Last July, I flew to Bangkok for a very special night – the regional celebration of Swarovski’s 120+ year heritage, as well as the launch of their “Urban Fantasy” Fall/Winter 2017 collection. I was lucky enough to be part of such an exclusive event, so I made sure to take a lot of photos from the exhibit.
“Diamonds are for royalty. I want to create a diamond for every woman,” was the quote by Daniel Swarovski that started it all. We have Swarovski to thank for making elegant cut diamonds so accessible!

This season, Swarovski’s effortless style takes on an innovative new turn. The game-changing Swarovski ‘Remix’ Collection empowers women to express every facet of their style and personality. One collection for many occasions, the Swarovski Remix Collection celebrates personal expression and true creativity without limits, allowing the modern Swarovski woman the freedom to create new, different, and endlessly versatile looks.
Each strand is equipped with a magnetic closure at ends, offering infinite combinations and exciting new ways to wear the pieces—as necklaces, this season’s must-have chokers, bracelets, anklets, or even headbands.
Here’s how I styled my Swarovski Remix pieces – all 3 together as a long necklace, 2 as a choker and 1 as a bracelet, and all 3 as bracelets. These innovative bracelets have magnetic closures, making them totally customizable! An endless mix of possibilities depending on your personal style! These game changers should be out in Swarovski Estancia and Robinson’s Magnolia already.
In the Philippines, Swarovski is available in Rustan’s Makati, Rustan’s Shangri-La, Rustan’s Alabang Town Center, and Rustan’s Ayala Cebu. Swarovski is also available through boutiques owned and operated by Stores Specialists, Inc. located at Newport Mall, Robinson’s Magnolia and Estancia Mall.
