At Ines Di Santo, that song blared from the speakers ... as Swarovski crystal beads added pop to the silhouettes. Di Santo showed a few of her big-hearted ball gowns with tucks and layers. She still likes to go for the masterpiece — at times using silver lame and elaborately shaped backs (crystal-encrusted keyhole, anyone?) However, this season she brought down the volume on several gowns for a more streamlined look that let the sprinkles of crystal and flower and bow details speak for themselves to flattering effect. These were the diamonds that shone brightest.—Michelle Preli
