New York Fashion Week rarely disappoints. The biggest event in the fashion calendar was back once again, and Preciosa crystals appeared in two spectacular shows. 

Designer duo favourite Aurum-coated Preciosa crystals on denim mini dress

The Blonds


Our favourite designer duo struck a dazzling pose with their runway looks embellished with hundreds of thousands of their favorite Aurum-coated Preciosa crystals. All that glitters was definitely gold at The Blonds’ SS 2023 presentation, which culminated in a surprise, cupchain-clad performance by Saucy Santana. More than a dozen head-turning, Preciosa embellished looks illuminated the catwalk worn by a star-studded cast that included model and activist Munroe Bergdorf, beauty influencer Nikita Dragun and R&B artist Cassie. Among the most notable pieces were a black mini dress covered in The Blonds’ logo written in gold Monte Carlo crystals and a fully crystalized jumpsuit in Blue Denim.
