Swarovski Fashion Rocks was the culmination of a whole weekend of crystal-encrusted celebrations and high-octane glamour, using almost 2 million crystals. In what was almost a giant house party for the world's glitterati, the Swarovski Fashion Rocks guests were escorted from one Riviera style happening to another, starting with a Saturday night party on board the Candyscape, property magnate Nick Candy's yacht. On Sunday night, there was wine tasting at the world's most prestigious wine cellar at the Hotel De Paris a choice of dinner at the boutique hotel, Port Palace, or the magnificent barefoot drinks and supper party, thrown by Topshop, on Philip Green's three storey yacht, the Lionheart, or both, followed by the pulsating Swarovski party at Jimmy'z, Monte Carlo's celebrated nightclub, where guests danced until dawn.
It's only Rock n'Roll, but the message was clear 'Swarovski Crystals - the ultimate fashion rocks!'

Elizabeth Saltzman, Chairperson of Swarovski Fashion Rocks for The Prince’s Trust, says “After 20 years' friendship and watching her immaculate style and fashion in both her private and public lives - from the first purple Prada dress she wore to the Oscars - Uma really wears the clothing, the clothes don't wear her. Uma has charisma and knowledge, it's what makes her so real - she is it - and who better to front such an event.”
Nick Scott, Executive Producer of the event, adds "We are thrilled that Uma Thurman has agreed to co-host this year’s event. Uma is regarded as one of the most versatile actresses of her generation and is renowned for her impeccable sense of style both on and off-screen. Uma’s ethereal personality holds audiences captive worldwide, and her long-standing friendship with Samuel L. Jackson will make the pair an incredible team in hosting Swarovski Fashion Rocks for The Prince’s Trust 2007.”
"Swarovski is proud to sponsor this year’s event," Nadja Swarovski, Vice-President of International Communications for Swarovski confirms, “We are delighted that Uma Thurman will co-host this year’s Swarovski Fashion Rocks. Uma is the ideal woman for the job - she combines style and beauty with natural charisma. Swarovski have a long established relationship with the legends of Hollywood, and it is fantastic that we can continue this with Uma Thurman and Samuel L. Jackson, two of Hollywood’s greats.”
Fashion Rocks for The Prince's Trust: The history
