Shimmer abounded at Swarovski's launch party for Crystal Obsession, an accessories collection incorporating crystals into designer fashion accessories. Held at Sky Studios, the
event featured a number of glistening pieces from the collection, but more eye-catching were the co-ed models dressed in body paint and decorated with crystals by makeup artist Peter Brown. Although covered in the all the right places, one model started to show some actual skin when her paint started to peel and she needed an emergency touch-up mid-party.
The 380 guests, who were treated to crystal tattoos and hair accessories, were primarily from the design industry. The crystal theme extended to the glitter-flecked carpet and the blue crystal-filled bathtub in the upstairs space. Even the catering, by Olivier Cheng Catering and Events, made use of the sparkling theme: The Lucite serving trays were decorated with blue crystals.
