Bulgari Unveils New Peter Marino-Designed Boutique in Bal Harbour

In the midst of Art Basel week, Bulgari unveiled their brand new Bal Harbour boutique by of-the-moment designer, Peter Marino.

Bulgari CEO Jean-Christophe Babin, Veronica Bulgari, and designer, Peter Marino were all on hand to celebrate the new store, which had a decidedly European feel to it. Swaths of marble, mid-century fretwork and unique display cases demonstrated that Bulgari made the right decision going with the unusual designer, who was arguably the figure Basel with an extensive display at The Bass Museum and a vignette at Design Miami that featured a life-size replica of the leather clad-designer.

Other notable guests included President Bulgari USA Alberto Festa, Candela Ferro, Mikael Kraemer, Marysol Patton and a cadre of media and Bulgari VIPs who sipped champagne and enjoyed canapés while rubbing elbows with the jewelry scions and celebrity designer.
