Lot No. 1


Dolce & Gabbana, Swarovski tiara design by Dolce & Gabbana for the debutantes of the 2018 Vienna Opera Ball, with labelling and original signatures


Dolce & Gabbana drew inspiration for the richly detailed headpiece from Mozart’s opera “Le nozze di Figaro”, in particular, the words sung in the eighth scene of the first act: “Giovani liete – fiori spargete!” (“Happy maids, scatter flowers!”). This image has been poetically reflected in the floral design of the tiara, where delicate blossoms meet organic curved leaves created using 702 Swarovski crystals and “Xirius Chatons” in Crystal and Golden Shadow shades as well as six rose-coloured enamel flowers. Framed.

The auction will take place as part of a closed event, please submit your absentee bids on the Dorotheum website.
