130年の喜び
Austria, Since 1895
Title:The History of Swarovski
Subtitle:As soon as Swarovski Crystals were introduced to the world, they exerted a mysterious fascination, combining precision cutting with the natural beauty of sunlight and the night sky. Daniel and his sons instinctively collaborated with couturiers, who were, in turn, inspired by the creative possibilities of Swarovski’s ever-evolving materials. The most distinctive were the iridescent Aurora Borealis crystals, which became the signature embellishment of Christian Dior in the 1950s.
Glittering Highlights
Title:The Swarovski Timeline
Subtitle:Glittering highlights are not just confined to fashion and jewelry. Swarovski Crystals have starred on stage and screen and even lit up the road through partnerships with BMW and Mercedes. Significant moments in our history are connected to philanthropy, notably through the initiation of environmental and ethical projects and partnerships.
Crystal Expertise
Title:Swarovski Savoir-Faire
Subtitle:Each design, every collection, pays tribute to founder Daniel Swarovski’s dedication to creative excellence and is radiant with our magical savoir-faire.
Swarovski’s unmistakable savoir-faire – paired with the relentless pursuit of innovation – has inspired collaborations with the greatest names in fashion, cinema, and music for almost 130 years, making the company a leading and enduring influence on pop culture.
Bold Designs
Giovanna’s approach to creating with crystals is, in a word, bold, letting the stones speak for themselves and styling them to harness their natural inner light. And to play with color. ‘For me, color is very important for the collection and something that I personally love,’ explains Giovanna. ‘The beauty is that it’s already embedded into the crystal itself.’
Creative Direction
In 2020, Swarovski engaged a company-wide Creative Director for the first time in its history. Giovanna Battaglia Engelbert's inaugural collection, Collection I, featured necklaces, earrings, rings, and body chains, with an emphasis on color and geometry. It was named after Article No. 1, the first crystal Daniel Swarovski ever sketched, and was inspired by his hand drawings of crystals.
A Golden Era of Light & Color
Throughout the decades, Swarovski’s unparalleled savoir-faire gave rise to trends and collaborations with dozens of fashion houses and designers including Christian Dior and Elsa Schiaparelli. As our brand and reputation grew, so did our offering and creativity as we mastered bold new cuts including oval navette and elegant baguette cut crystals. We embraced the spirit of each passing zeitgeist, creating opulent pieces of glamorous jewelry that adorned celebrities, socialites, and all discerning lovers of luxury.
Extravagance for Everyone
When Daniel Swarovski first produced his brilliant crystals, he changed the way the world perceived diamonds and jewelry. At a time when jewelry was worn only by the wealthy elite, Daniel recognized crystal's potential to infuse luxury and glamour into everyday jewelry and fashion, and have an empowering effect on women from all walks of life. His vision reshaped the fashion landscape, offering opulence to the masses.
Mesmerizing Collaborations
For almost 130 years, Swarovski has turned heads on the red carpet and runways. From Oliver Rousteing’s first haute couture collection for Balmain to McQueen’s Swarovski Crystal Catsuit for the Deliverance show, technical innovation and savoir-faire keeps Swarovski at the forefront of fashion. When Donatella Versace was asked what Swarovski Crystals added to her unmistakable designs, she replied: ‘They add magic to every fabric.’
Swarovski 與 Dior：時尚合作夥伴
Swarovski 與 Dior 長期以來的合作，在時尚史上創造了許多最令人目眩神迷的作品。在整個 1950 年代，水晶點綴了 Christian Dior 許多最具代表性的設計，但在 1956 年，隨著北極光色效果的誕生，這項合作關係達到了新的高峰。以深受 Daniel 啟發的北極光命名，其獨特的反射特性為 Dior 的高級訂製作品帶來了前所未有的動態和色彩。從 Yves Saint Laurent 到 John Galliano，北極光色水晶效果持續以其無限的創意可能性，讓時尚界最傑出的設計師們驚嘆不已。
Swarovski 與時尚
Swarovski 於 1895 年誕生，恰逢高級時裝的萌芽時期，因此 Daniel 會前往巴黎最早的時裝品牌，與各大設計師合作，包括 Jean Patou 和 Pierre Cardin 等，一起開發新切割和顏色的水晶。他的創作大受歡迎，從那時起，設計師們便依賴 Swarovski 水晶來點綴他們在紐約、倫敦、巴黎和米蘭系列中最璀璨的造型。
Swarovski 的舞台與銀幕成就
Swarovski 與娛樂界的淵源可追溯至近百年前的好萊塢早期，當時 Swarovski 水晶在 Marlene Dietrich的 電影《金髮維納斯（Blonde Venus）》（1932）中首次亮相。快轉到 2023 年 Beyoncé 的「Renaissance 世界巡迴演唱會」，這位標誌性歌手在阿姆斯特丹以一件鑲嵌數千顆 Swarovski 水晶的 Iris van Herpen 訂製服裝，為她的表演拉開序幕。
Swarovski 璀璨搖滾
在搖滾樂的各個時代，Swarovski 都很榮幸能與許多傳奇表演者同台，為貓王 Elvis、Elton John、Queen 樂團設計了奢華絢麗的服裝。1972 年，貓王 Elvis Presley 的服裝設計師選擇用 Swarovski 水晶來捕捉光線，打造出音樂史上最著名的閃亮白色連身褲。Elton 對亮片、羽毛和水晶鑲飾的服裝情有獨鍾，他經常與時尚設計師 Bob Mackie 合作，兩人共同創造了數十套華麗的服裝，這些服裝一路定義了 Elton 的視覺形象，直到他的最後一場巡演。
從傳統、生活風格到未來方向，展現 Swarovski 光鮮亮麗的多種樣貌。
