A Spectacular Night
Title:Swarovski ignited the 94th Oscars® with more than 90,000 crystals in a mesmerizing stage design by David Korins. Using swirling lines and shimmering spheres Korins created his vision of “a dynamic portal into the future in which we trade in the currency of electricity and elegance” – in an electrifying moment, a brilliant crystal curtain made from 80,000 Swarovski Crystals filled the stage. This year marks the 14th time we have lent our crystal wonder to the Oscars®. Our long heritage of precision-cutting and mastery of light gives Swarovski Crystals their unique ability to ignite dreams, making them the perfect choice to illuminate film’s most illustrious night.

“The beautiful thing about working with Swarovski Crystals is that you use them just the way they are. They shine and sparkle the way you want them to. With Swarovski Crystals, there's no need for scenic enhancements, what you want to do is accentuate what they are already meant to do and that is capture and reflect light beautifully.”
