Swarovski Has Us In A Twist With Its Exquisite New Chroma Twist Collection
It's extra, and we're here for it! Drawing on 130 years of creativity, innovation and savoir-faire, Swarovski launches Chroma Twist, a collection developed with circular design principles at its core. Designed by Global Creative Director Giovanna Engelbert, the jewellery incorporates elements of the Austrian House's Circular Design Framework, developed in partnership with the Centre for Sustainable Fashion, a leading research centre at the University of the Arts London. The framework aims to reduce waste, keep materials in use, and enhance the longevity of pieces. The six all-new designs feature lower-impact materials, such as Swarovski ReCreated™ Crystals and metals from recycled sources*, and have been thoughtfully crafted to switch crystal colours and adapt styles for increased longevity of wear and timeless versatility. The Chroma Twist Collection includes: A rotating bezel set pendant features a Swarovski ReCreated™ Crystal* in blue on one side and pink on the other, to increase the versatility of the jewel. The design is trimmed with jonquil ReCreated™ Crystals. Drop earrings have a reversible cushion cut silhouette featuring Swarovski ReCreated™ Crystals in jonquil and green, plus blue, which rotates to reveal a vibrant pink stone. A colorful cocktail ring is adorned on the sides with small Swarovski ReCreated™ Crystals in blue. A revolving cushion cut stone to the centre alternates between a rosy pink crystal and a Swarovski ReCreated™ Crystal in lush green. An all-around necklace shines with a full surround of Swarovski ReCreated™ Crystals. This two-tone arrangement swivels from green to blue. A vibrant cuff features three green Swarovski ReCreated™ Crystals that turn to reveal either a pink crystal or a blue Swarovski ReCreated™ Crystal on the reverse side. A double-sided strand necklace with Swarovski ReCreated™ Crystals in green spins and switches to pink. The design's magnetic closures allow for the necklace length to be easily adjusted from long to crew to choker or to create five bracelets of varying lengths. Chroma Twist highlights Swarovski's creative innovations and commitment to circularity while celebrating the House's captivating colour wheel. It exemplifies Swarovski's unwavering dedication to sustainability. Launched as part of the Swarovski Spring-Summer 2025 campaign, Chroma Twist is available in stores and on What's your Reaction? +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0 +1 0

WATCH: Grand collapse at the museum - tourist sits on a priceless crystal chair and breaks it!
Museums are like giant 'Do Not Touch' signs with exquisite lighting. And yet, for some of us (yes, me included), the temptation is just too strong. I mean, if something has survived 4,000 years, surely it can survive a gentle, reverent touch - right? That was my logic years ago when I lovingly ran my fingers over an ancient Egyptian stone tablet in the Nubian Museum in Aswan. The hieroglyphics were breathtaking, and I was completely entranced… until a very polite curator tapped me on the shoulder and explained (with a smile that said 'you silly tourist') that no, the artefacts are not meant to be stroked like a golden retriever. The priceless crystal chair incident that has sparked online cringe Fast-forward to today, and it turns out I'm not alone in my museum misdemeanours. In Italy, a crystal chair inspired by Vincent van Gogh's famous 1888 painting Van Gogh's Chair was recently damaged by a tourist who did more than just look - he sat. Yes, really. CCTV footage from Palazzo Maffei in Verona shows a man and woman taking turns to pose next to the museum's prized piece, a Swarovski crystal-covered chair by Italian artist Nicola Bolla, created between 2006 and 2007.

How much are tickets for Gillian Murphy's final American Ballet performances?
Vivid Seats is the New York Post's official ticketing partner. We may receive revenue from this partnership for sharing this content and/or when you make a purchase. Featured pricing is subject to change. There are few experiences in New York more transcendent than an evening with the American Ballet Theatre at the Metropolitan Opera House, where performances unfold beneath glittering Swarovski chandeliers, surrounded by red velvet carpets and the grandeur of Lincoln Center. And, from now until July 19, productions of 'Woolf Works,' 'Giselle,' 'Sylvia,' 'The Winter's Tale' and 'Swan Lake' are running at the venerable venue. These performances will be notable because Principal Dancer Gillian Murphy will take her final bow with the company, marking the end of an exquisite, era-defining career that has captivated audiences around the world. Expect standing ovations and tears as she dances her swan song on Friday, July 18. In addition to Murphy, the joyful and energetic Skylar Brandt and award-winning Herman Cornejo are also slated to serenade the stage. The two are known for performing with such effortless precision that they bring fairytales of yesteryear to vivid technicolor life with ease. While the spotlight often falls on the dancers, the American Ballet Theatre's resident orchestra deserves its own round of applause as well. In 'Swan Lake,' listen for the expressive violin solos from concertmaster Kobi Malkin and the rich, emotive cello passages by principal cellist Jonathan Spitz, capturing both the devilish and mournful tones of the lead swan. Later down the road, the ABT's fall schedule will feature yet another bittersweet milestone when Misty Copeland delivers her final farewell at the Fall Gala on Oct. 22.

Metropolitan Opera House 2025 calendar Once the ABT closes up shop at the Metropolitan Opera House, the lights won't go down on the 3,800-seat venue. Here's what next there from July through December: About the American Ballet Theatre shows As noted above, there are five productions running at the Metropolitan Opera House over the next month. Here's a quick synopsis of each to make sure you're up to speed. 'Woolf Works' re-creates the emotions, themes, and fluid style of three of Virginia Woolf's novels: 'Mrs. Dalloway,' 'Orlando' and 'The Waves.' The show brings Woolf's world of 'granite and rainbow', where human beings are at once both physical body and uncontained essence to life. 'Giselle' is considered ballet's ultimate tale of unrequited love, heartbreaking loss, and triumphant forgiveness. The ballet tells the story of the titular village maiden and a handsome villager named Albrecht. What Giselle does not know is that her new paramour is actually a young nobleman in disguise who is already betrothed to another. 'Sylvia' brings Frederick Ashton's 1952 imagining of Louis Merante's 1876 three-act ballet to the stage. A mortal shepherd happens upon a woodland creature dance before interrupting the fun. He meets the huntress Sylvia. Mishaps lead to a kidnapping and quest to pair up once again after their chance meeting. 'The Winter's Tale' follows King Leontes of Sicilia who becomes consumed by envy when his friend, King Polixenes of Bohemia, visits him and his wife Hermione. A marriage is destroyed, a child is abandoned, and hope lives on within two lovers. 'Swan Lake' just might be the quintessential ballet. Featuring the unforgettable corps de ballet moving in magical unison as the majestic, glimmering swans, this romantic fable of dreamlike transformation, set to Tchaikovsky's glorious score, inspires awe and wonder.
