2013 DW euromaxx highlights

The Fashion Festival in Hyères
Young fashion designers meets style icons from the international fashion scene in southern France: At the annual festival in Hyères, they come from all over the world to present their work before a high-caliber jury, including Princess Caroline of Monaco and former Vogue editor Carine Roitfeld.

Crystal Cloud
800,000 crystals sparkle on a reflecting water surface - the 1,400-square-foot work of art is the new attraction at Swarovski’s Crystal Worlds in Tyrol. The spectacular cloud is the work of the French-American artist duo Cao Perrot.

Armani Museum in Milan
Staying in Milan, we report on the opening of the Armani museum. It shows the forty year history of the fashion house. The museum goes by the name of Silos Armani. It is located in a former food warehouse.

Tough Mudder Obstacle Race
This is a kind of boot-camp fitness test where the participants are put through the paces. They face many obstacles in the mud, sand and freezing cold water. We tag along to one such race in Germany where the sport is growing by leaps and bounds.

Famous Boulevards: La Rambla
Probably every visitor to Barcelona will stroll down La Rambla at least once. Tapas bar owner Juanito Bayen takes us on a tour from Plaça de Catalunya down to the harbor.
