Bulgari Celebrates Joy And Contemporary Femininity By Weaving A Vivid Reverie Of Luxurious Elegance That Is The Divas' Dream Collection
ANGELYN KWEK
A Dreamer's Dream

Rooted in Roman heritage, Bulgari has always demonstrated its creative flair through leitmotifs that draw inspiration from its rich culture. And in the realm of fine jewellery, the Divas’ Dream collection perfectly embodies this tenet of the Italian house with its signature fan-shaped design. Captivating and iconic, this is a jewellery collection that celebrates the confident, stylish, and charismatic woman: the modern-day diva.

Dreaming Magic

Based in the Eternal City and surrounded by all that amazing architecture, it’s no surprise that Bulgari constantly draws inspiration from everything around it. This was certainly the case with the fan-shaped mosaics decorating the ancient Caracalla Baths of Rome — it was their harmonious blend of geometry and glamour that led to the birth of the iconic silhouette of the Divas’ Dream collection.

Featuring in every piece to reflect the essence of both Roman heritage and contemporary luxury, the inherently feminine fan design has since come to represent the natural grace and radiance of the extraordinary women who wear it.

One woman in question is none other than Bulgari’s muse — the talented actress Anne Hathaway. She exemplifies its refined beauty and elegance even as she is in turn charmed by it and the woman the collection represents. “There’s so many things that I love about the Diva,” she said during the filming of the new Divas’ Dream campaign. “I love the mindset she has; I think she really thinks for herself. She’s always discovering wonder and magic. She’s just really comfortable in her own skin.”
