Known for her fine art and peacemaking, and more famously her marriage to John Lennon, Yoko Ono is now taking a new spiritual path: collaborating with Swarvoski Elements on a new collection for Vogue's Fashion Night Out.
The Japanese-American artist is the inspiration for a new jewellery line and while some critics might point out that materialism is not the path to true happiness or spiritually, Yoko wants to spread her message through this blinging new collection.
The ‘Key-cut’ crystal range claims to combine her trademark wit with a search for deeper philosophical meaning, and with prices starting at £79 for the small key necklace and going up to £230 for the black half-moon necklace it seems that the meaning of life is just a credit card swipe away.

Designed around the theme of ‘Unlocking the Door to a Better Life’, the collection nods to a childhood spent in war-torn Japan, which motivated Yoko Ono’s commitment to pacifism.
And she says the collection symbolizes her hopes and dreams for our planet.
'Imagine a key that unlocks the door to the forest with its secrets, to the sky with its peacefulness, to the universe with its infinity, to a future with a promise for a better life,' she said.
