CHINA - SHENZHEN
OCTOBER 2010

Presentation


Epitomising luxury in all true sense of the word, DELUXE makes its maiden debut in the tropical Lion City, specially brought to you by Raffles Hotel and Raffles The Plaza, Singapore.

DELUXE, as its name suggests, represents opulence, grandeur and extravagance - a proverbial experience of a lifetime. Priced at S$888++, this exclusively chic shindig will be held on Friday, 12 October 2007, with cocktails at Raffles Hotel followed by dinner at the Raffles Ballroom, showcasing a spectacular evening of innovative fine dining and first-class entertainment, distinguished by personalised and attentive service, and gracefully infused with a touch of glamour.

Transformed into a spectacle of mysticism and unpretentious charm, the peerless Raffles Ballroom emanates style and elegance. Revel in an ambience deliberately furnished by swanky furniture, tasteful upholstery and plush carpeting, with contemporary nuances such as unrivalled display utensils and cutleries gracing each table setting.

In attendance is a very select group of invitees comprising the Who’s Who in the privileged and elite world of the rich and famous, top businessmen and women, fashionistas as well as well-heeled socialites around the world, shaping the Raffles Ballroom for this glitterati celebration. They will reward their palates and senses with a collection of the finest cuisine, intricately prepared and delicately presented in the most exquisite fashion. Injecting a “local” touch, each course bears a theme, with influences from the four major races and cultures of Singapore - Chinese, Malay, Indian and Eurasian.

A connoisseur’s dream come true is the matching of premium wines and champagnes with top quality food. The impressive Krug Grande Cuvee will complement red and sweet wines such as 2003 Petit Cheval and 2002 Cloudy Bay, Late Harvest Riesling.

As the convivial atmosphere heats up, guests will be kept in good spirits as the lively evening will see a wide repertoire of entertainment, encompassing a fashion show and a musical extravaganza. Against a backdrop of heart pounding music and dizzying lights, a beautiful parade of statuesque models will sashay down the elevated catwalk in the latest creations of Guy Laroche, Jiki de Montecarlo and Damiani. In addition, guests will also enjoy a glitzy performance by American legendary band - Earth, Wind and Fire featuring Al McKay.
One of the most important, influential, innovative and commercially omnipotent contemporary pop music bands of the 20th century, Earth, Wind and Fire was formed in 1969, and in its 35-year history, has produced million and millions of albums sold worldwide, with numerous hits such as Shining Star, Fantasy, September, Let’s Groove, Boogie Wonderland, Sing a Song, That’s the Way of the World and After the Love has Gone (including eight double-platinum albums, two platinum albums and three gold albums).
Beautifully planned with the greatest attention paid to minutest details; from table-setting to food to entertainment, no stone will be left unturned to create an unforgettable soiree, leaving you beautiful cherished memories to last a lifetime.

DELUXE Singapore will no doubt, be dubbed Raffles Hotel and Raffles The Plaza, Singapore’s most celebrated red carpet Event of the Year, ending 2007 on a beauteous, magical note.
