GENESIS SERVED AS VEHICLE PARTNER OF 2022 PRESIDENTS CUP IN CHARLOTTE

Genesis served as the official automobile sponsor for the renowned Presidents Cup tournament this year, a series of men's golf matches between a team representing the United States and an International Team representing the rest of the world minus Europe. A PGA TOUR event, the tournament took place Sept. 22-25 at the Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina, and the U.S. team won its ninth straight trophy with a score of 17.5-12.5.

Seventy-seven cars were deployed during the tournament to be showcased and to ferry players and event stakeholders around the course, including the G90 flagship sedan, the G80 executive sedan and the complete SUV lineup consisting of the GV60, GV70 and GV80.

This year’s tournament featured a record number of Korean players: K.H. Lee, Si Woo Kim, Sungjae Im and Joohyung “Tom” Kim. It was the largest number of Korean players in the event’s history and they contributed 7.5 points to the International Team’s 12.5 points. Of the four, Si Woo Kim made the best showing with an overall record of 3-1-0. Sungjae Im finished with 2-2-1, K.H. Lee with 2-1-0, and Joohyung Kim with 2-3-0.

“We are happy to support the top players from various countries along with event stakeholders through our vehicle sponsorship, and hope that it contributed to their remarkable efforts both on and off the course, said a Genesis representative. He added, "Genesis will continue to show its dedicated commitment to golf through its golf sponsorships globally."

Genesis signed on as the official vehicle sponsor for the Presidents Cup in 2021, committing to sponsor tournament vehicles in the 2022, 2024, and 2026 events, to be held at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, North Carolina; The Royal Montreal Golf Club in Montreal, Québec, Canada; and Medinah Country Club in Medinah, Illinois, respectively.

Next month, Genesis will host the 2022 Genesis Championship in South Korea. The major Korean PGA Tour event will run Oct. 6-9 as title sponsor. On its home turf, Genesis can engage more deeply with golf fans, players and partners, strengthening its “audacious commitment” to the sport.

IWC Schaffhausen opens new boutique at Taiku Hui Mall in Shanghai

IWC Schaffhausen has opened its new flagship boutique at HKRI Taikoo Hui mall complex in Shanghai. Taking its successful new retail concept to the next level, the Swiss luxury watch manufacturer has created a fully immersive environment centring around its most iconic product lines and highlighting key aspects such as the brand’s engineering and materials competence. The new flagship boutique also features the “Big Pilot Bar” with indoor and outdoor seating, converting it into a meeting point for the local community.

IWC’s new flagship boutique is located at the HKRI Taikoo Hui mall, West Nanjing Road, in the West Central Business District in Shanghai. After Zurich and Dubai, Shanghai marks the Swiss luxury watch manufacturer’s third global IWC flagship location.

Over more than 300 sq. m., they can immerse themselves into distinctively themed worlds and discover IWC’s iconic Pilot’s Watches, Portugieser and Portofino collections. This

makes it the largest IWC boutique in the world in terms of square metres.

Adding a futuristic touch to the boutique is the presence of IWC’s partner Airspeeder, the world’s first racing series for electric flying cars. Visitors can take a seat in the cockpit of a “speeder” racing drone and enjoy a Mixed Reality (MR) flight through landscapes inspired by IWC’s “Colors of TOP GUN” Lake Tahoe, Woodland, Mojave Desert and Ceratanium®.

“Our new flagship boutique blurs the boundaries between a physical store and a digital experience. Merging the best of both worlds, we created a space where visitors can discover our brand and products in an unprecedented new way. Moreover, thanks to the integration of a food and beverage concept, the boutique also turns into a meeting point for people living or working in the Jing’an District”, explains Christoph Grainer-Herr, CEO of IWC Schaffhausen.

Eleni C.

Meet Eleni C - a singer songwriter and a mental health advocate born and raised in north London.

In the early stages of her career, Eleni C was selected to represent the United Kingdom in the International Music Festival, taking first place in the categories of Best Original Song and Best Female Singer.

In terms of her performance, Eleni C said she has been influenced by Jennifer Lopez and Eleni Foureira’s dynamic choreographed performances in addition to Adele’s sensitive, yet potent approach to music and song writing that captivates and mesmerises her audience.

Audiences that enjoy dancing and having a good time are drawn to Eleni C’s energetic and upbeat style of music.

We sat with Eleni C this month for this exclusive cover interview for our readers.

"You are your biggest fan."

Please introduce yourself to our readers

Hey! I am Eleni C a singer songwriter and a mental health advocate.

Tell us about your education.

I went to my local comprehensive school in North London and then I completed a degree in Media and Communications at the Goldsmith University of London.

Share some of your childhood memories.

Even as a child I always loved music. One of my favourite bands growing up were the spice Girls and I remember being given their concert on VHS and I use to play it over and over again and pretend i was one of them!

How and when did you get interested in singing?

What or who influenced you?

From a child I have always loved singing. At first it was just something I loved to do in my spare time, before I realised it could become a career. Growing up my influences were JLo, Christina Aguilera, Amy Winehouse and the Spice Girls.

How would you best describe the type of your music?

I would say that my music is Pop with influences from Reggaetón and RnB.

What inspires your music?

Life inspires my music! I tend to channel the life experiences of me and my friends or anything else that enthuses me.

What’s the inspiration behind your Mono Esi?

It’s all about that love that was never fully explored blinded by the ego and the careless whispers of others that influenced your decision and you let go and yet you were unable to forget. So when your paths meet again you will do anything to have one more try and see where it will go. Basically this was inspired by the book ‘Persuasion’ of my favourite author Jane Austen.

Who writes your music?

I have a writing team and our sessions are always so much fun because we have our little individual peculiar inputs that we somehow turn into songs. Oh yeah I forgot to say that we always have amazing snacks! To fuel our inspiration.

What’s a typical creative and writing process like for you?

There isn’t really one process. Sometimes it can start from a melody that inspires us and sometimes a song can be built around a phrase or concept we have in our mind. The most important thing during a creating and writing process is to allow everything to flow naturally otherwise you run the risk of creating a writer’s block.

Tell us about your new song that you are working on.

I’m really excited about the new music I’m working. I’ve stuck to the Eleni C flavour, but this time we’ve tried to infuse a bit of an urban feel. Hopefully everyone will like it!

Where have you all performed so far? Which was your favourite? And your dream venue to perform at? These past couple of months have been full of live performances which has been absolutely amazing!! I’ve of my favourite performances this year has been at Proud Embankment because the stage is amazing! My dream venue is the Wembley Stadium!

What message do you want to convey through your music?

My main aim is to convey the message that the power is within and we have to own our life and in doing so we can achieve whatever we put our mind into.

What are some of your other hobbies?

I have a few hobbies and not enough leisure time but I try to pursue them as much as I can as they help me to maintain my mental health. So I love dancing, solving word searches, table games, movies and art.

You are also an advocate of Mental Health. What made your believe stronger in Mental Health as it is still a subject which many don’t believe in. When I was growing up I witnessed very close loved ones struggle with mental health, and I always said to myself that if I had a platform to make a difference then I wanted to use it to help the younger generation to understand the importance of mental health and to not be afraid to speak out about good and bad things.

How do you unwind?

Dancing or meditation then a nice bath and finally a good movie or a word search. That is the dream however I normally have a shower and a word search that I never get to complete as the majority of the time I fall asleep half way through it.

What advice do you have for someone wanting to follow in your footsteps?

Prepare for hard work for incredible highs and a lot of lows. Always record your performances, evaluate them and you will be able to improve every single time.

Your message for our readers and your fans. Always remember that you are your biggest fan learn to self-evaluate and anything you want to pursue every single one of your dreams are possible.

Your message for us at theCiiN magazine. Keep supporting people’s dreams.

TALLER MARMO LAUNCHES ITS PRE-SPRING 2023 COLLECTION

Taller Marmo Pre-Spring 2023 collection is a collage of bold and extreme references, belonging to different times and places.

A mix of strong visuals which influenced the brand imaginary: the radical work of Helmut Newton in the 1970s and 1980s, Raffaella CarraÌ and her influence on women empowerment, the rigorously precise drapes of Madame GreÌs, the sexiness of Ferrari and Lamborghini and the elegance of the cult 60s comic series Diabolik.

This season, the collection invites women to transform themselves into an enigmatic heroin of a Hollywood’s film noir or a sensual disco diva.

The silhouette gets sleeker and more dramatical thanks to hooded kaftans, blouses and cape- effect dresses made in silk creponne. Signature feathers and fringes adorned full length kaftans in crepe cady and mini dresses made in a flashy lurex jacquard. The colours are also extreme: the blues are electric; the yellows are acid, and the fuchsias are fluorescent while the green and red are made in bold jewel tones.

Taller Marmo’s signature styles like the Mrs. Ross Kaftan, the Ubud and Gina Dress are made in recycled liquid sequins in black and aquamarine

The shooting location, a modernist villa, represents the quintessence of 1970’s design and architecture and embodies the perfect home for an algid and sophisticated woman.

Founded in 2013 by design duo Yago Goicoechea and Riccardo Audisio, Taller Marmo is a contemporary and luxury womenswear label based in Italy. With an ever-growing number of celebrity fans including Alicia Keys, Kylie Minogue, Salma Hayek, Rossy De Palma, Elizabeth Olsen, Alexa Chung, Lily Allen, Roìisiìn Murphy, Kate Beckinsale and Cynthia Erivo the Taller Marmo woman is always in great company. Each Taller Marmo piece is sourced and made locally to the brand in Italy which reduces their carbon footprint and eliminates third party production necessities.

The PS23 collection launches with the brand’s internationally renowned retailers this October 2022.

MANGO launches exclusive party collection in collaboration with Camille Charrière

MANGO is pleased to present its latest collaboration with Camille Charrière. Over the years, Camille’s imagination and impeccable style have consolidated her position as a leader in the fashion ecosystem. Television presenter, broadcaster and a regular on the front row at fashion shows, she is a muse for a generation of women. Camille has partnered with MANGO to create a collection that combines her vibrant lifestyle with her statement style.

Camille explains, “The collection is very much a curation of what I already own and wear on a regular basis. It is the essence of my style. We even included a version of the dress I wore at my wedding reception”.

In Camille’s universe, anything can happen in a single night. She embraces the unexpected and allows the magic to happen. Each piece in this exclusive collection irradiates her unique sense of style and transports you to the iconic nightlife of the late 90s and early 2000s. This is reflected in the campaign, in which her closest friends and companions Abby Wilson, Georgia Hodway, Kesewa Aboha and MV Tiangue also participate.

The campaign was directed by Felix Cooper and produced by Camille’s husband, François Larpin, offering a true reflection of her life.

Timeless silhouettes are reimagined with an urban and relaxed feel. The collection plays with an array of textures including sequins, feathers and satin, complemented by unconventional fabrics such as poplin or striped denim shirts. A selection of dresses feature throughout the line, highlighting the silver hauberk dress and the semi-transparent crystal dress as seasonal must-haves, complete with tailored essentials and leather staples for a contemporary aesthetic.

Throughout the years, MANGO has collaborated with several brands, artists and talents including the likes of Chufy, André Saraiva, Leandra Medine and, more recently, Pernille Teisbaek. Through this project, the firm is strengthening the ties that unite its community, while encompassing the value offered from a fresh perspective on its Mediterranean style.

THE GIVING MOVEMENT’S LATEST FW22 DROP, SEAMLESS

Engineered sustainable fibers knit to move you

The Giving Movement reveals a brand new drop within its Fall/Winter’22 collection – Seamless. The region’s first sustainable athleisure brand born in the UAE is bringing a new range that is hand sculpted and made to shape, contour and move with the body, making it the perfect fit for high impact training. The Seamless range features contouring and shading lines that accentuate the body’s shape with sculpting and body-hugging materials, and the best part – no stitches. The new range includes two categories: Seamless Contrast, and Seamless Tonal.

The palettes in the Seamless Contrast range are made with a colorful take on the essentials. The Giving Movement brings an energy created with pairings that speak of positivity, encouragement, and self-love. The available color combinations in the Seamless Contrast range are True Black & White, Navy & Off White, Pastel Purple & True Black, and Blood Stone & True Black, as well as lighter color combinations such as Grey Marl & Off White and Anthrocrete Grey & Off White.

The Seamless Tonal range speaks of minimalism, with color codes that confidently take on a hue and embrace all its angles. The available colors in the Seamless Tonal range are True Black, Mushroom, Blood Stone, Dusty Pink, Khaki, Moroccan Blue, Off White, Anthrocrete Grey, Navy, and Opal Blue.

The seamless range’s production is done in the most optimal method where the yarn is ultimately customizable and knit closely together. With this range, the strategy is to knit a lighter mesh in high heat zones and cooler compressive panels to create more support where needed. As the fabric is knit in one tubular go, each garment is designed and programmed to be knit in sustainable yarns with no cutting done during the process – meaning, each garment uses the exact amount of yarn it needs with no waste in any part of production.

The Seamless range includes all active wear pieces, such as Sports Bras, Crop Tops, Zip Jackets, Biker Shorts and Leggings.

CHARLES & KEITH teams up with Parisian label Both to create an exclusive collection

CHARLES & KEITH has teamed up with Paris-based independent footwear brand both – known for its unique use of rubber in its designs – to create an exclusive collection.

Centred around 90’s punk vibes and urban-chic streetwear aesthetics, the collection takes a contemporary spin on the art of imperfection. Inspired by the ancient Japanese art form of Kintsugi – a traditional method of utilising gold to mend cracks in ceramics or to bind broken pieces together, a metaphor for embracing flaws and imperfections – the effect adopted here, reiterates the function of the accessories.

The collection is available in three colours: black, white, and a unique print featuring gold marble foil overlaid on a lemonyellow background, specially designed by both.

Traditional Chelsea boots and chunky loafer silhouettes – iconic styles for CHARLES & KEITH – have been reimagined in a new form with both’s experimental curved rubber soles. Grunge streetstyle-inspired platforms are added, distorting traditional perceptions and balancing on and off-duty wear – these sculptural silhouettes aren’t dissimilar to styles that would have been spotted on youths frequenting Camden and Harajuku in the noughties. Seams on footwear are broken up and underlaid in gold or silver, and hammered metal toe-caps invoke an interplay between shattering societal norms.

Bags take on 90s-inspired silhouettes with a futuristic twist: Baguette shoulder bags are given chunky straps for a maximalist effect, while structured bucket bags feature a magnetic closure that folds over to create a sleek elliptical form. Removable charms and chains in a burnished finish play up the tropes of punk subculture, encouraging wearers to explore and express their individuality. A statement buckle, also seen on the loafers, wraps around the body of the bucket bag, imbuing utilitarianism with creativity to reiterate the new generation’s style and identity.

“The blending of our brands’ sensibilities was very natural. Innovation and experimentation form the backbone of our design ethos, and we have a strong collaborative spirit in our roots, as active players in the global creative circuit,” said Fredie Stevens, Design Director of CHARLES & KEITH. “With both’s expertise and one-of-a-kind rubber technique, we tapped on each other’s strengths to push the boundaries on design and translate this material into a contemporary collection we hope our wearers will love.”

“We are always looking to capture the culture, mood and people of a certain period, and this collection is an ode to the transgressive spirit of punk, reflected in the youthful zeal of the new generation, who have challenged and redefined the boundaries of so many norms,” said both.

BAHIA IS CALLING

A slice of the Brazilian coastal life is just a sleep away from the GCC

For GCC explorers, there is nothing more magical than the opportunity to chase the sun to the other side of the world, with a number of direct flights to far-flung locales and antipodean destinations. And if there is one region that should be tugging at our collective wanderlust right now, it is the Discovery Coast, a region in southern coast of Bahia, where summer is just about to set in (October – March).

Thanks to direct flights from the UAE to Brazil, the Discovery Coast is the coastal paradise perfect for a fall getaway. Here, historical sites and luxurious resorts sit snug against a multi-hued landscape blessed nature’s bounty and its vibrant nightlife gives way to bucolic days that feed the soul.

Just one sleep in the sky away, Discovery Coast in Bahia is the bucketlist destination that will delight the GCC’s most discerning beach heads, globetrotters and culture vultures.

For the beach buzz: Porto Seguro

Porto Seguro is the magic ticket for those looking to enjoy a slice of the Brazilian coastal life, especially with the little ones. With beautiful beaches, all-inclusive resorts, historical sights and restaurants, the city is the ideal sanctuary for families to unwind, enjoy and rediscover the vibes of their summer vacay. The star attraction are the beaches; from lively strips to almost deserted sandy sanctuaries, all framed by coconut trees and dotted by natural pools. It is the magical setting where memo ries are made.

Getting there: Porto Seguro is served by Porto Seguro Air port (BPS), the main airport for the southern region of Bahia. Emirates flies to Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, with several connecting flights to BPS.

For the tranquillity: Trancoso

A tonic for the city-weary, Trancoso is a sight for sore eyes and minds. Vibrantly coloured houses are set picture-perfect against rosy-hued cliffs and an aqua marine sea – a scene that promises luscious days of sun-bathing, swimming and relaxing under the welcoming shadow of coconut groves.

Transforming a Southern California Residence into a Multi-Generational Abode

Medium Plenty South Pasadena, United States

Medium Plenty, a boutique architecture and interior design practice based in Oakland and Sonoma, California, has built a reputation for its sophisticated, integrated design process and modern aesthetics with projects across California and the Western United States. Co-founders Gretchen Krebs and Ian Read have crafted a practice where every detail is carefully considered, honored, and elevated through an exploration of light, materiality, and spatial authenticity.

For their first Southern California commission, the team revamped this 90+-year-old family residence in South Pasadena through the complete renovation of its interiors and the transformation of the existing garage into an ADU, where the client’s mother now lives. The homeowners tapped Krebs and Read after being drawn to the studio’s classic and minimal, yet warm, design aesthetic and philosophy.

The design goal for the main residence was to open up the single-level space by flooding it with natural light through large openings and sleek skylights at various points. A new rear addition further expands the living space, while a simple palette of woods enriches the overall interiors. This is further enhanced by customized details, such as wrap-around millwork extending from the kitchen into the living room that holds the family library and a variety of collectibles, including an assortment of vintage record players.

With an overall goal of creating ‘separate, yet communal living’ for the whole family, the team sought to bridge everyone’s different needs and lifestyles, while bringing the family of five together. Furthermore, to ensure that both structures–the main residence and the ADU–were cohesive, Medium Plenty used similar elements to connect the two facades, such as the stained, black-slatted wood overhang. The rear ADU provides the homeowner's mother with her own private living quarters, while still being only a few steps away from the main house. The overall result is a modern-day, communal retreat that works beautifully for the whole family.

The House of the Trident unveils a bespoke edition of its latest SUV – Grecale – designed with global icon Barbie

Maserati is thrilled to unveil an unprecedented collaboration with Mattel, Inc.’s (NASDAQ: MAT) Barbie®, driven by the mutual desire to break boundaries and showcase the unique flair of both brands. Both immediately recognizable by their extraordinary personality and signature style, Maserati and Barbie unleashed their creativity in a masterpiece of timeless design and bold character, inspired by the Barbiecore phenomenon.

The fruit of this unconventional collaboration is expressed through an ultra-limited edition Maserati Grecale, the Italian House’s newest SUV, designed to turn everyday driving experiences into something outstanding, and selected by Barbie to match her multi-faceted lifestyle ranging from a business meeting to a glamourous event.

The Barbie Maserati Grecale, as an ultra-limited Fuoriserie edition, will only be available in two custom units globally: one unveiled last night as one of the 2022 Neiman Marcus Fantasy Gifts at the luxury retailer’s holiday launch soirée in Los Angeles. For this U.S. exclusive, bespoke edition a part of the sales price will benefit the Barbie Dream Gap Project* – the Barbie brand’s ongoing global initiative that partners with charities to help provide equal opportunities and remove barriers for girls.

Barbie’s Maserati Grecale is a work of art designed under the Trident’s Fuoriserie customization program, which allows car lovers to express their passion and creativity in the creation of their ultimate Italian luxury car, according to their singular style and taste.

This bold Fuoriserie Maserati Grecale is a Trofeo version which pulsates pure adrenaline thanks to its powerful 530-hp V6 Nettuno engine. In full Barbie fashion, an expression of her iconic pink hue covers

nearly every inch of the dreamy car with fine acidyellow lines, inspired by the Trident’s racing heritage.

The SUV’s exteriors, adorned with the Barbie logo, are sealed with an iridescent topcoat that reveals an incredible rainbow effect on a beautiful sunny day.

Its sleek black interior features full-leather seats, dashboards, carpets, and doors – accented with pink stitching – as well as branded headrests with the unique “B” badge.

TAKING OFF

by travel-expert José Berrocoso

Feel Like a Royal!

Colona Castle, a renaissance of a landmark is exquisitely transformed with contemporary comforts into a luxurious boutique hotel in South Africa, which combines luxury and intuitive service with breathtaking panoramic vistas of Table Mountain, Cape Town' s southern suburbs, Zandvlei Lake, False Bay and its beaches, the South Atlantic Ocean and the Winelands rugged mountains.

Colona Castle Hotel, Lakeside can easily be accessed from the city of Cape Town and the Cape Town International Airport while many of the Cape's sightseeing places are located nearby such as the penguin colony at Boulders Beach. The five-star hotel is in Lakeside which is one of Cape Town southern suburbs. This elegant retreat offers magnificent views of Table Mountain across the peninsula, bay and through to the ocean. The quaint fishing and harbour towns of Kalk Bay, Simonstown and Fish Hoek. This beautiful property with a Mediterranean flair offers a perfect base for exploration and relaxation. Honeymoons, small business groups, golfers, and families enjoy the boutique hotel's service, exceptional hospitality and gourmet cuisine. It’s not much of a castle, really, and not quite a manor house either — but Colona Castle’s name, in any case, puts the right sort of picture in your head. You don’t come to Cape Town for outrageous, cutting-edge design, but for the classic good life — traditional architecture, old-fashioned hospitality, and a natural setting that’s unparalleled in its beauty.

Colona Castle is a Tuscan-style villa, an intimate eight-room hideaway, high on a hillside, affording panoramic views of the mountains, the lake district, Cape Town’s city lights and the Atlantic coastline. This is a peaceful place where you can relax on one of the patios in the summer, or cuddle up next to an open-hearth log fire in the winter. Enjoy a day on the sandy beaches of Muizenberg, or stroll through the 'arty' fishing village of Kalk Bay.

The seven suites (and one cozy bedroom) all differ in style, leaving the Tuscan theme at the door — they range from safari-camp fantasy to British colonial to Indian or Moroccan, all united by the common threads of rich materials and contemporary clean lines. Hotel amenities are simple, fitting the small scale of this intimate villa hotel — there’s a pool deck, complete with stunning views, and a kitchen using the finest organic and local ingredients. Nearby you’ll find Sandviel Lake and the beaches at False Bay, four golf courses lie within a few miles, and the vineyards of the Winelands are just a day trip away.

The award-winning Executive Chef serves delicious meals which are a combination of high-quality organically grown ingredients. The candlelit dining hall at this Hotel makes for a beautiful dining setting. Alternatively, discerning visitors may enjoy a myriad of excellent restaurants in the vicinity. Take a drive to the centre of Cape Town to shop along the trendy Long Street or in the sophisticated V&A Waterfront, or visit the range of museums and galleries here. Alternatively, explore the scenic peninsula with a visit to the penguins at Boulders Beach and the Cape of Good Hope Nature Reserve.

Wonderful leisure options include picturesque mountain or beach walks, water sports, whale watching. Golfers paradise with several world-class golf courses within convenient access. A special microclimate ensures that our weather is very pleasant all year round. With lesser rainfalls, Lakeside is usually warmer in winter and cooler in summer than surrounding areas. Alternatively, simply stay at the hotel and relax on the patio or request a spa treatment in the privacy of your room.
