The store, spanning 14,400 square feet and two floors, is designed to be a dazzling jewel box of wonders, showcasing the brand’s rich heritage and innovative future.
The flagship store, named Swarovski on Fifth, offers an immersive experience into the brand’s multifaceted universe.

Highlighting its commitment to modern luxury, the store also features fine jewelry collections made with lab-grown diamonds.
Creative Director Giovanna Engelbert conceptualized the store’s design, intending to transport customers into the heart of a crystal. The store’s grandeur is evident from its grand staircase shaped like an octagon, quilted velvet, and silk decor, and the largest crystal chaton ever cut, embodying the vibrancy and energy of New York City.
Swarovski CEO Alexis Nasard views the flagship as a testament to Swarovski’s brand evolution and a beacon that adds more sparkle to Manhattan. It represents the brand’s creativity, savoir-faire, and 128-year heritage.
Michele Molon, Swarovski’s CCO, emphasizes that the Manhattan flagship is a crucial part of the global retail strategy, focusing on a unique omnichannel customer experience. The store aims to cater to every need of its customers with its diverse range of services and products.
Kolja Kiofsky, Swarovski North America’s General Manager, expressed that the flagship store places Swarovski at the luxury forefront. It is a key element in the brand’s growth strategy across North America, resonating well with customers and audiences in the US and Canadian markets.
Swarovski on Fifth is a tribute to the wonder of crystal, featuring giant gems at the entrance and the iconic Swarovski Octagon throughout its design. The store’s first floor hosts a pink octagonal staircase leading to the upper floor, where customers can explore Swarovski’s Created Diamonds and enjoy a luxurious lounge experience.
The flagship store is not just a retail space but a sensory feast, offering customers a world filled with inspiration and magical moments. It stands as a symbol of Swarovski’s legacy and its journey towards a sparkling future.
