Ariana Grande can now add one more jewel to her glittering crown of achievements — that of having co-created an Old Hollywood-inspired capsule collection with the crystal-making giant Swarovski, for whom she also serves as a Global Brand Ambassador and face of the brand. Its 16 distinct pieces are influenced by music and also bear lots of love motifs, making them pitch-perfect investments this Valentine’s Day.
As WWD reports, Grande is someone who prides herself on doing her homework, and for her first collection, she wisely collaborated with Swarovski’s Global Creative Director, Giovanna Engelbert, to achieve the quality and craftsmanship the crystal house is known for. Take the Ariana Grande x Swarovski Drop Earrings, for instance — whose curvature almost resembles that of shell spirals. Featuring a menagerie of materials, including both round and baguette-cut Swarovski zirconia (as well as crystal pearls), they’re ideal for completing a glamorous and sophisticated night-out look.
Other standouts from the capsule are the Ariana Grande x Swarovski Necklace, whose big-and-bold heart pendant surrounded by pearls definitely channels the energy of “Wicked’s” Glinda, a character for whom Grande recently received her first-ever Oscar nomination (in the Best Supporting Actress category) and the Ariana Grande x Swarovski Stud Earrings, with two heart-shaped crystals hugged by clear pavé. Each earring weighs but 0.09 ounces, meaning they’re small enough to be dainty yet radiant enough to woo anyone who lays their eyes on them.
Those looking for the ultimate giftable option in time for Feb. 14 will surely appreciate the Ariana Grande x Swarovski Set, which comes equipped with the aforementioned studs and a smaller heart pendant necklace — yet another crystals-and-zirconia number — that will find its rightful place just below the hollow of her neck.
As for the piece that’s most clearly and unabashedly influenced by music, being the brainchild of one of the most instantly recognizable singers in the world, it’s the Ariana Grande x Swarovski Clip Earrings pair. These ultra-modern and asymmetrical creations flaunt the form of a treble clef in two different sizes: set with baguette-cut Swarovski zirconia and punctuated by a single pearl at the center. Talk about a statement accessory.
Speaking on the capsule collection in a press release, Grande said the following: “I’m thrilled to continue my creative journey with Swarovski by bringing my love for music and self-expression to this shining jewelry collection… I can’t wait for everyone to discover their unique sparkle and enjoy these beautiful pieces as much as I do.”
Grande became Swarovski’s brand ambassador in the summer of 2024, with her first project being its 2024 holiday campaign (which launched that October with the more-is-more theme of “Party of Dreams”). Grande has carried on the same kind of opulence, albeit in a more restrained and “Old Hollywood” kind of way this time, to her newest adventure with Swarovski.
If you’d like to see the collection in action, our guess is that Grande will adorn herself in the sparkle when she walks the Oscar Red Carpet on March 2. Want a taste of the magic for yourself? Shop the capsule collection in select stores and on the site.
