracelet in rose gold, set with a spectrum of tourmalines, amethysts, aquamarines and pavé diamonds.
Longtime global ambassadors Anne Hathaway and GRAZIA Malaysia digital cover girl Priyanka Chopra Jonas were also in attendance, fresh off their recent Oscars appearances where they soft launched the collection on the red carpet ahead of its official debut. For the Eclettica gala dinner, Hathaway wore the Secret Garden necklace from the collection’s Capolavori—a line of nine masterpieces that anchor its creative thesis. The piece centres on a rare 26.65-carat Padparadscha sapphire with a distinctive pink-orange hue, framed by a mix of sapphires, emeralds and onyx accents.
