"Biogenic Reef” by Michalis Pantelidis at the Pre-Grammy Gala

At one of the most prestigious events leading up to the Grammy Awards, Kimberly Thompson Panayi appeared wearing the “Biogenic Reef” silk scarf by Cypriot textile designer Michalis Pantelidis, bringing Mediterranean craftsmanship into the heart of the global music industry.

The appearance took place at the Pre-Grammy Party & Black Music Collective Gala, hosted at the iconic Fairmont Century Plaza, an evening honoring influential music figures Pharrell Williams, Brandy, and Kirk Franklin.

Kimberly Thompson Panayi, wife of Recording Academy President Panos Panayi, was photographed wearing the scarf alongside leading figures of the international music scene, including Charlie Puth, highlighting the quiet elegance of the design within a globally influential cultural setting.

  

Inspired by the underwater treasures of the Larnaka sea in Cyprus, the “Biogenic Reef” scarf translates marine textures and organic formations into a contemporary wearable artwork.

  

Crafted from 100% silk and produced in Greece, the scarf embodies a dialogue between Mediterranean heritage and contemporary fashion.
