    Karen, the Ocean Tiara of Princess Charlene came across my mind, I admit. How clever of you ...
    P.S.: I noticed how the young ladies struggled with their high tiaras through the opening polonaise and felt somewhat sorry for them ... 'suffering' in the name of beauty

    : I'm not a fan of this tiara, it does
    : remind me of a pageant tiara. I can see
    : though, how it would sparkle in the lights
    : and the young women's dark hair would show
    : off the tiara. It almost could go along with
    : Charlene's Ocean necklace/tiara. Thanks for
    : posting this event Veronika.

    : THE PRINCE AND THE EMPRESS - 'Sissi's Blue
    : Dreams'
    : Swarovski, a prince, and memories of an
    : empress are adding sparkle to a grand ball
    : tradition.
    : Jewelry designer Prince Dimitri of
    : Yugoslavia, who first demonstrated his flair
    : for creating fabulous
    : diadems in 2012, is responsible for the
    : design of this year’s tiaras. His latest
    : piece was inspired
    : by Austrian high nobility: “I have always
    : loved Winterhalter’s portrait of Empress
    : Elisabeth with
    : diamond stars in her hair. I went one step
    : further in the design for my latest piece.
    : My thought
    : was that if Sisi were around today, the
    : stars she would dream of would probably be
    : blue.” Sparkling
    : blue crystals will therefore reflect the
    : light of what is probably the most beautiful
    : ballroom
    : in the world, proving once more that
    : Swarovski crystal is just as important a
    : part of the Vienna
    : Opera Ball as the waltz.

    : I don't care for the star-design in the
    : first picture very much
    : (reminds me of a beatuy pageant) but seeing
    : the tiara today at the grand opening
    : (of our state ball) changed my mind to some
    : extent. I looks wonderful on dark haired
    : ladies - pity they didn't change the
    : colour of the velvet at the base.
