Bvlgari Debuts First Icons Minaudière Collection, Elevating Mini Bags to Collectible Art
Designed by Mary Katrantzou, these sculptural evening pieces reimagine the Roman maison’s iconic motifs with couture elegance.
Italian luxury house Bvlgari has unveiled its first-ever dedicated minaudière collection, marking a significant expansion of its evening accessories portfolio and underscoring the enduring appeal of mini bags in high fashion. Designed by Mary Katrantzou, the Icons Minaudière Collection transforms some of the brand’s most recognisable signatures—Serpenti, Monete, Tubogas, Divas’ Dream and Bvlgari Bvlgari—into exquisitely sculpted statement pieces.



Positioned at the intersection of jewellery and couture accessories, each minaudière is conceived as a collectible object rather than a purely functional bag. The designs showcase intricate detailing, refined finishes and artisanal techniques deeply rooted in Bvlgari’s Roman heritage, while presenting a contemporary interpretation of its iconic codes.



Available in limited quantities at select boutiques worldwide, the collection highlights exclusivity and craftsmanship, reinforcing Bvlgari’s commitment to artisanal excellence. The launch campaign features a diverse group of influential personalities, including Isabella Rossellini, Linda Evangelista, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Kim Ji-won and Sumayya Vally, celebrating themes of strength, transformation and individuality.
With the debut of the Icons Minaudière Collection, Bvlgari further cements the mini bag’s status as a lasting luxury statement—demonstrating that compact accessories can deliver significant cultural, artistic and design impact.

PNG Launches YOOU, A Lightweight Diamond Jewellery Brand Reflecting The Evolving Identities Of Modern Women
Built On PNG Jewellers’ Legacy Of Trust, YOOU Redefines Lightweight Diamond Jewellery With A Renewed Focus On Individuality, Self-Expression and Everyday Luxury.
PNG Jewellers has announced the rebranding of its lightweight diamond jewellery brand, Litestyle, as YOOU, marking a significant step in the brand’s evolution. The transformation reflects a renewed vision to create jewellery that celebrates individuality, confidence and self-expression. Rooted in PNG Jewellers’ legacy of trust and craftsmanship since 1832, YOOU personifies women who view jewellery not just as an accessory for occasions, but as an extension of their personality and everyday life.
Launched to bridge the gap between traditional jewellery and contemporary everyday wear, YOOU specialises in lightweight diamond jewellery for consumer preferences evolved towards more expressive, design-led pieces, thus creating a brand that resonates more deeply with today’s women. The transition to YOOU reflects this evolution, placing the wearer at the centre of every design philosophy while retaining the quality, purity and craftsmanship that customers have come to associate with PNG Jewellers.
As a contemporary diamond jewellery brand, YOOU offers lightweight designs across 14, 18, 22, and 9 karat gold. Every collection is designed to seamlessly fit into modern lifestyles, offering versatile rings, earrings, chains, pendants, bracelets, bangles, mangalsutras and men’s jewellery that can be worn from the workplace to social occasions. With a presence across 13 EBO locations in shop-in Maharashtra and Goa, YOOU aims to become India’s preferred destination for lightweight diamond jewellery and targets to open 100 new stores (in SIS and EBO format) by 2030.
Sara Tendulkar, Brand Ambassador, YOOU by PNG Jewellers, said:

“Jewellery today is about expressing who you are rather than waiting for a special occasion. What I love about YOOU is that it encourages women to celebrate themselves every single day through designs that are contemporary, effortless and deeply personal. It is a brand that truly reflects the confidence and individuality of today’s generation. You don’t need an occasion to shine. You are the occasion! Welcome to YOOU!“
Dr. Saurabh Gadgil, Chairman and Managing Director, PNG Jewellers, said:
“With YOOU, we are taking that journey forward by creating a brand that speaks directly to today’s woman and her aspirations. Every design has been created to complement her everyday life while carrying forward PNG Jewellers’ enduring promise of trust, purity and craftsmanship. Customers can expect more innovation, more contemporary collections and a jewellery experience that is deeply personal.”
