More jewels on the second week of Cannes film Festival
At the Cannes Film Festival there are two key moments at which
stars are photographed looking their very best. The red carpet walk
up the steps and into the cinema is the classic moment but the
parties afterwards provide many more candid moments to catch
glimpses of the stars letting their hair down.
In an unstoppable juggernaut of parties, Chopard, Official
Partner of the Festival, almost every night manages to pull off a
high octane, dance all night party. And the one of Monday night
looks like one hell of a bash. Chopard's mystery themed party at a
secret location, perched high above Cannes, was where guests were
able to enjoy the jeweller's grand reception. The dress code
on the invitation read "Masques et Diamants".
The evening could really get under way after a private dinner
reserved for a select circle of privileged guests, informs Chopard.
For this occasion, Cirque du Soleil created an exclusive
mystery-themed show. Guests could dance to the jazz tunes played by
Michael Arenella & His Dreamland Orchestra and the Gypsy
Queens, let L'Oreal do their make-up, get a professional photograph
taken, have a clairvoyant read their tarot cards, or admire a
Chopard Haute Joaillerie show accompanied by a dance performance.
An electrifying DJ set took the stage during the
late-night/early-morning hours.
On the savoury side, Käfer, the famous German caterer and a
close friend of the Scheufele Family, served guests with delectable
dishes. Filet of ox from Nebraska served as a rose on morels,
Käfer's famous penne al tartufo or fresh ginger Malossol salmon
were paired with Boizel Champagnes, Monestier Latour wines or
cocktails especially created for Chopard by Grey Goose.
Guests included Erin Wasson, Liu Wen, Caroline Sieber- all
adorned in Chopard creations - along with Anja Rubik, Alec Baldwin,
Sean Combs, Cassie Ventura, Michelle Rodriguez and many more.
The same day Bulgari was out in force and Anna Consigny, Chiara
Francini and Petra Nemcova were spotted in the Italian house's
jewels.
