Lola Bute and Stella Maxwell Celebrate Aquazzura and Mytheresa With a Glamorous Night in Italy

Aquazzura and Mytheresa sure know how to serve up a Roman holiday. On Thursday, the duo teamed up for a spectacular soirée to toast Aquazzura’s exclusive new capsule collection—and their long-standing partnership—in seriously cinematic style: right on the steps of Cinecittà Studios’ legendary ancient Roman temple set. With delicious food, a chic crowd, and a rainbow-hued meadow made up of 300 pairs of Aquazzura shoes, the night was pure magic.

“It felt like a dream come true to make a party with Mytheresa, one of our first clients, and an incredible supporter through the years of Aquazzura, in Rome with friends and family, and on one of the most magical sets where they filmed Ben-Hur and Cleopatra,” Edgardo Osorio, founder and creative director of Aquazzura, exclusively tells ELLE. Taking inspiration from Federico Fellini’s La Dolce Vita, the evening channeled the glitz and glamour of 1960s Italy.

To kick off the two-part event, Osorio and Michael Kliger, CEO of Mytheresa, invited an international array of It girls, royalty, actors, and close friends. Attendees included Lola Bute, Kitty Spencer, Diane Kruger, Princess Eugenia von Hannover, Stella Maxwell, and more. The long table was a vision of romantic elegance, adorned with lush floral arrangements of jatropha, peonies, and celosia. After dinner, guests danced the night away—a scene fit for any Fellini fantasy.

The following morning began with a leisurely brunch at the brand-new Aquazzura Bar, tucked inside the iconic Hotel de Russie and just a stone’s throw from the historic Spanish Steps. After a night of celebration and a morning of relaxation, the glamorous Roman getaway came to a perfect close.
