Jessie, Keely, and I were invited to take a sneak peek of Swarovski's Hello Kitty Collection yesterday at the Four Seasons Hotel. Jessie and Keely both love the colour pink, and I was keen to see the Swarovski's first ever Hello Kitty collection, so we were all rather excited about the fashion show.
We got to the Four Seasons promptly for the evening's cocktail reception, and already there were lots of Hello Kitty fans busy taking photos of the showcased pieces. This event is definitely into details: even their canapés and cocktails were pink and girlish!
When the doors opened for the night's highlight - the fashion show, all the guests rushed in for a good spot near the catwalk. The show featured many beautiful Hello Kitty inspired Swarovski items on renowned Hong Kong models, including Jacqueline Chong.
All of us gathered around the catwalk, and we were busy capturing the pieces on the models. The jewelry were so dazzling will definitely be a difficult decision to make as to which to buy when we get to the stores!
Three of us agreed that we loved the Swarovski's classic clutch best out of the entire collection. Combining clear crystal mesh and white leather, it is cute yet understated, which makes it suitable for our age. The Hello Kitty long 3D pendant is rather attractive as well, since its head and limbs are mobile, much like the teddy bear pendants from Qeelin. The combination of clear and rose colour crystals makes it extremely eye-catching.
Drawing the catwalk to a dramatic close, Jennifer Tse brought out a Hello Kitty figurine with Swarovski crystals applied all over it, each individually by hand. It is a limited edition, with only eighty-eight pieces worldwide and only four of which are available in Hong Kong, so Hello Kitty fans should start rushing in and bid for it. Yes, one of them is up for a silent auction, with proceeds donated to Make-a-Wish Foundation. So giving does literally make one more beautiful!
The collection is very pink and sparkly, reflecting your femininity thoroughly. They also designed bracelets, rings, and earrings, so there will definitely be something suitable for you. What are you waiting for? Go to the nearest Swarovski store and try it on now!
