Editor’s Note – January 2016

One a recent trip to Dubai, I can surely say I was amazed at the sheer scale of hotels and malls, the variety of cuisines offered at restaurants and the groovy décor at nightclubs which just gets better with each visit. What stunned me the most was shopping at my favourite Shoe District in the Dubai Mall, where I came across a 24 carat gold shoe by Alberto Moretti and another Italian brand who were creating live tattoos on their shoes with your preferred designs. Upon exiting the mall and waiting for my car to show up, I spotted a gleaming hard-to-miss silver-plated Rolls Royce parked at the entrance with the Royal family number plate. The flight back home on the new A380 with its state-ofthe-art bedrooms in the sky got me in a tizzy. Luxury has taken leaps of epic proportion and the level of comfort, elegance and richness has increased exponentially. Even here in India over the past few years things are scaling new heights across all segments, so we enter the alluring and glamorous domain of – The Luxe Life for our January 2016 cover story (Page 36). We have reached out to the best of best in India and abroad spanning bags, apparel, watches, hotels, spas and much more.
