“Paris Haute Couture” exhibition, which runs until July 6 2013 in the Salle Saint-Jean of the Hôtel de Ville in Paris.
During that time, in 1895, Daniel Swarovski invented a revolutionary technique for cutting and polishing crystal, and soon after started working hand in hand with Haute Couture designers. This close collaboration began in 1900 with pieces created by couturier Worth, embroidered with Swarovski crystals. Today, Swarovski takes great pride in its close relationship with Haute Couture, a tradition passed from generation to generation within the Swarovski family throughout the 20th century.

Sissi's blue dream tiara sparkles at the 2013 Vienna Opera Ball
Sissi's Blue Dream Tiara designed by Prince Dimitri.
“I have always loved Winterhalter’s portrait of Empress Sissi,” explains Prince Dimitri,
who also created the Opera Ball tiara for 2012. “I went one step further in the design for
my latest piece. My thought was that if Sissi were around today, the stars she would
dream of would probably be blue.”
