Viennese State Opera House: Presentation of Swarovski’s newest tiara as designed by Italian couple Dolce&Gabbana.
Dolce&Gabbana drew inspiration for the richly detailed headpiece from Mozart’s opera Le nozze di Figaro, in particular, the words sung in the eighth scene of the first act: “Giovani lieti – fiori spargete!” (“Happy maids, scatter flowers!”).
This image has been poetically reflected in the floral design of the tiara, where delicate blossoms meet organic curved leaves created using 702 Swarovski crystals and “Xirius Chatons” in Crystal and Golden Shadow shades as well as six rose-colored enamel flowers.
Swarovski’s creative partnership with the famous Vienna Opera Ball has existed since the 1950s. Organised by the Viennese State Opera, the event is the cultural highlight of the Viennese ball season.
