They were treated not only to a night out on the town just ahead of New York Fashion Week, but also a comprehensive history lesson on the Tubogas legacy.
The foyer of the party venue featured a mini-exhibition on Tubogas, a technique that gives a unique, ridged look to gold links on chains; the jewelry house coined the style in the 1940s. Lining the walls at Skylight at the Refinery were advertisements from the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s, along with photographs of iconic Tubogas pieces.
Johnson also took a spin through the baubles on display after she arrived at the party (causing nearly every attendee to dash to the entrance, phones up, in hopes of catching a glimpse of the star). The actress accented her a chocolate-brown Gucci slip dress with a dazzling Bulgari pendant necklace.
In an area cordoned off for VIPs, Johnson, Jackson, and Campbell snapped photos together before sitting down to chat with Bulgari’s deputy CEO, Laura Burdese, and the company’s president of North America, Hervé Perrot. Later on in the evening, the musician Masego staged an intimate performance; he played a grand piano and sang while the artist Christopher Bauder’s kinetic light sculpture THE WAVE curved and bent overhead, flashing red and white.
