Watch the livestream of the presentation on Facebook The debutantes have been wearing a Swarovski tiara at the opening ceremony of the Opera Ball since the 1950s, and we are honored to collaborate with these fantastic designers to continue this tradition.” Nadja Swarovski, Member of the Swarovski Executive Board, commented: “We are delighted that the 2018 Vienna Opera Ball tiara is designed by our long-lasting collaborators – the incredible Dolce&Gabbana. It is the ultimate crowning of the overall concept ‘Alles Oper!’ – I’m really happy!”Įach year, Swarovski works with a different international designer to impart the debutantes’ tiaras with extraordinary brilliance. The designers selected a passage from my suggested Mozart opera Le nozze di Figaro, which was then used as the inspiration for the tiara design. Moreover, Dolce & Gabbana, whose style I personally love, have not only made my dream of a connection with opera come true, but exceeded my every expectation. Maria Großbauer, Organizer of the Vienna Opera Ball: “Two opera ball dreams have come true for me this year: firstly, that thanks to the outstanding commitment of Nadja Swarovski and her team, we have once again managed to secure one of the world’s most prestigious design houses for the Swarovski-Tiara design for the Vienna Opera Ball 2018: Dolce & Gabbana. The beauty of this is that the thrilling fairy tale experience of the ‘Opernball’ becomes something very special, and not only for the debutants who have the honor of opening the ball with this unique Tiara.” It is so fulfilling to see how good teamwork and enthusiasm lead to extraordinary things – for instance that the ‘Big Players’ of the Fashion and Design world can be secured for the Vienna Opera Ball: last year, Karl Lagerfeld, this year, Dolce & Gabbana. Organized by the Vienna State Opera, the event is the cultural highlight of the Viennese ball season.ĭominique Meyer, Director of the Vienna State Opera: “I am thankful and thrilled about the wonderful relationship between the Wiener Staatsoper and Swarovski – and I am pleased that this grows stronger from year to year. Swarovski’s creative partnership with the famous Vienna Opera Ball has existed since the 1950s. This image has been poetically reflected in the floral design of the tiara, where delicate blossoms meet organic curved leaves created using 702 Swarovski crystals and “Xirius Chatons” in Crystal and Golden Shadow shades as well as six rose-colored enamel flowers. Dolce&Gabbana drew inspiration for the richly detailed headpiece from Mozart’s opera Le nozze di Figaro, in particular, the words sung in the eighth scene of the first act: “Giovani lieti – fiori spargete!” (“Happy maids, scatter flowers!”).
