Summer Gala: Gala One in Saint-Tropez: Where Philanthropy Met Prestige Under the Riviera Sky 

On July 24, 2025, the glamour of Saint-Tropez was elevated to new heights as Gala One unfolded at the exclusive Golf Club Saint-Tropez. The event welcomed international icons from entertainment, fashion, and art—all coming together to support meaningful global causes.

An Iconic Gathering

Hosted by Jamie Foxx, the evening dazzled with a special performance from global pop sensation Rita Ora. Event chairs included a powerhouse group of talent: Adrien Brody, Casey Affleck, Nathalie Emmanuel, Oliver Trevena, and Taika Waititi, with Tommaso Chiabra as Chairman.

From Hollywood actors to renowned creatives, the guest list shimmered with brilliance—each attendee adding to the impact and ambiance of the night.

A Curated Auction of Visionary Works

One of the evening’s centerpieces was a highly curated art and experience auction. At the heart of it stood Brandusa Niro’s “Summer” — a bold, expressive diptych celebrating the ethereal presence of top fashion models through her signature vibrant strokes and figurative style.

“I paint the moment when beauty and story meet,” said Niro of the series, previously shown at Art Miami and the Hamptons Fine Arts Fair.

Other highlights included photography by Ellen von Unwerth, a Vespa painted by Alec Monopoly, rare Muhammad Ali memorabilia, and pieces by Mr. Brainwash and Adrien Brody.

Impact Beyond the Ballroom

Proceeds from Gala One support three global non-profits making real-world change:

• Amend – improving school journey safety in African nations
  
  

• King’s Trust International – helping youth gain skills, jobs, and build businesses
  
  

• Rainforest Trust – protecting millions of acres of rainforest from deforestation
  
  

Each auction lot funded programs with measurable outcomes and global reach.

Luxury Dining Meets Celebration

Guests were treated to a custom dinner experience featuring gourmet vegan and seafood dishes, decadent desserts, and cocktails from MY LAB Paris. The evening flowed with Hatt et Söner Champagne and ended with dancing under the stars.
