Held at the Wölffer Estate Vineyards in New York, the Gatsby-themed event saw socialites and philanthropists in their best 1920s suits and dresses, and such a jazzed-up crowd was what Trunfio needed for her mini-project.

She auctioned off her Trunfio Universe bracelets — sleek geometric bangles that feature a striking charm on top, either a pyramid, a pave heart, or quartz or turquoise disc.

The Erth Jewellery founder has engineered a screw system that makes charms interchangeable, so you can update it with your wardrobe as you please.

15% of the sales went to Love Heals’ cause. Trunfio, as well as other guests like Kelly Killoren Bensimon, wore these bracelets at the event.
