PHILIPPINE TATLER A VISIONARY TALE Fashion and lifestyle brand Bench can largely credit its dynamic creator Ben Chan for 30 years of market dominance in the Philippines. In a three-cover issue, Philippine Tatler celebrates Chen’s visionary mind and assesses the impact he has made on the retail world. Elsewhere, an in-depth feature reports on the women surviving the conflict in Iraq, while an art story explores the treasures in the Philippine Central Bank’s collections. SINGAPORE TATLER MILESTONE MOMENTS Gracing the cover of the 35th anniversary issue is Tony Tan Keng Yam, who stepped down as president of Singapore in August this year. Tan has been part of the magazine’s legacy ever since its first issue in October 1982, when he was featured in the capacity of minister of trade and…

HONG KONG TATLER BALL 2017 Hong Kong Tatler celebrated a momentous 40 years of charting the lives of the region’s most affluent and influential with a splendid affair at the Grand Hyatt on September 23. From high-wattage personalities to business heavyweights, distinguished philanthropists to society darlings, close to 400 of Hong Kong’s great and good came to show their support for the magazine at the annual Tatler Ball, long one of the city’s most glamorous events. COCKTAIL HOUR Photographers lined the red carpet leading to the Grand Hyatt’s ballroom to capture the arriving guests, who posed against a striking “40” logo before following the carpet to the cocktail reception. There, they were greeted by Edipresse Media Asia executive chairman and CEO Michel Lamunière and his wife, Tamara. As the champagne…

LABEL LOVER SUNNEI Bonded by mutual boredom with their 9-to-5 jobs, Italian friends Loris Messina, 29, and Simone Rizzo, 28, started Sunnei in 2014. The duo came up with their brand name after listening to a song that had the word “sunny” as a refrain, and the joyful adjective has come to define much of their design aesthetic. Sunnei’s clothes are youthful and classic but laidback—the perfect embodiment of “Sprezzatura,” an Italian word meaning “studied carelessness” when applied to describing art and literature, and “effortlessly cool” in the context of fashion. In Rizzo and Messina’s collections, this translates into fuss-free silhouettes, experimental fabrics and playful lines, all of which feel right at home in the modern gentleman’s wardrobe. This isn’t merely trendy fashion, mind: the designers have become known for…

“Beauty has a lot to do with internal confidence, but taking care of your skin and body with a healthy diet is also very important” Where do you find inspiration? On Instagram. I get makeup and skincare ideas from beauty bloggers I follow. But I also love browsing magazines. Books are big sources of inspiration too—so much so that I’ve written one as well, How To Be An Overnight Success. What is your skincare regimen? I like a serum in the morning. I mix our newly launched Rose Gold Serum with an SPF50. That’s my day cream. What is the best beauty advice you’ve ever received? If you’re feeling down, treat yourself to a professional blow-dry. If your hair looks good, everything will follow. Who are your beauty icons?…

Having grown up in southern California and then moved back to Hong Kong around the same time in the 1990s, Winston Koo and Carson Chan are living what some would consider parallel lives. They’ve both established themselves in their fields, have a lot of friends in common, and share a passion for collecting watches. Winston is “the definitive gentleman,” according to Carson. “He’s soft-spoken, always polite, well-mannered and constantly looking out for his friends. He’s always stylish and has impeccable taste. If he hosts a party, you don’t want to miss it.” Unsurprisingly, given his penchant for looking sharp, it’s the aesthetics of a watch that first attracts Winston. Once he finds one he likes visually, he begins his research. “I learn as much as I can about the piece…

The first thing Laura Cheung reveals when we meet on a warm September morning is that she likes to do things her own way—and take risks. And that certainly seems to be working for her, given that she’s built Lala Curio, one of Hong Kong’s most successful interior design and furnishing brands, from scratch in less than five years. We’re sitting in the salon of Laura’s first Lala Curio outlet, in the Star Street neighbourhood of Wan Chai—her fort, she calls it—sipping tea from beautiful ceramic cups. The store is divided into several dreamy rooms, treasure troves of curiosities spanning contemporary furnishings inspired by 18th-century Chinoiserie, slipper sofas upholstered in vintage obis (traditional Japanese sashes), and embellished hand-painted wallpaper (the forte of the Lala brand). The overall aesthetic is…

JOSEPH FUNG, HONG KONG  The director of architectural and design firm SP2 recalls taking a Ferrari 275 for a spin around the Italian countryside One of my favourite road trips was Ferrari’s 275 Tour in 2004, a six-day, 1,670km drive to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the release of Ferrari’s famous 275 model. Ferrari fans from around the world came for the drive, with more than 50 275s taking part. The drive started and ended at the Fiorano Circuit in Maranello, where Ferrari tests all its cars. We gathered at the track on the first day, soaking up the atmosphere and admiring all the 275s. After that, we visited the Ferrari factory and museum. The drive follows roads that the marque used to test the 275 in the 1960s, so…

A performance by Indian singer Toshi Sabri and a runway show by Indian fashion designer Manish Malhotra were just two of the highlights of this year’s Hong Kong Indian Women’s Club diamond anniversary gala dinner, which took place in the ballroom of the Four Seasons. The gala, themed around the famous Indian diamond that graces the British crown jewels, the Kohinoor, also included a live auction, which raised more than HK$3 million for Habitat for Humanity. The funds will benefit poor families in India and Mainland China. THE INSIDER Before sitting down to dinner, the members of the Hong Kong Indian Women’s Club Committee gathered for a group photo For more photos, visit hongkongtatler.com/events…

Ralph Lauren’s name may be synonymous with classic American style in the fashion world, but few may know that the designer also boasts one of the most impressive car collections in the world. From the rare 1938 Bugatti Type 57SC Atlantic worth about US$40 million to the highly coveted 1960 Ferrari 250 GT Spyder, Lauren’s cars have been featured at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts and were the centrepieces of the Louvre’s automobile exhibition in Paris in 2011. His car collection has long influenced his designs. Lauren has often taken inspiration from the streamlined curvature of modern cars to create classic womenswear silhouettes, so it made sense that he opened his garage in Bedford, New York, to serve as the backdrop of his Fall 2017 runway show. The male…

“WHEN YOU LIVE IN NEW YORK YOU NEED TO BE ABLE TO ESCAPE TO SOMEWHERE YOU CAN SWITCH OFF, BOTH PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY” 1 YAYOI KUSAMA She’s one of our favourite artists. We have one of her pumpkins in our Toronto studio. We originally wanted it in our New York apartment but couldn’t fit it in the elevator. We had to beg her gallery for it. It sits next to an Anish Kapoorwe collect quite a bit of art. 2 ABCV We love this New York restaurant. It’s an offshoot of ABC Kitchen by Jean-Georges Vongerichten. The food is all vegetarian and it’s amazing, with influences from around the world. The flavours are so clear and transparent. A perfect spot for lunch or dinner. 3 LONG ISLAND BEACH HOUSE…

Cryptocurrencies are digital currencies that use cryptography to secure transactions and the minting of new units of the currency. Bitcoin was the first to be created, when an anonymous individual known as Satoshi Nakamoto published the underlying technology in 2009. Many other cryptocurrencies have been introduced since then, but the general principle behind most of them is the creation of a decentralised digital currency that allows strangers to conduct anonymous transactions on the internet without needing to trust each other. At the heart of these currencies is a secure database (such as the so-called blockchain that bitcoin uses, for example) that records and timestamps all transactions. This allows all parties to verify and validate a transaction—and by itself is a technology that has many potential applications in traditional financial services,…

BOOT LEGGING The thigh-high boot gets a slouchy upgrade Hands up if you’ve worn a pair of sleek leather thigh-high boots that were oh-so-sexy but then had to spend half the night pulling them up after they slipped down to your calves. We’ve all been there. Thankfully, the winter warrior has received a more practical update this season courtesy of Anthony Vaccarello at Saint Laurent and the creative team at Isabel Marant. With a slouchy silhouette, the boot allows the fabric to scrunch up near the ankles, and is roomy enough to tuck your skinny jeans or leggings into. Why not try pairing plaid boots with a bold jacket a la Off-White? And if you feel the trend is a tad understated for your taste, you could opt for a…

Temptu Air by Temptu What it is: A travel-sized make-up airbrush. Why it’s great: It weighs only 255 grams (compared to 900 grams for a professional model). It’s cordless, can be recharged in your car, and works like an easy-to-handle bottle of spray paint to create a flawless photo-ready finish in minutes. What’s new: As well as applying foundation, you can use Temptu Air with blush, bronzer, highlighter and dye (to touch up your roots). The brand has also launched a new one-step concealer and colour corrector. All of these come in Temptu Air Pod cartridges that are sold separately. Automatic Foundation Applicator by Color Me What it is: A substitute for the Beautyblender and foundation brush that uses sonic pulses to mimic the rapid tapping technique professional make-up artists…

Anne Wang-Liu wears many hats: she is co-chair of the Hong Kong Ballet Guild, and a member of the board of governors for Hong Kong Ballet and Maggie’s Cancer Caring Centre. And for Anne, the last quarter of the year is always the busiest. The Hong Kong Ballet Guild is deep in preparations for The Nutcracker Christmas Benefit on December 10, while the Fayre of St. John’s—one of the biggest fundraising events of the year for Maggie’s Cancer Caring Centre—is scheduled for November 30. Add to that two children, one of whom is in secondary school, and you could say Anne has her hands full. How does she juggle it all? “I try to stay organised and I’m careful with my time management,” says Anne. “The months leading up to…

L’École, Van Cleef & Arpels’ School of Jewellery Arts, touched down at PMQ this September for its third edition, delivering two weeks of hands-on workshops, technique demonstrations, jewellery art history classes, and the annual Legacy Programme. Launched in 2014, the programme brings together two inextricably linked practices: art and jewellery. Eight local artists—each nominated by internationally respected artists or organisations—took part in a competition in September to photograph pieces from the Van Cleef & Arpels Museum Collection and gems from the Mineralogy Museum of the School of Mines at ParisTech. The challenge? To create artwork around a common theme: “The Art of Gems—The Connection Between Raw and Refined.” “We are always looking for ways in which to further evolution in the culture of jewellery,” says L’École president Marie Vallanet-Delhom. “The…

KADIN WONG, 17 The son of actor Michael Wong and former model Janet Ma, Kadin has inherited his mum’s good looks and his dad’s famous charm. An aspiring bodybuilder, Kadin has a wardrobe full of Gymshark and claims to never skip leg day. CHERYL CHAN, 19 Adventurous, ambitious and analytical, Cheryl is pursuing a dual degree in computer science and economics at Brown University. If that challenging degree isn’t enough to persuade you that Cheryl is one smart cookie, she also excelled at her demanding summer internship at Microsoft. The daughter of Michelle Ma and Christopher Chan, the managing director of Fancl, it’s no wonder Cheryl has such flawless skin. ASHLYN KOH, 18 The oldest daughter of Leslie Koh and Kathy Ma, Ashlyn has recently started an architecture degree at…

DOMAINE ZIND-HUMBRECHT PINOT GRIS ALSACE GRAND CRU RANGEN DE THANN CLOS SAINT URBAIN 2015 This is dailed back and dailed in. The purity is superb, with crushed apple, peach, lemon and slate character. Full body, lightly sweet and very fruity but the linear length and focus are impressive. Like tasting freshly picked grapes. Drink now or hold for as long as you like. Energy. Purity. Almost minty finish. From biodynamically grown grapes. 97 points MURÉ RIESLING ALSACE GRAND CRU VORBOURG CLOS ST LANDELIN SELECTION DE GRAINS NOBLES 2015 Enormously dense, dried-fruit aromas, lush and tropical almost to the point of decadence. However, there’s enough acidity to carry this. The true depths are still buried beneath all the richness. If you want to experience them, you will have to wait until…

Family and friends of Harris Chan gathered on Duddell Street for a fashion show to mark Moiselle’s 20th anniversary, followed by an after-party at OnTheList. The show started with a presentation of Moiselle’s autumn/winter collection, then came the Rosamund Moiselle collection, a collaboration between Harris and Rosamund Kwan, and finally the Real People collection, for which some familiar faces appeared as models. Harris had designed looks for this last collection with specific friends in mind. We spotted Antonia Li, Jaime Ku and Natalie Chan-Kwok walking the runway.

Free-spirited urbanites, take note: New World Development has launched a new residential address in Western District. Bohemian House is the latest addition to the Artisanal Movement, drawing on the heritage of Sheung Wan and Sai Ying Pun’s vibrant qualities. The Artisanal Movement, a relatively new direction for New World Development conceived by its executive vice-chairman and general manager, Adrian Cheng, marks a shift away from the gaudy, ostentatious properties of Hong Kong’s past in favour of something sleeker and more sophisticated. Properties under the Artisanal umbrella are design-driven, craft-oriented spaces with bespoke details. Part of their appeal is their shared entertaining spaces, which cultivate a sense of community and connectedness with like-minded individuals. Each property is different: earlier this year, the premium brand launched Mount Pavilia in Clearwater Bay, with…

Wealth today is more global than ever. Investment portfolios seek out opportunities in markets around the world, auctions in London or New York take bids from every corner of the planet, and the wealthy themselves are as comfortable in Hong Kong as they are in Sydney or Paris... However, few private banks have a footprint that is similarly international—equally capable in the US, Europe and Asia. One of the few is Citi Private Bank. Indeed, its roots in Asia are deeper than most so-called local banks. The group’s history in the region dates back to 1904. It has been in Hong Kong longer than the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, in Singapore longer than the Monetary Authority of Singapore. It has also been serving Asia’s wealthy longer than the rest of…

Flipping through photos on her phone, Jennifer Ting might be seated in a conference room in Hong Kong but her mind is thousands of kilometres away in the Borneo rainforest. Stopping at a picture of a wild orangutan, perched in a tree, HSBC Private Banking’s global head of marketing swells with excitement as she recalls her encounter with the critically endangered primate. It is a memory that she will not forget. Fostering this type of connection is the goal of the bank’s Next Generation Sustainability Leadership Programme—to immerse and deeply engage future business leaders in the front lines of sustainability issues, specifically climate change; to turn the abstract into the physical; and to bring home the message about why businesses need to adopt sustainable practices. HSBC launched an internal Global…

Cover star Laura Cheung arrived full of enthusiasm on the dot of 10am for our shoot at New World Development’s new luxury residential development at Clear Water Bay. We headed straight into one of Mount Pavilia’s soon-to-open duplex apartments for hair and make-up, after which Laura changed into the first of many outfits from Chanel’s fall/winter collection—a heroic mission, as it was one of the hottest, stickiest days of the dying summer. With slicked-back hair and a broody lip, Laura looked remarkably fierce but also extremely relaxed. “I feel like myself,” she said. “I love an edgy look.” From structured bouclé grey jackets to Chanel’s signature tweeds in black, navy and grey, Laura wore a predominantly monochromatic palette, spiced up here and there by the brand’s space-inspired creations for the…

More than 500 guests will descend on the JW Marriott Hotel on November 22 for the annual gala dinner of the Women’s Foundation, the pioneering non-profit’s flagship fundraising event. With the theme “Reflections on the last 20—and next 20—years: What progress for women’s advancement?,” this year’s event will pay tribute to female empowerment and the developments that have benefited women since the city’s handover in 1997. The evening will feature a dazzling array of live entertainment, sumptuous fare and a silent auction to aid research and community programmes for disadvantaged women and girls. The keynote address will be delivered by Anson Chan, Hong Kong’s first female chief secretary. Michael Bloomberg, the founder of Bloomberg Philanthropies, will also speak. They will emphasise the importance of STEM—science, technology, engineering and mathematics—education and…

Can’t wait for Christmas? Neither can we. Luckily, you can start injecting some holiday cheer into your wardrobe with a hearty serving of the red checks and stripes that adorn some of our favourite outerwear this season. Worried that donning some bright rouge might come across as ostentatious? Fret not; Versace and Cerruti 1881 offer subtler alternatives in the form of oxblood jackets and red-and-black patterns that look right on trend in a more demure way. Finish up with black, tapered trousers and matching burgundy boots for extra sartorial points. DARE TO WEAR As temperatures drop and utilitarian coats come out, let your trousers take a turn in the (fashion) spotlight. From embroidered jeans to embellished sweatpants, casual comfort has never looked so cool. HAT TRICK Forget the beanie. Whether…

Elizabeth Taylor once said, “Put on some lipstick and pull yourself together.” How right she was. Crimson or scarlet, velvety matte or glossy, a dab of lisptick is sometimes all you need to glam up a look and take over the world (or just have a jolly good time). This fall, double up on that power armour with the beauty trend spotted all across the FW17 runways—the two-toned pout. Think top lips in fiery oranges and bottoms in berry glosses, as painted by Yadim Carranza at Jason Wu to create an ever-so-subtle orange-red effect. Or emulate Val Garland at Giambattista Valli, who took vampy glamour to the next level with a blood-red ombré and ultra-shiny finish. At Andre Gn and Trussardi, gradient tints of dark plum and faded pink harkened…

 Bob Dalgarno is a man obsessed. The object of his fixation is wood—or, to be precise, the oak casks in which The Macallan single malt whisky is matured. Dalgarno is The Macallan’s master whisky maker, and the world’s leading authority on the complex and transformative interaction between wood and spirit, the process that shapes what is often called “the Rolls-Royce amongst malts.” In 2015, he embarked on a journey of discovery, launching Edition No. 1, the first in an annual series of special limited edition releases of The Macallan to explore different aspects of that alchemy. “The driving force behind the Edition Series is the freedom we have to explore different and distinctive casks, some that might not typically be used in other The Macallan whiskies,” he says. Around 80…

Succession is a complex process. It requires looking ahead to the rising generation of a family enterprise, engaging the family in charting the path and encouraging, training and then selecting the rising generation of leadership. The founding generation may find this unexpectedly challenging. It is no longer a question of simply deciding who will succeed them. Family business owners must change the culture of the family to balance the values of tradition with innovation and change. To do this, they need the active participation of all generations. For many Asian family enterprises, it is not uncommon for the senior generation to view the rising generation as unqualified or not ready to govern. Similarly, the rising generation may believe the senior generation will never relinquish their leadership positions. To manage governance…
