Anne Hathaway has always carried a touch of old-Hollywood in her posture and her smile, but in Rome she made the reference literal. Stepping out in a crisp, architectural white dress—its folded neckline and corseted seams sculpted like marble—Hathaway framed the look with Bulgari High Jewelry, and the city responded as if she’d switched on another set of evening lights.
The necklace was the conversation starter: a sweeping collar of diamonds punctuated by a sapphire-blue centerpiece that echoed the dusk over the Tiber. Its lines were classic Bulgari—bold yet refined, Roman in its confidence—sitting high at the collarbone so every turn of her head caught the flash. Matching diamond earrings and a stack of bracelets completed the story, adding rhythm and sparkle without overwhelming the clean geometry of the dress. On Hathaway, the pieces felt effortless; she wears high jewelry the way some wear a silk scarf.
There’s an elegant symmetry to this pairing. Bulgari is the house that made Rome a permanent part of the red carpet, famed for treating gemstones like works of modern art. Hathaway, for her part, understands the power of restraint. She lets the cut of a gown do the talking, then lets jewelry deliver the exclamation point. The result here was a look that felt cinematic but not nostalgic—Audrey Hepburn reimagined for today.
Hair left loose and glossy, makeup soft and sun-touched, Hathaway let the jewelry frame a face we already associate with intelligent glamour. In an age of maximalist noise, she gave us clarity: white, diamond, sapphire, city. For one Roman evening, Bulgari’s brilliance met Hathaway’s poise, and together they wrote a small style chapter worthy of the capital—timeless, luminous, and designed to be remembered.
