Verve's Luxe List!

Published: Volume 16, Issue 11, November, 2008

Verve brings you some of the trendiest buys in the market

	FLORAL FANTASY The new collection from Piaget interprets the rose through four new varieties: two rings, earrings and a necklace. Reigning supreme in this garden of Eden, the rose ring is an anthem to the eternal feminine with its diamond-pave stylised petals and harmonious curves. The rosebud-shaped ring and earrings suffuse you with a fresh, sensual aura while the rose necklace evokes the subtle alchemy of love. Feel magical.
	EYE FOR DETAIL The Montblanc Eyewear Fall/Winter 2008-2009 is a collection that brings together traditional aesthetic values and modern lines. The mix between contrasting concepts, from curved to straight lines, from smooth to pointed surfaces, from large to small volumes goes through and characterises the entire collection. Turn your neighbours green with envy.
	JEWELLED SPLENDOUR The Kalpa Joaillerie Collection from Parmigiani Fleurier offers an exclusive interpretation of the Kalpa line, entirely paved with precious stones. Crafted in white gold, the Kalpa Grande Joaillerie is studded with brilliant-cut diamonds, totalling 17.2 carats running over its precious case and bracelet. The white mother-of-pearl dial reflects the theme of the new Kalpa ladies’ collections, on which two lone numerals clad in precious stones testify to the passing of time. Perfect for the sophisticate.
	SCENTSATIONAL DUO It’s all the new rage. Calvin Klein’s fragrance ckIN2U has separate scents for him and her. The women’s fragrance evokes notes of pink grapefruit fizz, sugar orchid and neon amber while the men’s has lime gin fizz, cocoa and cool musk. The edgy metallic bottle and packaging complements the scent. Very fresh.
	TIME FOR PERFECTION A stunning watch jewel from Balmain, the Elysées Arabesques range comes with a pretty mother-of-pearl dial studded with diamonds, a polished steel case and a delicate ivory coloured satin strap. The enchanting model captivates with its feminine elegance. The ultimate refinement for your wrist.
	HIGH NOTES Conceived by François Demachy, this energetic, sparkling, pepper-hot fragrance will have your man smelling absolutely divine. With notes like citrus, ginger and buoyed by elemi (a natural gum with lemon-tinged olibanum-like notes secreted by a shrub native to eastern Africa), the essence of rosemary and lavandin, a pinch of vetiver and sandalwood, Dior Homme Sport is an olfactory tour de force. Heady and sensual.
	SPORTY STYLE The TAG Heuer Aquaracer is a sports watch created to provide the accuracy all water sports demand. Inheriting the design and features of the timeless 2000 series, launched in 1982, this jewellery version of the Aquaracer for women has a gold and steel case, a white mother-of-pearl dial set with diamonds (and a bezel set with 35 diamonds. Besides being elegant, it’s sporty with a screw-in crown and a sapphire crystal guaranteeing water resistance to 300 meters. Wear and flaunt.
	TRENDY TIMEPIECE The Hugo Boss Automatics range from Hugo Boss offer bold and elegant designs for watch enthusiasts. Secured to the wrist with either a seven-row stainless steel bracelet or crocodile-embossed leather strap and butterfly clasp, these refined models exude a self-assured and eminently masculine air of vitality. Available in three different stainless steel shapes - round, cushion and tonneau - the collection is built for action. Elegant and sophisticated.
	ELITE ELEGANCE Timond have unveiled their Classic Elite Ladies’ collection of timepieces in solid gold. This contemporary flared watch is extremely feminine with a genuine mother-of-pearl dial that is accentuated with diamonds and a genuine brown leather strap with a fly back buckle. Meticulously crafted, this beauty is guaranteed to give you years of reliable service and accuracy. Stylish and stately.
	TRULY SUMPTUOUS Payal Singhal’s new collection available at Fuel, The Fashion Store, is a potpourri of delectable silhouettes and embroideries in luxurious fabrics for an old world charm. Lehengas, sarees, churidar kurtas and tunics are all woven using vintage fabrics and old English colours to create true-blue royal opulence. Sheer magnificence.
	PRETTY TEMPTATION Seeking nirvana of the material kind this festive season? V M Jewellers just launched their Diwali special, a gorgeous pair of diamond baguette earrings set in 18 carat gold with white polish. Guaranteed to make you a shining, happy diva.
	STYLISHLY SILVER Attempting to accompany those who wish to measure time, Louis Vuitton introduces a new colour, the Tambour Silver Dust. With the Silver Dust dial and navy blue alligator strap, this pretty silver and elegant navy blue model is appreciated for both its functionality and design. Make a statement.
	GEMS OF DESIRE The latest collection called Desire from Hazoorilal Jewellers opens mystical windows to fine and opulent jewellery. Using antique work that’s offset with a contemporary mix of multicoloured precious and semi-precious stones, beads, polkis and enamel work, the range comprises a delectable mix of traditional and contemporary pieces. Aesthetic appeal.
	WATCH WINNER Cerruti 1881 celebrates 50 years of fashion history with its latest range of ‘Hitman’ watches. Comandante has all the key features of a sports watch. Shielded by a rubber coating, it convincingly proves that toughness and sophistication can be two sides of the same timepiec. Odissea, with its broad angular shape and the frugal design of the dial, the strong strap and the polished case is a blend of classic elegance and cool masculinity. Flaunt it.
	HAUTE MALE Swiss watchmaking leader Raymond Weil is diversifying into luxury male accessories. Following the success of their first range – fluted round cufflinks in gold-plate, steel and carbon fibre and a brass/carbon fibre ball-point pen — the brand has recently introduced a range of accessories which respects the aesthetic codes of their previously launched emblematic carbon fibre nabucco chrono model and targets a young, elegantly self-aware clientele.
	COUTURE DRAMA Tarun Tahiliani’s couture collection evokes nostalgia of an age where luxury had no boundaries and craftsmanship reigned supreme. Re-embarking on this journey, the collection celebrates the past in the context of now. Modern construction, draping as light as a feather teamed with crystallised Swarovski body suits, chikankari with velvet on a bed of pearls in the tones of Basra, golden drapes in the tones of the Padshahnama and brocades and jewels complete this line. Be dazzled.
