Pasquale Bruni x Save Venice

A night of elegance and purpose unfolded at The Plaza Hotel, as Pasquale Bruni joined Save Venice in honoring the legacy of art, culture, and Italian craftsmanship.

A NIGHT TO REMEMBER

On April 25th, 2025, The Plaza Hotel in New York City was transformed into a regal celebration for Save Venice’s annual masked ball, Un Ballo in Maschera.

Themed The Banquet of Cleopatra, the evening fused the mystique of ancient Egypt with contemporary elegance.

Hosted in collaboration with Oscar de la Renta, Casa Tua, and Tilt Beauty, the event was co-chaired by luminaries including Eugenia Bruni, Celia Kritharioti, Lauren Kulchinsky Levison, Alexandra O'Neill, Lauren & Andrés Santo Domingo, and Bronson Van Wyck.

The gala raised vital funds for the preservation of Venice’s historic treasures.

The Touch of Pasquale Bruni

As the official jewelry sponsor, Pasquale Bruni illuminated the evening with pieces that embodied the spirit of Cleopatra—divine, radiant, and powerful.

Creative Director Eugenia Bruni, a co-chair of the event, shared her passion for Italian culture, womanhood, and the artistry that defines the Maison.

"I am truly honored to sponsor this extraordinary event, which reflects my love for Italy and its rich cultural heritage.

Venice has always held a special place in my heart: with its charm and its art, it is a miracle of beauty that blends art, the elements of nature, moonlit nights, and the glimmers in the canals, where Love continuously envelops us.

At Pasquale Bruni, we celebrate the excellence of our Italian craftsmanship, creating jewelry that embodies strength, wonder, art, and rebirth through light. Our muse is the woman, including Cleopatra, with her divine presence and strength.

I am therefore excited and particularly proud to support the restoration of Nostra Signora dell’Attesa by Jacopo Palma il Giovane, a masterpiece that captures the soul of the Madonna in waiting, surrounded by the aura of her light that ignites and merges with that of unconditional love.

A celebration of women who have made
history and the spiritual soul a divine masterpiece"

Eugenia Bruni
