  Rachel Zegler and Kristina O’Neill host a chat at Swarovski

Swarovski’s flagship store on Fifth Avenue shone a little brighter on Tuesday night, courtesy of Kristina O’Neill and Rachel Zegler. The jewelry brand hosted a conversation between the Sotheby’s head of media and Ballad Of Songbirds and Snakes star on its candy-colored second floor, where the pair discussed topics from style inspirations to Zegler’s upcoming roles in Broadway’s Romeo and Juliet and Disney’s live-action Snow White.

“What’s really wonderful is the ability to collaborate with her and have really wonderful collaborative conversations,” Zegler said of her relationship with stylist Sarah Slutsky Tooley. “There’s things like press tours that we try to tell the story and try to link up with the movie that we’re promoting, which is really wonderful. But then when we have days like today and moments where you want to have fun, she knows the things that I gravitate towards and also encourages me to step out of my comfort zone, because fashion is a form of self-expression. If you know the brands and you know the things you like, that’s great, but what’s really wonderful about Sarah is that she pushes me to take the next step. We have such wonderful relationships that we’ve formed over the years, and that includes the relationship we have with one another—and she’s family.”
