Paul Smith, known for his sense of fun and optimistic attitude, has designed a bottle for Evian which will be on sale in limited amounts until Christmas.

It is a nice glass bottle with colourful stripes around the top, printed with organic ink!

The annual Evian designer bottle tradition began in 2008 with a limited edition bottle designed by Christian Lacroix, followed in 2009 with Jean Paul Gaultier.

Forget the $100 water bottle from the super-glam bottled water brand Fillico Beverly Hills. This time, one company has just launched the world’s most expensive bottle of water which costs £1,000 ($1,571) despite the global credit crisis.

Made using the natural spring water filtered through the geologically famed Wenlock edge, in the heart of the Shropshire countryside, the pricey bottles are encrusted with over 6,500 Swarovski Crystals.

Only six of the specialist “bling” bottles have been made, each of them taking over a week to produce.

Every year during the holiday season Evian, the World’s Most Luxurious Natural Spring Water, teams up with a European artist to create a special bottle. Over the years the pieces have become real collectors pieces.

Last year for Paris Fashion Week Evian partnered with Christan Lacroix and this year they worked with high fashion designer and Hermès Creative Director Jean Paul Gaultier.

He uses two unique creations – a “Prêt-à-porter” and an “Haute Couture” version – to crystallise the very essence of Evian water with his wonted talent

Bling H2O, was supposed to be the most expensive bottle of water until we found “Fillico Beverly Hills“, a premium line of spring water from a company name Vieluce in Osaka, being sold at $100 per bottle.

Fillico Beverley Hills contains water from a natural spring at the foot of Mount Rokko in Kobe, Japan. The spring is very famous for producing excellent water for Sake production and each bottle contains 750 ml of precious liquid. Due to the limited supply of spring water, only 5,000 bottles are sold each month.

Of course if paying $100 for a bottle of water is not enough, you can also buy the limited edition called “the King and Queen versions” which cost about 230$ each.

Their caps are more like crowns of royalty and are decorated with Swavorski crystals and carved with gold paint.

Bottled water isn’t just expensive but a major waste of resources as well… so, once it is empty, you can refill your precious bottle in your kitchen, for free ^_^
