The House of Boucheron recently held a lavish gala evening at a top Dubai Hotel, marking a grand finale to a magnificent year of 150th anniversary celebrations that kicked off in Paris in January 2008. Over 200 VIP guests were invited to a cocktail reception with a viewing of its one-of-a-kind masterpieces entitled ‘Enchanting Boucheron’, which brings together 150 years of unparalleled heritage, savoir-faire and daring. The new collections reflected seven themes, each representing a fundamental characteristic of the House—audacious, Voluptuous, Magic, Curious, Gourmand, Dangerous and Mysterious.
Guests were treated to a rousing live musical performance of Bizet’s ‘Carmen’ prelude followed by ‘Chanson Boheme’, by the 55-piece UAE Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by artistic director Philip Meier. The reception was attended by Jean-Christophe Bedos, CEO, Boucheron and Shireen El Khatib, CEO, Al Tayer Insignia, authorized distributors of the brand in the UAE. As a grand finale, the ‘Enchanting Boucheron’ High Jewellery sets were again presented by elegant models as they mingled among the guests.
