According to Swarovski's 2008 spring and summer "Trends," the Art of Being will fuel new designs. They quote early 20th century Surrealist photographer Man Ray, who said "It is the person — regardless of the medium [s]he uses — who makes the work of art into a work of art."

In terms of trend-setting looks, diversity is still in the cards. Everything from quiet simplicity to romantic curves to bling, glitter and glamour are in. So, let your personality flourish in your designs!
