Anne Hathaway Sparkles in Versace Crystal Dress and Sky-High Heels for Bulgari’s ‘Mediterranea’ Show

Anne Hathaway made a sparkling statement during Bulgari’s “Mediterranea” high jewelry show. The actress was one of numerous star attendees in the front row for the Carine Roitfeld-styled show, including Zendaya, Priyanka Chopra and BLACKPINK’s Lisa.

Hathaway gleamed at the occasion in Venice, Italy at the Palazzo Ducale on Tuesday night, wearing a dynamic Atelier Versace gown. The “Armageddon Time” actress’ style was crafted into a sleeveless silhouette with a see-through tulle base, which was further coated in gold and silver degradé crystals. For added edge, the glamorous set featured a hem formed with crystal-trimmed destroyed-effect netting. For added boldness, the piece also featured a central cutout, thigh-high slit and ’80s-esque hood — which was also detachable for more varied wear.

When it came to footwear, Hathaway strapped into a pair of soaring silver sandals to complete her ensemble. The “Princess Diaries” actress’ style featured smooth mirrored metallic uppers with thin toe and ankle straps, set atop stacked platform soles. A set of towering stiletto heels totaling at least 5 inches in height finished the pair with a dynamic base.

Hathaway’s footwear often makes strong shoe statements, both on and off the red carpet. The Oscar-winning actress regularly wears bright pumps and sandals from brands like Jimmy Choo, Tom Ford, Charlotte Olympia and more. Her off-duty rotation usually veers towards clean casual footwear: Valentino and Chanel flats, Nike sneakers, and a variety of pointed-toe black leather loafers are regularly on rotation.
