With more than 3000 pounds of [crystal flown in from Austria](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swarovski-and-erewhon), the ballroom at the hotel was practically dancing with light. The Swarovski Golden Globe Stage was masterminded by production designer Brian Stonestreet and included several [massive chandeliers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polaris) overhanging the crowd. I hope they produce a 3-D version of the award show. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.4/10 - Popularity: 19% | Activity: 14% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxury) > [Ultra Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/ultraluxury) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Crystal-infused Decor:** The use of crystal-infused decor in award shows presents an opportunity for event planning companies to create visually stunning and luxurious experiences. - **Bespoke Chandeliers:** The trend of using bespoke chandeliers in award show stages offers an opportunity for lighting designers to showcase their creativity and elevate the overall aesthetic of events. - **Imported Luxury Elements:** Importing luxury elements like Swarovski crystals for award show stages presents an opportunity for international trading companies to collaborate with event planners and create opulent experiences. ### Where This Applies - **Event Planning:** The event planning industry can tap into the trend of crystal-infused decor and elevate their service offerings by incorporating luxury elements into award shows. - **Lighting Design:** The lighting design industry can explore the trend of bespoke chandeliers in award show stages to showcase their innovative designs and provide unique lighting experiences. - **International Trading:** International trading companies can partner with event planners to supply imported luxury elements like Swarovski crystals, capitalizing on the demand for opulent award show stages. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Crystal-Studded Olympic Leotards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/olympic-leotards.md) - [Maximalist Chandelier Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baccarat-x-harry-nuriev.md) - [Sparkling Illuminated Festive Wreaths](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/starry-wreath.md) - [Crystal-Encrusted Eyewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oakley-x-swarovski.md) - [Limited-Edition Crystal Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stuart-weitzman-x-swarovski.md) - [Jewelry Brand Anniversary Celebrations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swarovski-celebrates-130-years.md) - [Ultra-Luxurious Crystal Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jimmy-choo-crystal-slipper.md) - [Immersive Crystal Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/immersive-crystal-installation.md) - [Opulent Esports Tournament Trophies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swarovski-3.md)
