Fine New Looks From Swarovski
The pieces in Swarovski’s new spring/summer collection hit the mark of offering an elegant, bold look at consumer-friendly price points.
I think Swarovski is on to something with its new spring/summer 2016 collection.
Many of the pieces offered in the line look like high-end fine jewelry, from elegant statement necklaces to on-trend earring styles. Pair this aesthetic with Swarovski being a well-known name among consumers, and you’ve got an affordable line with potential.
Here are my top picks from Swarovski’s new Sea of Sparkle collection, all of which I think offer great sale-ability, wearability and style.
The Exist necklace, which features a ribbon design in a rose-gold plated base metal with clear crystal pavé ($169) and goes with the Exist double-ring, also made in a rose-gold plated base metal with clear crystal pavé ($149)
The “Torque” necklace is a true statement piece in a rose-gold plated metal with clear crystal pavé. The organically-shaped piece is made with a spring-hinge closure mechanism ($249).
The glamorous “Edify” necklace, also in a rose-gold plated metal with Swarovski’s crystal pearls ($299). The matching Edify cuff also has the V-shaped structure of the necklace and is made with the same materials with the addition of clear crystal pavé ($125).
The “Exact” bangle, available in multiple sizes, offers a fluid silhouette in a rose-gold plated metal with clear crystal pavé ($169).
The Creativity earrings, left, are made in a rhodium-plated metal with crystal pavé and are meant to be worn with the small hoop on the front of the earlobe and the larger hoops behind the earlobe, like a jacket ($99). The Edify earrings, at right, are in a rose-gold plated metal with crystal pearls and crystal pavé ($89).
The “Except” double ring offers an open-shank silhouette in a rhodium-plated metal with “Light Azore Moonlight” crystals and crystal pavé ($149).
Of course, it couldn’t be a Swarovski story without a little color. The “Eglantine” necklace, inspired by aquatic flora, features an array of colored crystals in a palladium-plated metal ($299).
Swarovski’s “Daytime” watches, made with a stainless steel case set with 48 clear crystals on the bezel, a 34 mm dial, index markers and the Swarovski swan logo at 12 o’ clock. These timepieces feature a Swiss quartz movement and come in a variety of colors ($249 to $299).
