Lifestyle 2019 by Prestige Hong Kong

 

It's here! On sale in newsstands for the rest of the year, the annual tome published by Prestige Hong Kong. 

Worked with Dino Busch for the cover shoot (three years in a row with Olivier before) as Dino - Jess - and I all started working together x years ago and we are a trio that cannot be broken! lol. Have to say its one of my fav Lifestyle covers... EVER. Apart from looking great on newsstands everywhere (for the whole year! woot woot!), the entire team involved was so great that pulled it all together.

Glad Tidings

The volume you’re holding is an annual accompaniment to Prestige magazine, a new-year tome that is now a decade old. By the time we collate these pages it seems more than apposite for our editors to reflect on the year gone by, and as such we review here for you the best society events of 2018 (page 20) featuring the year’s most fabulous parties, and we present the finest hotels, bars, restaurants and spas sampled by our roster of wordsmiths (“The A List”, page 92). Our penultimate page is a tongue-in-chic recap of the year’s pop culture and celebrity antics (“That Was 2018…”, page 104), putting a humorous cap on the Year of the Dog as we step into the auspicious Year of the Pig. 

According to my feng shui mistress Thierry Chow (what, you don’t have one?) it’s a year of good fortune and luck as the Pig occupies the last (12th) position in the Chinese zodiac. And good fortune and luck is just what we wish our young and gorgeous cover stars, actress Jessica Jann and entrepreneur Kenneth King, as they embark on a lifelong journey together as a newly married couple. The day this magazine comes hurtling out of our printer’s vans and on to newsstands, the duo will be walking down the aisle – and we couldn’t be happier for them. Months ago, as they recounted their romantic journey, smiling and gazing into each other’s eyes – even when our photographer didn’t instruct them to – we got a little misty for young love and new beginnings. Our jaded, crusty and calcified heart skipped a beat – and I’m sure yours will too.

Have a prosperous and productive new year – according to the stars aligned, it’s a great one for making and investing money. We wish thee glad tidings dear reader, glad tidings indeed.
