260,000 Swarovski Crystals Were Used In 'Oz' Costumes

Oz: The Great and Powerful finally opens tonight, and not only does it feature a rock star cast (James Franco, Mila Kunis, Michelle Williams, and Rachel Weisz), but it also incorporates costumes designed by Gary Jones (Spiderman 2) and Michael Kutsche (Alice in Wonderland) using Swarovski Elements. Because we can't resist all things sparkly, we got our hands on these exclusive images of the cast in the ensembles. We've also learned that over 260,000 Swarovski crystals were used on the majestic throne in Emerald City and for the witches' outfits and baubles.

Beyonce's Gold Nails Cost £56 For Each

They don't call her Queen B for nothing. She's just wrapped up one of the biggest performances of her career at the Super Bowl, and now she's ready to take on the world.
Dressed up to promote her Mrs. Carter Show world tour the 31-year-old songstress looks every inch the queen of pop with a billowing Victorian updo topped with a crown and golden royal-looking garb.
And it seems there was no expense spared for the stunning shots, with even her gold-tipped nails costing a staggering £560 - that's £56 for each nail.

 
 The golden nails were designed by H&H nails, a company set up by a make-up artist and jewellery designer duo. Make up artist Holly Silius and jewellery designer Hannah Warner joined their professions and have pushed the boundaries to create a range of 2D and 3D metal nails with famous fans such as Rhianna, Beth Ditto, Lianne Le Havas and Jaime Winstone.
