Anne Hathaway was among the stars who recently attended Bulgari’s runway show in Rome for its new high jewelry collection, Aeterna. Her choice for front-row attire? A corseted Gap shirtdress. She paired the gown with Bulgari diamonds, including a choker necklace, stud earrings, and stacked bracelets.
The Gap outfit, designed by new creative director Zac Posen, was inspired by Audrey Hepburn’s film Roman Holiday, the company shared in a press release. It was custom-made for Hathaway, and given that the actress spent her evening in Rome, it’s a spot-on tribute.
Hathaway has had many memorable fashion moments over the past year, but she told V magazine last month that she doesn’t consider herself a fashion girl.
“I really don’t,” she said. “I view myself more as a guest.”
She added, “I think it’d be an insult to someone whose education revolved around it, whose life revolves around it, who has done a full fashion cycle in multiple cities as opposed to just, like, getting invited to a show and an after-party. I think there’s a degree of stamina and schlepping involved in being a proper fashion person. I’m very grateful to be a guest. I mean, I’ve studied it, but it’s informal. I’m aware of the history. I love fashion photography. And I’ve been welcomed for a long time and been shown great kindness and generosity by people whose lives it is. But I’m an actress first.”
