Mary Katrantzou is Bulgari’s new creative director of leather goods and accessories.

Dresses from later collections would be compared to Faberge eggs.

Her new Bulgari remit extends from leather day bags to silks to one-of-a-kind or very special high-jewelry bags.

Thats where the mind-blowing Bulgari archive comes in.

But her affinity for Bulgari goes much further back.

Like Katrantzou, the companys founder Sotirio Bulgari was Greek.
