Recently, Parsons alumni were given the amazing opportunity to essentially work with Swarovski, entering a contest in which they design jewelry and accessories. &#8220;Accessories Design has always been a strong area of interest for our students, and we are excited to partner with leading companies such as Swarovski Elements to provide them with unparalleled access to the best resources and industry connections,&#8221; said Simon Collins, Dean of the School of Fashion at Parsons. &#8220;These types of projects also benefit the industry by tapping into the creativity and innovation of our students, which will be apparent at today&#8217;s trends presentation and competition announcement.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The contest was based on the five trends for Swarovski Elements Autumn\/Winter 2012\/13 \u201cCITIES.\u201d The design inspiration for this line was based off of the concept of \u201curban life.\u201d The trend analysts at Swarovski Elements have identified five new moods that riff on a city theme. These were moods that were thought to exert a powerful impact on the design world in particular. These cities include Chicago (Classic), Copenhagen (Harmony), Shanghai (Romantic), Berlin (Progressive), and Istanbul (Glamour).\u00a0 All five cities harbor selective modes of influence on the world of design in moments in time.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_5825\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-5825\" href=\"http:\/\/fashion.parsons.edu\/2011\/11\/01\/parsons-alumni-for-swarovski\/runnerup_chicago_gousche_kim_handbag_img_1268_large\/\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5825\" class=\"size-large wp-image-5825\" src=\"http:\/\/fashion.parsons.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/RUNNERUP_Chicago_Gousche_Kim_handbag_IMG_1268_large-590x393.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"590\" height=\"393\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-5825\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Runner Up Design By Gousche Kim.
