Add the shooting lines and it’s not only sparkling, but bright as fireworks. This luxurious dress certainly makes Lin a winner among all the tube-dress wearers this season.

千嬅身穿棗紅色Givenchy圖案長裙，配上一對巨型 綠寶石耳環，極富民族色彩，而且all back髮型夠俐 落，不過裙擺略嫌過長，遮蓋了一對boot，但整體 造型感覺很新鮮。

This blue nightgown with black flowers is very three-dimensional. The flowers appear to be floating in the middle of a flowing river, giving an overall look that is full of movement. The colour of the dress is extremely sharp and makes the person wearing it look tough and strong, providing a different feel than Baby’s usual girly look.

Miriam Yeung wears a maroon, patterned maxi dress by Givenchy. Add a pair of oversized emerald earrings, and the resulting look is very folksy. Further, her pulled-back hairstyle is very smooth. The only drawback is that the skirt is a bit too long, covering her boots, but the overall look is refreshing.

撇除膠面，金像影后妮歌潔曼貴氣永遠都保持不 變，這身晚裝完全體現出來，由珠寶裝飾砌成，還 有頗誇張的飛鳥圖案，但效果居然是搶鏡得來不嫌 太高調。

身任2015 American Music Award大會司儀的J. Lo， 頻頻換裝看得人眼花繚亂，怎樣也好，要夠性感才 是她的特色，話說 「籮霸」 不止愛突顯後圍，事業線 一樣澎湃，這個性感盡露的紅地氈look最適合她。

除了幾位主角，新一集 《飢餓遊戲》 的配角演員，在 宣傳期間的打扮亦甚有驚喜。譬如Willow身上這身 白色傘型裙，裙身加了不少水晶同珠仔裝飾，簡單 得來不會太單調。

If you look beyond the stiff smile, the everlasting elegance of Oscar-winning actress Nicole Kidman is immediately revealed. This evening gown is a wonderful example, made from a mosaic of jewels. It also features an exaggerated flying bird pattern and the effect is eye-catching -- but not too much.

As MC for the American Music Award 2015, J. Lo, frequent costume changes are dizzying. Yet, whatever she wears enhances her trademark sexiness. Not only is her curvaceous self bursting out of the seams, her career trajectory is equally explosive. This super-sexy red carpet look is most suited to her.

In addition to the superstars, the new Hunger Games’ supporting actress also shows some pleasant surprises during the publicity appearance. For example, Willow Shield’s white umbrella dress has many crystal and bead decorations adorning the skirt. It’s simple, but not monotonous.

裙 Dress：Alexander McQueen

網評：很成功地搶眼，掌握得很好。 Web buzz: Successfully eye-catching, but still balanced.

網評：不性感就不是她！ Web buzz: It’s not J. Lo if it’s not sexy!

網評：不會太隨意亦不會太搶，剛剛好！ Web buzz: Not too casual and not too overdressed — just right!

High EQ and very patient Now in her sixth year of showbiz, she says she thinks the biggest change she has undergone is the drastic elevation of her emotional quotient.

“I was already being constantly followed before entering show business. I was extremely unhappy then, so I stayed stoic to deal with the attention. After a while, I realized that I had to have better EQ in order to avoid embarrassing shots. I reminded myself to look at the camera, say ‘hi’ and say ‘bye.’”

More than just achieving a higher EQ, she has also learned to be thankful.

“In the past, the paparazzi would barge into the restaurant I was in and take shots without asking. These recent years, they have been very good with me. They’ll say ‘Sorry, we are just doing our job’ before they shoot. I count myself lucky. Being in showbiz, we have to accept this. One can’t complain.”

Taking time to love Having a mother and a brother who are good cooks, she has also inherited a love of things culinary.

“If I hadn’t got into showbiz, I would have opened a restaurant. I love seeing people enjoy food.”

However, she concedes her passion probably isn’t as great as that of her brother, nor her mastery in the kitchen.

“Cooking is trial and error. If it doesn’t work, my brother wouldn’t mind throwing it all away and start again. I hate wasting food, and having no one to share with.”

For now, she will leave it to fate to find love, and it’s important to her that it feels right.

“Whether the right feel becomes apparent through a word, a glance, or an unexpected moment. It has nothing to do with the circumstance or material things. If he’s Mr. Right, it will feel romantic, even if he’s standing in a pool of mud.”

Her dad and brother represent two generations of heartthrobs.

Would she use them as templates when choosing her man? She cuts in to protest before I can finish the question.

Talisman: the wondrous sphere a stunning creation, this unique piece of high jewelry is a striking white gold-articulated sphere, symbolizing the genesis of talisman. Featuring a stunning central rough diamond, surrounded by a threedimensional sequence of rare diamonds, the Wondrous Sphere embodies the fusion of light and colours, and enlightenment by its mystical inspiration. motion and movement are embodied by the mobile circles of the creation, reminding us of man’s quest for discovery. this one-of-a-kind jewelry piece offers the soft poetry of an artistic palette of colours and bold graphics in its design; the rough and polished diamonds, the white and the coloured ones. the rich universe of diamonds, featured in a three-dimensional sphere, are delicately articulated around a captivating 13.17 carat, rough-cut diamond. each ring tells an individual story built on the diamond sequence.

An homage to diamond’s mystical glory Symbolic of a universal belief that belongs to the history of earth and mankind, talisman is a beautiful homage to diamonds in all their mystical glory. With high jewelry pieces and an array of stunning jewelled creations, this collection is an invitation to become part of the story in which each talisman is intimate and unique. De Beers’ fine craftsmanship is associated with the talisman codes and techniques, developed to set rough diamonds on a classic high jewelry line.

A Cartier diamond ring is what many women dream of. More than just its iconic red ring box, it’s the brand’s heritage that means the most. Its status as an imperial jeweller for over a century underscores the brand’s premium quality. The accumulation of values, aesthetics and sophistication over the years makes its creations classic.

Today, the brand even has diamond experts to hand-select the brightest gems from among 4C (colour, cut, clarity and carats) diamonds. The new collections – Trinity Ruban, Galanterie de Cartier and

這樣的微型機械唱盤Opus 14，機械部件數目驚人，共 1,006個，錶盤直徑是54.7mm，厚度約22mm，放在手腕看來 竟然不算太大。Nayla Hayek的兒子Marc Hayek說，Opus14 設計靈感雖源自於美式五十年代唱盤，錶盤色調都採用美國 舊式公路標記，但骨子裡又跟美國設計美藝又沒有重大關 係。至於為甚麼選址在Baden Baden發布，他說事情有趣在 於，在美國也不容易找到如此舊式酒吧，偏偏在德國Baden Baden的一些舊式賭場和酒吧，都保留著強烈懷舊風味，所以 便選址在這裡舉行發布。當晚品牌非常心思縝密，預先安排 數十部精緻老爺車接載客人由酒店前往現場，走進場館內， 貼著多幅五十年代天王巨星如占士甸、伊利沙伯泰萊等巨型 海報，又有多部舊式彈珠供現場賓客玩樂，而Opus14就是 被安放在其中一部舊式彈珠機內，賓客們要投進特別硬幣， 彈珠機才會放光讓我們可以正式觀看Opus14，同時，Harry Winston大老闆Nayla Hayek又請來美國天王級歌手Robin Thicke親自來到德國造勢，更委任他成了Harry Winston的宣 傳大使，現場即席載歌載舞，整個場景讓我們彷如穿越時光 隧道，讓我們置身上世紀五十年代的風情萬種。 我以為，Opus的發布形式將會跟Opus系列自身一樣，每 年都會在尋求革新和突破。而且自從Harry Winston被Swatch Group收購以後，Opus的技術開發毫無疑問將會得到更強大 的支援，以往先看prototype，實貨不知何年何日才有正式到 手的日子將不復再。Opus 14玩味創作固然開天闢地，更重要 突破是Opus不再先推概念，以往在Baselworld看罷Opus，用 家們都必定要忍耐心焦如焚，今回Opus 14錶一發布，翌日已 在歐洲公開有售，這樣的超級生產力量，比Opus的機械玩味 更具噱頭。Opus 14只造五十枚，售約$400,000瑞郎。

The Opus 14 mechanism has an astonishingly number of parts -- 1,006 in all. It measures 54.7 millimetres in diameter and is 22 millimetres thick, yet doesn’t look at all chunky on the wrist.

Hayek’s son, Marc, said Opus 14 is inspired by the jukebox and the colour tone of the dial evokes old American route signs. But in essence, it doesn’t have much to do with American design aesthetics.

As to why Baden Baden was picked to unveil the Opus 14, Marc said it was funny that old diners are hard to find in the U.S. these days, whereas such establishments with a strong retro feel still exist in the Black Forest spa town near the French border.

The arrangements for the media event were well planned. Dozens of vintage cars ferried guests from the hotel to the venue, which was decorated with posters of iconic movie stars, such as James Dean and Elizabeth Taylor.

As well, pinball machines were stationed there for guests to enjoy. The Opus 14 was set in one of these and guests could take a look by inserting a token to light up the machine. Singer Robin Thicke performed live at the event and was named brand ambassador.

The release was reflective of what the Opus series is all about – innovation, time after time.

With the brand’s acquisition by Swatch Group, there is no doubt the Opus initiative will get enormous support.

In the past, after viewing Opus at Baselworld, connoisseurs had to endure an excruciating wait period for the product to hit the market. This time, Opus 14 was released in Europe the day after the media event and this probably drew as much attention as the novelty of the mechanism.

Opus 14 is produced in a limited edition of 50 pieces, at SF400,000 each.

interview 專訪Tissot全球總裁François Thiébaud Ti sso t去年尾才在瑞士兩座雪山之間，造了一 條「Peak Walk by Tissot」，未夠一年，品牌又造了 座「First Cliff Walk by Tissot」的懸崖步道，同樣海 拔3,000米，卻有著截然不同的體驗。今次有機會與 Thiébaud先生詳談，自然要問一問為何品牌那麼喜 歡向「高」難度挑戰，他笑說正是因為瑞士擁有美麗雪 山，品牌希望藉著這類建設，讓更多人感受到雪山的 美景。

Tissot CEO François Thiébaud In October 2014, Tissot opened the Peak Walk by Tissot, a 107-metre-long pedestrian suspension bridge linking two Swiss mountains. Nine months later, the brand added the First Cliff Walk by Tissot at the dizzying height of 3,000 metres.

These offer two very different altitudinal experiences.

They naturally came up in an interview with Tissot CEO Fraçcois Thiébaud, a great opportunity to find out why the brand challenges new heights. He said it’s the brand’s way of letting more people experience the magnificence of the Swiss Alps.

他更展示戴在手上的腕錶，正是為新懸崖步道所造 的特別版T-Touch，不止錶盤上有雪山的剪影，錶背同 樣印有雪山及山中火車的圖案。公關們都表示首次見到 這枚腕錶，絕對新鮮滾熱辣，但未知何時能正式發售。 除了對雪山的鍾情，品牌對各項運動亦同樣非常 熱衷，10月份簽下一紙2億元六年贊助合約。新合約 內容，Tissot將為聯賽設計一個全新的計時器，另外在 2016-2017球季起，在29個球場的24秒投籃計時鐘將 看到品牌的名字，這是品牌首次成為北美運動聯賽贊 助商。到時大家看NBA比賽時，可要落足眼力了。

The T-Touch on his wrist is a special edition, commemorating the cliff walk.

The silhouette of the snowy mountain is displayed on the dial and the motifs of the snowy mountain and the mountain railway are shown on the caseback. It was also the first time the media got to see the watch in person. No date has been set for the watch’s official release.

Other than the Alps, the brand is also involved in sports sponsorships. This past October, it signed a six-year, $200 million deal with the NBA, becoming the basketball league’s first official timekeeper.

Under terms of the agreement, Tissot will develop a new timing system for the NBA and put its branding on the shot clocks in each of the league’s 29 arenas,

Thiébaud表示這次絕對是品牌最大的一份合約： 「我們一共簽了6年，我希望讓大家見到Tissot不止是一

“I hope to show that Tissot is not only a timekeeper, but can help people keep up with the games and to show that time is action,” Thiébaud said.

明年亮相的新腕錶，是Tissot另外與五支NBA球 隊簽約合作，推出五款錶背刻有球隊隊章的Quickster

Having played with stainless steel, rose gold, platinum and DLC coating, it now stars the hardy black ceramic formed of zirconium-oxide composite.

The dial is like a twin of PAM 425, with a formation of dots and indexes. The slow-speed torpedo Black Silura a Lenta Corsa motif is also featured on the minimalist dial. Comparing black with black, this PAM 577 and the PAM532 both have the torpedo motif, but the former’s is bigger by a single millimetre.

The ceramic case is also harder than DLC-coated stainless steel. Both are powered by P.3000 hand-winding caliber, with 72-hour power reserve. The price of $15,000 is reasonable, considering it has the whole shebang of torpedo, the dot markers, the ceramic case and the proprietary mechanism.

Thus, the designer uses natural and sustainable materials as much as possible throughout the project to reinforce the spa house’s natural theme. All building materials are natural, local materials.

In addition to using natural clay to dye the natural wood, the bathroom walls of the spa house are also decorated using natural clay rather than traditional ceramic tiles. As well, on the shower wall in the second-floor bathroom, the designer abandons the traditional tiles and, instead, uses mortar made

The designer also emphasizes that the uniqueness of the log house lies in the use of porous wood, which expands and contracts with changes to temperature and humidity. Thus, when building all-natural log houses, one needs to take time to let the foundation settle appropriately.

Executive chef Daniel Schick has updated the afternoon tea menu to incorporate local, seasonal ingredients, while upholding classic cooking techniques. Here, hot and cold canapés are rooted in traditional flavours, but are given a modern twist. Think of an open-faced Welsh rarebit with aged cheddar, caramelized onion and ale chutney on a toasted buttery brioche, or finger sandwiches with alternating layers of smoked salmon and potted lemon dill shrimp. Even honey mustard glazed ham is slicked with clove-infused pineapple preserves, and egg salad is given a posh upgrade with minced fresh lobster and tarragon crème fraiche.

Scone aficionados, rejoice. Served with housemade apple brown butter, strawberry preserves and Devonshire cream, there are two varieties to indulge in: a rich tea scone that’s short with a flaky crust and a moist, tender crumb; the other is fluffy, tender and studded with candied ginger.

For dessert, there are timeless favourites in delicate forms, such as an eggless clementine posset with a cranberry florentine, caramelized banana coconut cream tartlet, or layered chocolate and chestnut cake.

To drink Tea connoisseurs will appreciate the collection amassed by the city’s oldest tea room. In addition to a wooden presentation box filled with Tealeaves signatures, including the custom King Edward Blend (a malty and floral combination of Jasmine, Ceylon, Yunnan and rose petals), there’s also Sloane’s refined and richly aromatic blends.

The Chopsticks’ Favourite Wines Monsieur Hugel may appear to be blowing his own trumpet when championing the pairing of Alsatian wines with Asian food, but other food and wine experts seem to concur. Hrayr Berberoglu, Professor Emeritus of Hospitality and Tourism Management specializing in Food and Beverage at Ryerson University in Toronto, says that after two decades of considerable efforts, international chefs and gastronomes have concluded that Alsatian wines are the best complement to Asian foods.

由於一位台灣餐酒入口商在一個中式午餐時利用酒塞作筷子座之用， 雨果家族靈機一觸設計了這款筷子座。 inspired by its taiwanese wine importer using a wine cork to support her chopsticks at an informal Chinese lunch, Famille Hugel winery designed this whimsical chopstick holder.

In another study spearheaded by Toronto wine guru Tony Aspler, Alsace Riesling, Pinot Gris and Gewürztraminer are among the most frequently cited wines to go with signature items at a Cantonese banquet, such as roast suckling pig, braised shark’s fin, deep-fried crab claws, wok-fried sea scallop and salt-baked chicken.

與亞洲菜成絕配 大家或許會以為Monsieur Hugel賣花讚花香，但事實上不 少飲食及品酒專家均認同，阿爾薩斯出產的葡萄酒最適合用來搭 配亞洲美食。懷爾遜大學酒店及旅遊學系餐飲科名譽教授Hrayr

The Challenge Behind Asian Food Pairing If the experts make it sound so easy, why is there the impression that wine-pairing with Asian food is such a daunting task?

Berberoglu就曾撰文說，經過20年的研究，不少國際名廚及食家 皆一致認為阿爾薩斯美酒與亞洲美食可說是絕配。

Asian food is diverse. Take China, where regional dishes can differ greatly in seasoning and preparation methods. To illustrate this, think

sweet and spicy sauce in Szechuan, and dry smoked in Teochew.

搭配亞洲菜的挑戰 既然專家們都認為為亞洲美食配搭餐酒實在簡單不過，那為 什麼一直以來大家都以為這是個難題呢 ？

阿爾薩斯地區東面毗鄰德國，由於深受德國影響，所以成 為全法國唯一以葡萄品種而非地區名字為標籤的產酒區。 the Alsace region borders Germany to the east. Because of its Germanic influence, it is the only wine region in France to produce mostly varietally labelled wines.

原因之一是亞洲菜餚種類非常多樣化。單以中國為例，不同 地區的菜式無論在調味及烹調前的預備過程都迥然不同。同樣烹 調魚類，廣東人喜歡以薑、蔥、豉油清蒸；嗜辣的四川人則愛水 煮魚；而潮州人則喜歡煙燻。

A private jet flight may also be comparable in price to a commercial airline ticket when travelliing in large groups. Last September, during a strike

by Air France, we organized a charter of a Fokker 100 for 100 people, from Milan to Paris. The clients were a group traveling together on a scheduled tour, whose commercial flight was cancelled due to the strike.

Airline Cost: A budget airline ticket, booked on short notice, for the next day would have cost between $350 and $400 per person. A standard airline carrier would have charged at least $600 for an economy ticket and $1,300 for a business-class seat. (And, of course, it would be very unlikely they would have been able to book 100 seats together).

Private Jet Cost: The total cost was $35,300, which worked out to $350 per person. This was less than alternative train transport (which would also have added 15+ hours to the journey). The cost would be similar for the same size group, if they were travelling from London to Paris.

Private Jet Cost: The cost for private charter of a Challenger 300 – a typical aircraft for this route – would be around $85,000.

The per-person cost for a group of four on this nine-seater would be comparable to Etihad’s. If all nine seats were occupied, the cost per head would be $9,450.

渦輪螺旋槳式飛機 若你的行程較短，不妨考慮大受歡迎的Beechcraft King Air系 列渦輪螺旋槳式私人包機。這類飛機使用渦輪螺旋槳發動機，常 用於來回短途的小型飛機上。票價並不昂貴，而飛機的內飾還相 當豪華。 真實例子 （四） 若要從紐約飛往波士頓參加一場週末的高爾夫球活動，不妨 與友人一同享用私人包機，自由安排往返時間。 從紐約直飛波士頓，當日來回的民航價格為每人335元。若 選擇King Air渦輪螺旋槳式私人包機，總價為4,700元。若果包機 內坐滿8名乘客，大約每人580元。私人包機的價格雖然較民航稍 貴，但是能夠節省時間、靈活安排行程、與生意伙伴或友人享受 一個尊貴的飛行過程。

空駛航段特價票 有些私人航班會在無乘客的情況下飛行，即所謂的空駛航 段或「空腿」。私人飛機公司會不定時地以特價出售這些空駛的航 段，讓單途的空駛飛機也能夠賺到錢，而乘客又可以用相宜的價 格享受一次私人包機的旅程。 唯一需要注意的是，這些空駛航段特價票都是單程的，乘客 需要自行購買回程票。 真實例子 （五） 從奧蘭多飛往勞德代爾堡，價格最相宜的民航機單人票價大 約為250元，而民航的價格與乘搭空駛航段私人包機的價格相當接 近。 同樣是從奧蘭多飛往勞德代爾堡，乘搭Sabreliner 65型號的 私人包機，空駛航段的特價票為2,800元（原票價11,100元）。若果 飛機上坐滿9名乘客，平分下來每人大約311元。

TURBOPROPS For short journeys, turboprop aircraft – such as the popular Beechcraft King Air – can be very cost-effective. Some offer luxurious interiors and a cabin experience to rival many private jets.

A typical King Air trip for our clients might be from New York to Boston, for a weekend getaway, or a golfing trip. You can make the most of your time away, setting your own itinerary and flying together as a private group.

Airline Cost: A short-notice overnight return to Boston this weekend, non-stop, would cost from $335 per person.

Private Jet Cost: The cost for an overnight return in a King Air would be $4,700. That would mean a per-person cost of $580 if all eight seats were filled. That’s not too far away from the economy airline price, and a world away in terms of flexibility, time-saving and travel experience.

EMPTY LEGS Empty leg flights can quite often compare favourably with airline prices, but as they are repositioning flights, times and availability can be volatile. Therefore, they do require much more flexibility than a normal jet charter.

They are also only one-way flights, so some of our clients like to combine an empty leg in one direction with a return flight by commercial airline.

Private Jet Cost: Recently, we offered an empty leg from Orlando to Ft Lauderdale in a Sabreliner 65 for $2,800 (RRP $11,100). This would be $311 per person if all nine seats are filled.

Airline Cost: The costs can be very close. With short notice, economy airline seat prices start at $250 on a budget airline.

01•室內拍攝白平衡有些小偏移，但拍攝 平面畫作亦可做到立體感，頗有驚 喜。 The white balance for indoor shots looks a little off, but it’s a pleasant surprise that it delivers good depth of field.
