EDITOR’S MESSAGE Dear Readers, The long, lazy days of summer are upon us, and while most of us aren’t necessarily highlighting the warmer days in our calendars, it’s fair to admit that there’s a certain ease that comes with the season in Dubai, be it through the languid days or the noticeably faster commutes to the office. Whether you’re planning a summer getaway or hitting the pool or the beach to cool down, make sure to bring Haute Dubai with you as this issue is chock-full of interesting reads. In Style, we round up the most impressive watches from Baselworld and our favourite collections from Fashion Forward. We also profile awardwinning jewellery designer and artist, Anabela Chan, who arrives at jewellery from a prestigious background in architecture, fashion and art. This year, Lady Gaga, Rita Ora and FKA Twigs have all graced red carpet events wearing her enchanting, statement pieces. In Living, we catch up with the Founder and President of Lasvit, Leon Jakimic, who was in town for the opening of the brand’s new showroom at Dubai Design District. He gives us a first-hand look into his fast-flourishing company and the glass-lighting masterpieces it creates. In Motoring, we discuss an entirely different kind of masterpieces: the first SUV from Maserati, the Levante, and an even more exciting ride, the Chiron from the legendary automaker Bugatti. All that and much more is waiting for you inside. Enjoy! Editorial Team
