Repossi Repossi the 10th anniversary of its iconic Serti Sur Vide collection in spectacular style at Jossa, Alserkal Avenue in Dubai in the presence of Anne de Vergeron, President of Repossi. The exclusive event brought together esteemed members of the press, influencers, and VIPs for an evening of artistry and innovation, honoring the Maison's commitment to avant-garde jewelry design and craftsmanship.
Guests were captivated by a live artistic performance where a skilled string artist intricately recreated the Serti Sur Vide ear cuff, embodying the collection’s visionary design and meticulous detail. Adding to the enchanting atmosphere, Dubai-favorite DJ Parvane curated a dynamic soundtrack, seamlessly blending modern beats with timeless melodies.
The venue design was a masterpiece in itself—featuring pear-shaped tunnels that echoed the brilliance of the diamonds in the Serti Sur Vide collection. These immersive installations paid homage to the collection's ethos of minimalism and the celebration of negative space, a hallmark of Repossi's aesthetic.
Adding an interactive touch, attendees were invited to create unique photo content using a specially designed trombinoscope. Guests styled themselves with exquisite pieces from the High Jewellery Serti Sur Vide collection, capturing moments of elegance and style. This unique activation brought the iconic jewelry to life, allowing participants to embody Repossi's signature ethos of wearable art.
This milestone event further cemented Repossi’s legacy as a pioneer in contemporary jewelry design and reinforced its connection to Dubai’s vibrant art and design community.
Serti sur Vide, an emblem of Repossi’s avant-garde, celebrates the craftsmanship of a renowned Maison on Place Vendôme for over 35 years. This collection, which pays tribute to Repossi’s signature pear-shaped stone, perfectly illustrates the fusion of heritage and modernity. The pear- shaped diamonds are carefully chosen for their elegant shape and ideal proportions, highlighted by the “Eiffel Tower” setting—a technical feat that creates an illusion of levitation and enhances their natural brilliance in sleek designs.
Ten years after its launch in 2014, Repossi celebrates the Serti sur Vide collection through two chapters revisiting its codes and paying tribute to neo-wears extracted from the Maison’s archives. The first chapter, unveiled in January 2024, presents 11 pieces combining technicality and flexibility, punctuated by bezel settings magnifying the center stones. These parures, available in diamonds and emeralds, display powerful and unconventional signatures. The tie necklace of this first act pays homage to the famous necklace of the same name created by Alberto Repossi in 2000.
This second chapter, presented in June 2024 at the Centre Pompidou, pays tribute to the neo- portés expression dear to
Maison Repossi. The starting point for these new creations is a drawing found in the archives: an earcuff designed by Alberto Repossi nearly 20 years ago. The creative studio focused on this piece and sought to reinvent the cascade diamond, revealing 6 minimalist pieces combining delicacy and technicality, each demonstrating the Maison’s jewelry craftsmanship (each element of the mount is designed to be as invisible as possible while providing flexibility and movement).
