In the second part of the concert, diva Anna sang with her husband Yusif Eyvazov the song “In questa reggia” from Puccini’s Turandot. For this performance, the soprano wore a dress with coordinated cape created for her by the Slovakian fashion-designer Boris Hanecka. A dream, red fire sparkling dress with a myriad of fringes and cristal embroidery. Multicolor long earrings from Chopard.
