New York based designer Rosie Assoulin has won the 2016 Swarovski Collective award – Adding yet another star to her eponymous label next to its previous triumph: winning the Swarovski Award for Womenswear at the 2015 CFDA Fashion Awards.
The Swarovski Collective Award was established to embrace creative talents, and in response to her win, Rosie Assoulin attributes the creative partnership with Swarovski to be propitious. She commented that “[w]orking with [Swarovski’s] crystal gives us a creative outlet that would be impossible to access otherwise. It makes designing that much more fun when you are working with such an amazing product which is so versatile. We are truly so lucky to have Swarovski supporting us and what we do, and this award really is such an incredible honor.”
