She also donned a High Jewelry ring in platinum witih a 14.88 carat cushion emerald, 12 buff-top emeralds, 42 step-cut diamonds, and pave set diamonds, plus earrings with two cushion diamonds.

Meanwhile, other celebrities wearing Bulgari on the blue carpet at the Met included house ambassadors Zendaya, Lisa of Blackpink and Monica Barbaro.
The yet-to-be debuted Polychroma collection aims to capture the rich world of unique colored gemstones through shapes, hues and symbolism. “I believe that Polychroma embodies the very soul of Bulgari, a celebration of color in all its infinite expressions,” Bulgari jewelry creative director Lucia Silvestri told WWD exclusively. “It captures the essence of our maison, bold, vibrant, and ever-evolving — through a symphony of extraordinary gemstones that bring this collection to life.”
Silvestri shared that gemstones have always been the starting point of each of her creative journeys and with this new challenge she has “had the opportunity to explore this universe from a new and daring perspective. The heart of the collection lies in the rarest and most beautiful stones, each exceptional in its own way, allowing us to investigate color from countless angles.
“I couldn’t be prouder to see these creations come to life at the Met Gala. It’s an emotional moment, representing the culmination of a path rich in both artistic inspiration and technical mastery,” she said.
For the Roman house, each high jewelry collection aims to push the boundaries of what’s possible. “With Polychroma, I believe we’ve achieved just that,” she said. “As masters of colored gems, we’ve always sought to demonstrate that we can go further; to show that color, like a kaleidoscope of infinite reflections, offers limitless and ever-evolving possibilities. In this collection, we’ve explored the different shades in a way that’s never been done before, unveiling new dimensions of beauty and artistry.”
“To see these creations come to life on the red carpet is deeply emotional for me. The jewelry, worn by inspiring individuals, radiates strength and beauty that mirrors their own. Jewelry has the power to do more than adorn; it amplifies the inner confidence and beauty of the wearer. Watching them shine in these powerful moments reminds me of the profound role jewelry plays in telling a unique, personal story,” Silvestri said.
