More than 200 one-of-a-kind creations including high jewellery masterpieces, watches, bags and eyewear have been displayed for the first time in the fascinating palace Abbazia La Cervara in Portofino to great delight of clients and press.

Inspired by the movie stars who wore Bulgari jewels since the Dolce Vita epoch and beyond, the Diva collection features a combination of the rarest colour gems, the trademark of the roman jeweler.

A tribute to unforgettable movie stars like Sophia Loren, Ava Gardner or Elizabeth Taylor took place in the form of a historical presentation of outfits of Fondazione Micol Fontana. A gala dinner was hosted in the scenic gardens of Abbazia La Cervara permeated by the elegance of the 1950s and 1960s. The evening has been enlivened by the enthralling sounds of Diana Ross and by the vocal quintet Pentatonix. Celebrity attendees included actor Adrien Brody and photographer Terry Richardson.
