Kim Kardashian dazzled alongside celebrity friends Gwyneth Paltrow and Ashley Graham at the opening of Swarovski's new Fifth Avenue flagship store in New York on Tuesday night.
Kim was seen covered head to toe in crystals at the event which also celebrated the release of the Swarovski X SKIMS collaboration, an exclusive collection of body-contouring jewellery and shapewear adorned with crystals.
The Kardashian sister previously told ELLE that working with Swarovski's creative genius, Giovanna Battaglia Engelbert, was a dream come true. “This collaboration was a natural pairing and dream for me, as I've always been a Swarovski girl,” she said. “I love pairing the sportier cotton pieces with the sparkle and extravagance of the dress drenched in crystals with jewellery.”

Proud Kim said she couldn’t pick one favourite piece from the collaboration and hoped customers would love the glamourous collection as much as she does. “The Swarovski crystals and the glamour of the brand make me feel so happy,” the businesswoman told Elle. “I hope our customers feel the same way when wearing the collection,” she noted.
“Merging jewellery design and ready-to-wear is something I've always wanted to do, so pairing Swarovski's expertise in crystals and jewellery and Skims' innovative fabrics made total sense.”
“It is covered in hundreds and hundreds of crystals with the intimates and the body jewellery,” added the Vogue cover girl. The Swarovski X SKIMS collection dropped on Tuesday on the official SKIMS website and in select Swarovski stores across America.
