Bulgari Brought the Ritz and Glitz to New York City to Celebrate 50 Years in America

How does an iconic Italian jewelry brand celebrate 50 years of international success in America? At one of the coolest new spots in New York City, of course. On Wednesday evening, Bulgari took over the newly opened jazz club in the Aman Resorts for a star-studded fête. Guests like Katie Holmes and Danai Gurira were serenaded with live performances from Brian Newman and Dev Hynes. In between the sets, DJ duo Angel + Dren treated the crowd to uptempo tunes—like Beyonce’s Cozy, which immediately got attendees up and dancing.
Of course, it wouldn’t be a Bulgari party without magnificently crafted jewels on display. In the foyer, the heritage brand showcased historic Bulgari Heritage Collection items, from a triple-band Monete Tubogas choker to a gold Star Spangled Banner evening bag (naturally, the stripes on the flag-themed purse were made out of sapphires and diamonds). While those museum-worthy pieces, which date back to the ’70s, aren’t for sale, partygoers did get a glimpse of a celebratory Bulgari capsule collection that will be up for grabs on Fifth Avenue.
