Daily Dose Of Fantasy

One of the hardest-working fashion designers Giorgio Armani, 74, is to launch a new line of resort hotels. He is to design the first Armani Hotels & Resorts venture in Dubai which will feature 160 guest rooms and suites, as well as restaurants and a spa.

As a part of his new plan, he recently offered an eight figure bid to buy the London’s five star hotel The Berkeley, but the The Berkeley’s boss Derek Quinlan refused to sell it to him. Reportedly “No one knows Armani has been looking at moving into hotels but he is set on owning one in London. He was prepared to part with a lot of cash for The Berkeley but Quinlan told him he would have to buy all three hotels, which would effectively mean the end of the former Savoy Group.”

I guess he is in competition with other fashion mogul Karl Legerfeld to expand his world domination to large property ownership.

As a part of her Middle East debut in Dubai, Kylie Minogue attends the opening of an exclusive Dubai hotel, the man-made island of Palm Jumeirah.

She is said to make her red-carpet entrance to the most expensive private party ever staged (a $35 million soiree).

While on the red carpet, she told the press: “I am nervous.”

Dressing in black and pink floral gown, she said about her specially crafted performance: ““I’m hoping that I’m not so programmed that I’ll go into totally the wrong song.”

Being blown away by her luxurious surroundings, she said:
“I’ve never been here before. I spoke to a few people before coming here, saying in general conversation that I’m going to Dubai, and it seemed to be a bit of a buzz-word, a lot of people were talking about it and no one could really explain it. They just said, `it’s just, it’s, it’s … madness. You’ll have a good time’.It’s really staggering. The airport - my God - the airport - marble floor and glittering columns. I guess more is more here and they’ve done a great job.”

Among the guests of this expensive soiree were politicians, A-list actors, musicians and the Dubai royal family.

Minogue reportedly will receive $4.4 million to entertain the 2000 guests.
