徐子淇這Temperley London長裙，高領和手袖設 計均很是復古優雅，充滿外國六、七十年代貴族感 覺，配上少女化髮型，擺脫她一貫的成熟風格。

許瑋甯穿著的Reem Acra晚裝，上身別緻的釘珠圖 案，配以透視設計，性感得來不落低俗，特別喜歡 希臘女神感覺的袖子，高貴又優雅。

楊丞琳的裝扮暗藏細節，比方是袖子縷空的鈕扣及 腰間cut out設計，均為本來黑實的造型添上特色， 配襯銀耳環和all back髮型，貫徹簡約型格味道。

The high neckline and sleeve design of the Temperley London gown worn by Cathy epitomizes vintage elegance and evokes the noble charm of the ’60s and ’70s. The youthful hairstyle takes years off her usual mature styling.

The Reem Acra gown on Tiffany Ann stands out with a sexy, but not crass, beaded nude bodice.

The classy, chic sleeves add a Greek goddess accent.

See-through buttoned sleeves and a cut-out waist make this black number suddenly more interesting. The silver earrings and the slickedback hair complete Raine’s minimalistic look.

The master touch to Jade’s Alice + Olivia red dress is the red scarf. Her slim legs are on full display and further lengthened by the soft gold heels. It’s a picture of style and sophistication.

A white clean-cut jacket with strong shoulder lines set off the softness of the white jumpsuit underneath and reflect Gigi’s transformation into a successful businesswoman. The all-back hair styling keeps the look clean too.

The asymmetrical hemline of the Johanna Ortiz tuxedo-like white top worn by Stephy looks perfectly simple paired with black pants and silver heels to amply set off the charming oneshoulder look.

Karen Gillan

出席大型活動，很多女星不求造型破格，以穩陣好 看行先。Brittany Snow黑色Deep V長裙，既性感 又優雅，正是示範佳作。

有時選色也反映到女星的品味和實力，假如Jessica Chastain這晚裝是深藍色，便覺平平無奇，現在所 選的淺藍系色調雖不易駕馭，卻讓她成功襯托出奇 幻風味。

《逃出魔幻紀》 女主角Karen Gillan不但有美麗臉龐， 身形還十分高挑，穿上極搶眼的金色晚裝，閃而不 俗，瞬間成為焦點。

Why be outlandish when you can never go wrong with the tried-and-tested on the red carpet? This black deep-V gown worn by Brittany does it all — sexy and classy.

Colour choice is a true test of an actress’s taste.

If this gown on Jessica had been navy, she would have been lost in the crowd. The lightblue choice is not easy to carry off, but she manages to do it and show her true colour.

Karen is blessed with a beautiful face and a tall, slender shape. This gold number on the star of Jumanji is dazzling but not gaudy, and definitely puts her in the spotlight.

Angelic Janine Chang has been absorbed in work the past two years, shuttling between China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, the UK and Germany. No holiday has been pencilled in. But the busier she is, the more she thrives. With a little exercise and a little care for herself, she stays fit and radiant.

奔波於拍攝電視劇、出席廣告代言活動、雜誌訪問和封面拍攝、還有電視劇宣傳的 張鈞甯，給人來去如風的感覺。她自己也承認：「我肯定是工作狂，但都是自找的，因 為我很愛我的工作，不能怨別人。」 她真心享受工作，人生也因工作而有轉變，「工作帶給我很多不同的感覺和改變， 譬如當運動品牌代言人，我便開始做運動；飾演反派角色，讓我感受不同的心情轉折。」

內外保養

張鈞甯的保養貼士，當然不只一個，「因工作經常要出差，在乾燥的機艙，最重要 是保濕，每次坐長途機，我都在睡覺前敷精華面膜，補充水份，然後搽上保濕肌底液。」 她認為內在保養也很重要，雖然忙工作，也不會忽略運動，「今天一早就開始拍攝 工作，但我也堅持早起去游泳，工作時就能精神飽滿。」 游泳、跑步、瑜伽和打坐已成為 她的日常運動。她亦分享了食療進補秘方，「拍戲的時候，我會帶備電鍋來煲湯，例如 紅豆蓮子伏苓湯、白木耳紅棗黃芪湯，都是補氣血的好配搭。這都是朋友試過覺得好， 介紹給我的。」 多管齊下，連一直困擾她的皮膚敏感問題，也得到改善，「我自小對眼淚過敏，皮 膚一接觸到眼淚就會發紅，現在過敏反應已減輕了，但當演員難免要流淚，唯有趕快抹 掉，便不會刺激皮膚。」

workaholic, but I did ask for it because I love to work, so there’s no blaming anyone else.

“Work brings me different feelings and changes. As a spokesperson for a sports brand, for example, I began to work out. To portray a bad person, my persona changed too.”

Such a hectic and demanding schedule has inevitably taken its toll. Chang admits she doesn’ t sleep enough and says constantly wearing makeup has had

像張鈞甯這樣太忙太累，狀態總會受影響，她說自己睡眠不足，加上經常化妝，健 康和皮膚都會變差。「演員是一個很傷心的職業，角色的情緒起伏很大，有時候會覺得 心跳得人很累。」 皮膚長時間被化妝品遮蓋，也熬出問題來， 「我的膚質偏乾，經常化妝 令我更乾，而且片場燈光有強烈紫外線，照得多會曬黑，由今年開始，我每日都喝補充 劑，為皮膚注入膠原蛋白，乾燥問題已有改善。」

“Acting is hazardous to the heart, an emotional roller-coaster. My skin became dry from wearing cosmetics all the time and the UV lighting in the studio darkens the skin. Since the beginning of this year, I’ve been taking supplements daily to replenish collagen and I can see the improvements.”

herself.“As I travel very often, I find it vital to stay hydrated when flying,” she says.

“On every long flight, I will rehydrate with a serum mask and hydrating moisturizer before going to sleep.”

Skincare is important and so is exercise, her hectic schedule notwithstanding. Swimming, jogging, yoga and meditation are all part of her daily routine.“Today’s shooting started very early,’ she says, “but I still got up early for a swim to get an energy boost for work.”

Chang says nutrition also plays a big part. “I will bring an electric pot to locations for making soup like red bean lotus seed poria, or white fungus red date huang qi. Both are good combinations for boosting energy and circulation.

Friends gave me the recipes after they found them effective.”

The multi-level approach is working, and Chang says her lingering allergies have improved too.“I have dealt with allergy tears since I was small. My skin would turn red instantly when touched by tears. Now the reaction has been muted somewhat. It’s hard to avoid shedding tears as an actor. I have to dry them instantly to avoid irritating my skin.”

2014年張鈞甯憑 《武媚娘傳奇》 人氣急升，仙氣十足的 外形，更吸納了萬千粉絲。聽到被稱為「女神」，她立刻笑 說： 「太感謝了！其實我不覺得自己是女神……我相信，只 要找到自己喜歡做的事，每個女生都會變得迷人。」

myself as a goddess. I believe that every girl is enchanting when she is

她心目中的「女神」，光環是來自活得精彩，「我有一 位德國朋友，她的夢想是做家庭主婦，每天到菜市場買食 物，或者收割親手種的蔬菜，為家人準備早、午、晚餐， 做家務，閒時做做木雕，製作餐具，這些全都是她喜歡做 的事，丈夫也很支持她，日子過得開心，她臉上常常散發 著迷人光彩，是我心目中的真女神。」 當演員是她最喜愛的事，所以每談到工作，她眼裡也 閃現著神彩，「噢！我真的非常愛我的工作。剛出道時， 純粹覺得這行業很有趣，讓我去到不同地方，認識不同的 人，演繹不同的角色，打開我心中很多框框。」

“goddess” label, she chuckled: “Thank you very much! I don’t think of doing something she enjoys.

“I have a German friend whose dream was to become a housewife: to go to the market to buy food every day; to harvest vegetables she grows herself; to prepare breakfast, lunch and dinner for her family; to do housework, and then take time out for wood carving. These are all the things she enjoys doing. Her husband is very supportive of her, and they lead a very happy life. She always looks exuberant and, to me, she is a real goddess.”

Acting is what Chang enjoys most, so when we talked about her work, her eyes lit up.

“Oh, I really love working. When I first started, I simply felt that this line of work was very interesting. It took me to different places and I

出道十五年，她早已習慣面對群眾，但小時候的張鈞 甯卻是內向、害羞，連跟老師說話也不敢，要姐姐傳話。 「小時候不單不愛表演，連跟別人說話也害怕，明明背得滾 瓜爛熟的課文，但老師一叫我的名字，人便很緊張，腦中 一片空白，沒法思考。」 出眾外表，讓她在街頭被星探發掘，當上廣告模特 兒，開始時試鏡常常失準，曾經令她很氣餒。「每一次我 都緊張得很，失敗了三、四十次後，忽然醒覺： 『觀眾想看 到的，是我很自在、自然的模樣，只要專注表演，不要多 想，就不會緊張。』 結果，我成功了！」

got to know different people and interpret different roles. It opened up my horizons.”

After 15 years in the business, she is now used to facing people.

It’s a big change from her younger days when she was reserved and shy, so much so that she needed her sister to talk to teachers on her behalf.

“In those days, I didn’t like performing. I was intimidated by speaking with other people. No matter how well I recited a passage, as soon as the teacher called my name, I was so nervous that I

完美主義 由廣告女主角，晉身電視、電影女主角，張鈞甯每 次都全力以赴，但這位生於9月4日的處女座，凡事追求完 美，坦言初當演員時，總是覺得表現未如理想， 「以前一直 在摸索演戲是甚麼一回事，直至到中國拍劇，才漸漸感受 到箇中樂趣，我會為新角色、新作品而興奮期待。」 說到演繹最滿意的角色，她的完美主義又作祟： 「只有 大家比較喜歡或者欣賞的，但暫時仍未有最滿意。」她一直 渴望挑戰更高難度，演繹層次豐富的角色。 「人性很複雜， 沒有一個人是百分百好人或者壞人，我正在期待一個能表 現人性，複雜又多層次的角色。」 她熱愛運動，自恃體能不弱，想挑戰動作片， 「我沒有 認真學過武打，不過常常拍古裝，也學過一些功架，有機 會也希望嘗試做打女，我不怕曬黑啊！」 今天的張鈞甯，很清楚自己想要甚麼， 「我學懂說不， 選擇適合自己的工作，不要浪費時間，人的精力有限，應 該養精蓄銳，以最佳狀態去打一場有意義的仗。」

blanked out.”

Chang’s good looks caught the attention of a talent scout on the street, and she soon became an advertising model. In the early auditions, things often went amiss, which was disheartening.

“I was so nervous every time. After failing 30 to 40 times, I came to realize this: ‘The audience wants to see me as who I am. As long as I focus on acting, and not think too much, then I won’t be nervous.’ It worked in the end!”

COVER STORY

A perfectionist She then moved on from commercials to star in television series and movies, giving it her all at every turn. This Virgo, born on Sept. 4, is a perfectionist who always feels she could have performed better.

“In the past, I was always in search of what it meant to be an actor. I discovered the fun of it only when I went to Mainland China for TV series. I would look forward to new roles and new works.”

When asked which role she was most satisfied with, the perfectionist in her emerged again, saying: “I can only name the roles that people quite liked or enjoyed. I can’t yet say which is the one I’m most satisfied with.

“Human nature is very complex. There isn’t a single person who is a 100-per-cent good person or bad person. I am hoping for a role that expresses the complexities of human nature.”

An exercise buff, Chang says she would love to use her fitness in tackling action movies.

“I haven’t really been trained in martial arts, but I have learned some moves from acting in period dramas. I would like to attempt warrior roles. I’m not worried about getting a bit of sun.”

Chang knows what she wants and isn’t averse to expressing it.

“I have learned to say ‘no’, and choose work that suits me, rather Black felt hat Dress J’ adior woven bracelet All from Dior

than wasting time, for there is a limit to energy and we should channel our energy to take on meaningful battles in tip-top conditions.”

Chanel, Alexander McQueen and Nine Ricci all tend to use a single palette in their clothing. If you think a single colour is too challenging, consider using pink to add layer and colour.

當傳統工藝遇上新科技 德國製造的視光學產品，又豈僅限於鏡片的 範疇？由Harald Gottschling、Daniel Haffmans、 Philipp Haffmans及Moritz Krüger於二○○三年在 德國柏林創立的Mykita，就是一個銳意突破傳統框 架，以創新物料與科技，配合精細手藝製作的時尚 眼鏡品牌，極致簡約的風格，是其一大賣點。 品牌創辦人兼設計師之一的Moritz Krüger這樣 看近年的眼鏡潮流及發展：「我們很留意、亦甚欣 賞韓國眼鏡品牌的產品，其設計及製作技術都具有 很高質素，更有點artistic approach，受歡迎是無 可厚非的。其實日本、意大利及法國等地的眼鏡設 計及工藝，都各具優點，我們希望在傳統的眼鏡市 場中，提供另類選擇。我們會吸收及了解市場最新 的流行元素，但不會為迎合潮流而創作。傳統工藝 的精髓，也是一種啟發。」

2018新季多款主打眼鏡款式，當中包括一系列跟時裝品牌合力 打造的聯乘作品。 The 2018 collections feature a series of cross-over creations with fashion brands.

When traditional craftsmanship meets new technology Founded in 2003 in Berlin, Mykita is an optical brand committed to breaking traditional confines and using innovative materials and technology, together with exquisite artistry, to create fashionable eyewear. It’s notable for its minimalistic approach.

Co-founder and designer Moritz Krüger has this to say about the current eyewear trends and developments: “We like Korean eyewear brands. Their design and production skills are great, somewhat like an artistic approach, which is why they are popular. Japan, Italy and France also have their unique attributes in eyewear design and artistry. We hope to offer alternatives in the traditional eyewear market. We will take in the trendiest elements in the market, but will not create only to fit into trends. We take inspiration from the essence of traditional artistry too.”

跟Maison Margiela合作推出的2018春夏系列，Moritz稱跟品牌創作總監John Galliano合作愉快，細心了解時裝作品的設計概念後，最終順利創製出大家均 感滿意的作品。

Krüger says it was a pleasure to work with Maison Margiela’s creative director, John Galliano, on the 2018 Spring/Summer collection, creating a collection that both are very happy with after taking the time to understand the philosophy of the fashion brand.

An affinity with materials Mykita eyewear is known for its screw-free frames, thus minimizing the weight without affecting the stability and flexibility of the metal frames. The brand has also found a way to produce 0.5-millimetre-thick stainless steel to render the metal frame almost weightless.

“I love materials, and enjoy trying out different combinations of elements,” Krüger says.

After more than a decade, potential partners are lining up to work with Mykita.

“Their designs show no cohesion with the fashion collections, because they were made for the brands by major eyewear manufacturers,” Krüger says. “That’s why brand designers partner with us to create unique products.”

The Collaboration Collections on shelves now are new creations for Maison Margiela, debuted not long ago at Paris Fashion Week, as well as collaborative works with such alternative fashion designers as Bernhard Willhelm and Damir Doma.

賞心悅綠

RICH GREEN text | Sum Chan

新季SS18可說是綠色的天下。穩當的軍綠與墨綠以外，清 新兼且個性十足的rich green，如翡翠、孔雀、薄荷綠等， 帶來更富冒險精神的搶眼綠調。 不是要像天橋示範般全綠上陣，置一、兩件飾品沾一點潮流 氣息，也是賞心悅目。

In addition to army green and dark green, you can also try jade, peacock and mint green tones that are bold and eye-

打造自家供應鏈 位於安特衛普的Tiffany & Co.全資附屬公司Laurelton Diamonds Belgium BVBA，二○○二年成立，主要業務是負責鑽 石的供應鏈，從採購原石，分級、切割，以至打磨拋光等工序， 以「一條龍」的模式營運，確保每顆鑽石均達品牌標準，目前約有 100名員工。

Building own supply chains Laurelton Diamonds Belgium BVBA, with headquarters in Antwerp, was set up in 2002 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tiffany & Co. It maintains a one-stop operation of the diamond supply chain, from mining raw diamonds to grading, cutting and polishing, to ensuring each and every diamond meets the brand’s exacting standards. About 100 people work at the headquarters.

01•在毛里裘斯廠房工作的員工，現時約有275人。 The Mauritius factory has 275 workers 02•鑽石分級 （Grading） 的首個步驟是Fluo，即利用熒光燈分出鑽石的透白亮度。 The first step of diamond grading is Fluo, using fluorescent lamps to ascertain a diamond’s translucency.

03•在電腦熒光幕可見，一顆鑽石在進行切割前，是如何構思及規劃。 A computer screen shows how the cutting of a diamond is conceived and planned.

04•每顆蒂芙尼鑽石，從篩選直至完成整個加工程序，期間必須經過不少於1,300次的品質 監控。 Each Tiffany & Co. diamond, from selection to final polishing, has to go through a rigorous quality process with 1,300 checks.

05•鑽石的打磨工序，須配合專用的機械及精巧的人手工藝。 The diamond polishing process requires specialized machines and deft craftsmanship.

06•取自大自然的鑽石，經多項嚴謹工序的篩選及加工，方可成為閃爍耀眼的瑰寶。 A diamond mined from nature has to go through stringent selection and processing before it becomes a dazzling piece to treasure.

the one-minute disc is fitted with its own barrel and gear trains, so that

accuracy is maintained even if it jumps every 60 seconds. the 45-milimetre red gold case, and the white lacquered dial, look clean with black numerals and blue hands. limited to 250 pieces, it is powered by the hand-winding Cal. 94200, offering 60 hours of power reserve.

穿長褸耐看的男人，香港代表人物只能想起周潤發一 個，《英雄本色》後，一切長褸統一稱為「Mark哥褸」。 縱然不是每個人都像周潤發那樣高大，但「一寸長一寸 強」，長褸，始終能夠彰顯氣勢。以韓國品牌Wooyoungmi 的駝色大褸為例，簡單俐落又容易配襯；Bally的絨毛領 子、Hermès的千島格紋雙扣設計、Gucci的紅白巨型直紋 都是抵禦寒流的上乘選擇。Prada與藝術家James Jean合 作的漫畫圖案長褸，讓大男孩走入科幻世界之餘，還勝在 夠薄身，適合乍暖還寒的日子穿上。 Hong Kong icon Chow Yun-fat wore a long coat nicely as Mark in the 1986 blockbuster A Better Tomorrow, and that style of coat has been known as “Brother Mark’s coat” for decades since.

Even if you’re not as tall and suave as Chow, length still matters. A long coat enhances one’s stature by shaping an imposing figure. Great examples include: Korean brand Wooyoungmi’s camel-coloured coat, which is simple and easy to match with anything; Bally’s felt collar; Hermès’s

At the same time, Prada’s collaboration with artist James Jean has yielded a comic-pattern long coat, which can bring out the little boy in any man. However, this coat is somewhat lightweight, so it’s best suited for days that are cool but not supremely cold.

Thus, the Fall/Winter collection is often more exciting than the Spring/Summer one. This Fall/Winter collection’s theme is “Cut Up”, which attempts to translate Sacai’s signature mix-and-match style

in a new way, extending the concept from the fabric to the style.

For example, Abe has incorporated a grey velvet suit panel into a green nylon MA-1 military jacket — a clever use of two contrasting fabrics.

“Cut Up” is a signature display of the brand. This time, a large number of pieces have been dissected and reconstructed. One example is a mediumlength military jacket with white fur. The sleeves contain a charcoal grey herringbone pattern, while the piping around the coat is a military green cloth, which ties the whole project to the military motif.

Scents Mugler似乎對A字情有獨鍾，1992年推出香水Angel， 此後踏上他的香氛之旅。粉藍色的星形瓶身，蘊含巧 克力甜香的Angel在當時的香水市場絕對是突破傳統 之作，然而那時的市場是以八十年代的華麗香水為王 道。相比Opium、Obsession及Shalimar，Angel絕 非主流。惟其甜品般的香氣開闢了一個全新的香水類 別，現今稱為美食調。 Mugler seems to have an affinity for the letter “A”.

His fragrance odyssey began with the launch of Angel in 1992. The baby blue star-shaped bvottle with the chocolatey scent was a pioneer — the market then was dominated by the grand perfumes of the ’80s. Compared to Opium, Obsession and Shalimar, Angel was an outlier. Indeed, the dessertlike concoction sparked the creation of a new fragrance category, now known as Gourmand.

男士版本的Angel於4年後面世。A*Men繼續以巧克力為基調， 糅合焦糖、咖啡、雲呢拿及蜜糖成就美食調的誕生，甫推出便熱 賣，受歡迎程度跟女士版不相伯仲。 13年後的2005年，Mugler為大家帶來Alien香水，充滿神秘感 的紫晶瓶身，盛載矜貴的茉莉花香。每1公升香氛要用上800萬朵雙 瓣茉莉花才能製作出來，花香濃郁豐饒，難怪能觸動女士們的心靈。 再過了13年，Mugler今年又為大家帶來驚喜。最新作品名為 Aura，名字同樣以A為字首，但瓶身設計靈感卻來自另一個字母。 Mugler娓娓道出他的靈感來源：「我一直尋找一個可代表所有生 物的象徵，展現生命中野性又神秘的力量，這M字的心形香水瓶是 最佳代表。M comme Aime (意謂：M就是愛) ！這是生命中的魔幻

01• AURA Eau de Parfum分別有90、50及 30ml可再添加噴霧瓶裝。亦提供保濕乳液 及沐浴乳。 AURA Eau de Parfum comes in 90, 50 and 30ml refillable sprays. A body lotion and shower milk is also available.

02• 適 逢Angel面世25周年，Mugler跟La Maison du Chocolate合作，以香水為靈感 設計出一系列4款的巧克力。 On the 25th anniversary of the launch of Angel, Mugler teamed up with La Maison du Chocolate to develop a collection of four chocolates inspired by its scent.

03• Thierry Mugler為慶祝Alien面世10周年， 推出瓶身形狀像護身符的特別版香水。 Thierry Mugler celebrates 10 years of the “Alien” fragrance with a talisman bottle.

核心，只要能感受當中的魔力，肯定會迷倒。」 香氣和諧地結合了東方、植物及肉慾元素。虎蔓代表「躍動的 心」、大黃葉及橙花代表「植物的心」、而香草及狼萴則代表「動物之 心」 。 瓶身設計亦是藝術結晶。幾何形狀及多面切割的造型，據說是

Thierry Mugler的主意，綠寶石般的玻璃心形瓶身猶如雕塑藝術品， 而金屬製的M字及閃亮效果令設計更添夢幻。 A men’s version of Angel was introduced four years later. A*Men was still based on the scent of chocolate, with caramel, coffee, vanilla and honey added to the pot. Just like its female counterpart, it was an instant success.

Thirteen years later, in 2005, Mugler gave us Alien, a precious jasmine held in an other-wordly amethyst glass bottle. Eight million sambac jasmine flowers are required to create one kilogram of absolute, and its boldness invaded many women’s hearts.

Another 13 years have since passed, and Mugler is on the move again. This time, it is called Aura, again beginning in A, but the design of the bottle is based on another letter of the alphabet.

“I looked for a universal symbol common to all living things,” Thierry Mugler muses. “The animalistic and mystic power of life. This M-shaped heart imposed itself. M comme Aime! The magic heart of life. You need only feel its magic to become magnetic.”

The scent is a masterful orchestration of oriental, botanical and

03

carnal elements. It features tiger liana as “the beating heart”, rhubarb leaf and orange blossom as “the botanical heart”, bourbon vanilla and wolfwood as “the animal heart”.

The bottle design resembles a work of art. The geometrical silhouette and faceted profile is said to have been proposed by Mugler himself, and the eventual chiselled emerald glass heart is artist-sculpted. The metal “M” and luminous finish give it a surreal presence.

Margaux 2015 Unforgettable text | Ivan Wong

波爾多釀酒巨匠Paul Pontallier雖不是酒莊主人， 但卻是人所共知的Château Margaux代表人物。 打從上世紀八十年代加入Château Margaux以來， 在他手底下釀造過不知多少個世紀年份極品，如 1986、2000、2005或是2010，但叫人永遠懷念 的，就必然是他的臨別之作：2015。 Although Bordeaux winemaker Paul Pontallier didn’t own it, he was the face of Château Margaux.

Joining the winery in 1983, he created numerous exquisite vintages. Those of 1986, 2000, 2005 and 2010 are unforgettable. However, his legacy vintage is 2015 — one we will never forget.

Siam Paragon, Bangkok’s high-end shopping centre, is just a quick cab or tuk-tuk ride from the Oriental. The city’s Skytrain, which makes stops at all the main shopping districts, is also just a short walk from the hotel.

In the evenings, I have several fine-dining options: Lord Jim’s, a seafood restaurant featuring the freshest of fish and seafood with neon night views of the river; Le Normandie, a French restaurant whose classic gourmet offerings – with a Thai twist – would not look out of place in Paris; and Sala Rim Naam, a themed room on the same side of the river as the spa, which features Thai specialties that you eat while enjoying a traditional show with costumed dancers.

Elite Car Stelvio外觀造型非常吸引，筆者尤其喜歡其車頭設計及家族化鬼 面罩，絕對能突圍而出，抓住你的目光。 以中價定位的SUV來說，Stelvio在內裝方面稍嫌簡單，不過簡約 中帶優雅。它沒有Audi或BMW的活潑，卻舒適自在，備有平底方向 盤，而引擎開關按鈕則置於方向盤的左方。 我們試駕的型號加入多項附加設備，包括Harman Kardon高級音 響系統($1,200)、雙窗格天窗($1,595)、擁有電動運動座椅及20吋輪 圈等的sport package運動套裝($2,500) 。

The simple, yet elegant, cabin doesn’ t have the pizzazz of an Audi or a BMW, but it is comfortable and easy to live with. It features a neatlooking, flat-bottom steering wheel, with the start/stop button on the left-hand side.

Among the other options on our test vehicle was a Harman Kardon premium audio system ($1,200), a dual-pane sunroof ($1,595) and a sport package ($2,500) featuring sport seats with power adjustable seat bolsters, 20-inch aluminum wheels and more.

The base Stelvio comes with 18-inch aluminum wheels, while

WHAT'S BEST

The Stelvio is a crossover SUV with the soul of a performance sedan.

the Ti has 19-inchers with added features, like wood interior accents

WHAT'S WORST

and an 8.4-inch display screen.

The interior is simple and refined, but not up to the standards of some other luxury brands.

Cargo room is generous, with 525 litres behind the second-row seats and 1,677 litres with the second-row seats folded. The Stelvio has a tow rating of 1,361 kg (3,000 lb).

Among the safety features available are Forward Collision Warning, Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Departure Warning, Blind Spot Monitoring, Rear Cross Path detection and front and rear park assist sensors.

As mentioned earlier, the Stelvio will be a niche vehicle in the market, due to the limited dealer numbers. However, it is a welcome addition to the mid-size premium crossover market and one which select buyers are sure to find appealing.
