Italian Fashion Hits Fort Lauderdale

February 8, 2016

The NSU Art Museum’s interiors were transformed into a Sixties Italian fantasia in keeping with the premiere of the exhibition (and the raison d’être for the event) Bellissima: Italy and High Fashion 1945-1968, presented by Bulgari. Black and white décor invoked the design motif of the era in question and Roberto Di Pinto, the executive chef at the Bulgari Hotel in Milan, was flown in to oversee the dinner menu.
