I had a chance to attend a quick introduction session at Swarovski for their new collection the other day (thank you Laura!), where I was positively shocked at how versatile and widely used crystals were. So much that basically every time you see a sparkle on a fashion garment or home interior, you can safely assume it’s a product of Swarovski. I was shown all the types of beads, application techniques and texture ‘palettes’, then taken around the show room to see how they were put to action. It was a bit like seeing a few yarn balls and then going around to see a Rodarte piece, similar sort of overwhelming, but fantastic nonetheless.
