| CALLING ALL LAVAZZA COFFEE CONNOISSEURS - 00:00:00 |
|
Lizzie Whiston-Dew conducts an intimate interview with the Lavazza Family in Rome.
To live in our fast pace urban jungle, a shot of coffee in the morning has become ‘de rigeur.’
Much like our demand for luxury in fashion, coffee too has become bespoke. With Lavazza being the chosen brand permanently on the lips of every supermodel and socialite.
Italy gave us the Ferrari, spaghetti and Pavarotti and now the best in coffee culture.
The Lavazza coffee empire, worth a reported one bil |

| TOURBILLON - A MOVEMENT FOLLOWED BY THE RICH - 00:00:00 |
|
Tramp explains what a Tourbillon is.
A Tourbillon is an addition to the mechanics of a watch escapement.
Invented in 1795 by French watchmaker Abraham-Louis Breguet, a Tourbillon counters the effects of gravity by mounting the escapement and balance wheel in a rotating cage, ostensibly in order to negate the effect of gravity when the timepiece is rotated.
“Breguet produced the first production Tourbillon mechanism for Napoleon weighing almost 200 pounds.”

| THE JEWELS OF MALTA - 00:00:00 |
|
I have a great penchant for honey, especially so as a small child.
It’s oh-so-sweet yet refined nectar; its golden syrupy texture heightening the taste buds and gently caressing the throat as it oozes deliciously down.

|
Walking into her Maida Vale design studio is like entering a fairytale. It is not a usual workroom, despite the obvious cutting table and sewing machines. This design studio is a world of glamour and fantasy that makes me weak at the knees.
Situated in a small building by Little Venice, Elizabeth Emanuel’s studio could be a museum reflecting the last 30 years of fashion. Pictures of Helena Bonham Carter in her twenties wearing Elizabeth’s exquisite gowns hang on the walls. Drawers upon draw |
