Crystal Clear Lalique brings its exquisite fine jewelry and home décor to The Shops at Crystals. This January, the crystal maven Lalique celebrated its Las Vegas debut with a sprawling new boutique at The Shops at Crystals. Designed by Lady Tina Green and Pietro Mingarelli, the duo behind the brand's Art Deco–inspired home collection Lalique Maison, the 2,200-square-foot space features the house's tiered chandeliers and furniture, as well as a black crystal sound system created by musical artist Jean Michel Jarre. The shop offers all of the house's crystal collections, including interior design, home objets, fine jewelry, art, and fra- grance. Sculpted crystal vases in amber and midnight blue and sparkling, gem- encrusted cocktail rings, from the new Soulmates fine jewelry collection, are among the most noteworthy items this season.

This is the second year that the Springs Preserve Foundation will celebrate the strides made by designers in using environmentally- friendly materials, at a fashion show on April 30 at Springs Preserve. A broad sample of sustainable styles will be seen on the runway, from wearable art to commercial fashions that employ eco-conscious methods and materials and socially responsible manufacturing. A selection of the wearable art pieces will be displayed after the show in Springs Preserve's Big Springs Gallery as part of a public exhibit running from May 17 to July 13. "We're known as a place that showcases architecture and water initiatives," says Springs Preserve's curator of exhibits, Aaron Micallef. "But part of our mission is to show that sustainability can be translated into everyday living." Visitors to the exhibit will see a variety of designs that use innovative methods to extend the life of the material, according to Micallef. "Things that are recycled don't necessarily have to be utilitarian," he says. "They can be made into things of great beauty." 333 S.
