On the bay, the Louis Vuitton store, the largest outside the Champs-Elysées in Paris, is set inside an angular glass pavilion and has Asia’s first Travel Room
experience. The Chef on Board sees evening trips on a yacht shadowing Singapore’s coastline while canapés like clams from New Zealand and urchins from Hokkaido are served with cocktails prepared on board. High-end stores fill the floors at Paragon
on Orchard Road, but a more over-the-top experience awaits at The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands, where a customised concierge service whisks top shoppers to luxury retailers. Among the spoils are the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 600m Co-axial Master Chronometer (about S$140,000/ US$102,000), or bespoke fragrances upwards of S$45,000 (US$33,000) from French perfume house Henry Jacques. On the bay, the Louis Vuitton store, the largest outside the Champs-Elysées in Paris, is set inside an angular glass pavilion and has Asia’s first Travel Room, with an outdoor loggia that re-creates the deck of a luxury yacht. For lovers of actual yachts, One 15
Marina stocks a number of vessels for charter, the largest a 40-metre Westport
bus ine s s tr a v el ler .c om
which can sleep up to ten guests for overseas charters. The marina offers charters in Singapore waters that visit the city’s outer islands, while for the more adventurous, more cash-heavy client, boats can travel to islands as far as Langkawi and Phuket, so a local trip with top-shelf seafood and wines or a month-long diving trip around Southeast Asia are both plain sailing. Gold, a metal and colour that represents
wealth like no other, makes a couple of surprising cameos. TWG Tea, with a few locations in the city, sells Grand Golden Yin Zhen, white tea leaves plated with 24-karat gold and sold at S$19,000 (US$13,800) per kilo. At bespoke tailor The Prestigious, the library of fabrics include Holland & Sherry cloth with 22-karat gold; but for the true crazy-rich experience, the Diamond Chip collection fabric from Scabal has crushed diamonds blended into the wool and silk, lending garments a subtle, luxurious glow. The effect? You’ll feel like a million, or maybe more appropriately, a billion dollars. BT
