10 Private Clubs in Asia Reserved for the Quietly Influential

Delvaux, the world’s oldest luxury leather goods house in the world just introduced their newest addition to their emblematic Pin family — the Pin Twist. 

This modern addition to the Pin family adds a surprising and enchanting freshness to the line, which was first introduced in 1972. Conceived to be transformed, the Pin Twist is a genuinely versatile style. 

It is one of Delvaux’s most changeable bags, adapting to the user’s mood and circumstances with its effortless charm. 

The Pin Twist is crafted in soft, grained Taurillon leather, echoing the signature shape of the Pin family — two lines, one smile — a gesture that defines its instantly recognizable silhouette. 

There are numerous ways to style the Pin Twist, either short or long, across the body, sitting on the shoulder, or as a top-handle bag, allowing the wearer to freely personalize it as they please. It can be easily dressed up or down, fusing practical efficiency with subtle elegance.

Its versatility comes to life through two sets of straps, allowing the wearer to change its appearance freely and easily. Its leather strap is adjustable, too, and the D chain jewel strap is removable, allowing the bag to be styled in a multitude of ways. The discreet zip closure also adds functionality without compromising on elegance. 

The Pin Twist is available in six colors — from neutral shades to summery bold accents — the bag brings ease, charm, and versatility into every hour of the day. 

Le Pin

The Pin is one of Delvaux’s most emblematic styles, alongside the Brilliant and the Tempête. Introduced in 1972, the Pin stands out with its lightness, suppleness, and poetic simplicity. Its silhouette is drawn with two lines and a gentle curve at the base: a smile traced in leather. 

A gesture that feels spontaneous yet reveals deep mastery, echoing the spirit of Matisse, where a single line can capture a world of emotion. The Pin celebrates the beauty of simplicity and the joy of expression. 

Born of craftsmanship and poetic instinct, the Pin is quiet. It flows — brightening your steps, softening the everyday, and leaving in its wake the easy charm of a smile. 

Delvaux is the oldest fine leather goods house in the world, founded in Brussels in 1829. Delvaux has also been the official purveyor to the Royal Court of Belgium since 1883. 

The brand is the pioneer and inventor of the modern handbag, having filed the first-ever leather handbag patent in the world for le Princesse in 1908. 

Its rich archive of creations includes The Brilliant (1958), The Tempête (1967), The Pin (1972), The Cool Box (2018), and The Lingot (2022). 

Steeped in emblematic addresses around the world, from Paris to London, New York, Milan, Tokyo, Seoul, or Beijing, all 60 Delvaux boutiques are different.

RIMOWA, the iconic German luggage brand, is back with the fifth chapter of its "Never Still" Campaign, celebrating not only the essence of travel but also the stories we carry with us along the way. 

RIMOWA is embracing the pre-loved movement, offering re-crafted luggage with a history of its own, which was sold out in mere minutes. This campaign is a continuation of that, featuring three of the world’s most dynamic stars. 

This campaign stars Mandopop legend Jay Chou, F1 champion Lewis Hamilton, and K-pop icon Rosé, and their scuffed suitcases that are decorated with cute custom stickers.

The "Never Still" campaign explores how their journeys have not only shaped their careers but also deepened their understanding of the world and themselves. It includes digital and print photography by Johnny Dufort and short films directed by Daniel Wolfe and Elliott Power, which capture the unique personality of the three stars. 

From Lewis Hamilton’s playful Roscoe (his bulldog) sticker, which pays homage to his furry companion, to Rosé’s album tribute stickers on her Classic Cabin, and Jay Chou’s crossed-racket motif on his suitcase, each piece tells a unique story of the purpose of travel, according to the stars.

Talking about her luggage customization, Rosé mentions that she's always traveling and on the hunt for new adventures, and with each exploration, she’s learning new perspectives that have an impact on her and discovering herself. 

For Jay Chou, aside from revealing through his racket sticker that he’s a fan of tennis, he reflects that every journey contributes to helping him understand himself better and see the world with a new, wiser perspective.

Lewis Hamilton says that pursuing new experiences around the world with his recent travels has been instrumental in challenging himself.

A Daring and Delightful Cocktail Trio

MGallery has partnered with Citadelle Gin to create three bold new cocktails designed specifically to match the glassware. Guests can indulge in rich and delightful recipes made with 100% natural ingredients. 

These one-of-a-kind cocktails are: 

• The Crystal Diva: featuring Citadelle Gin Original, this drink has floral and herbal notes, fino sherry, jasmine and lemongrass cordial, and orange blossom. Stirred and poured effortlessly in the Maison Sarah Lavoine Nick & Nora coupe, it is garnished with a white chocolate shard and a touch of jasmine and lemongrass, much like a gimlet cocktail.
• The Timeless Negroni: A contemporary twist to the classic Negroni featuring Citadelle Gin Original, it infuses sandalwood, red vermouth, and Italian bitters infused with pineapple and pandan, oozing something more earthy and rich. It is served in the Maison Sarah Lavoine Old Fashioned tumbler with a 5 cm oval ice cube, and is topped with pineapple and pandan leather.
• The Honey 75: This salty, zesty twist on a French 75 features Citadelle Gin Original, fat-washed with local olive oil, verjus, salted local honey, orange, and cardamom syrup. Topped with Pommery Champagne, this cocktail is served in the Maison Sarah Lavoine Coupe, evoking a local anchorage that grounds its sparkling profile in timeless elegance. 

The three limited-edition cocktails will be launched alongside five brand-new MGallery cocktail creations with a variety of flavors to transport guests around the world. The creations, available in both alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails, will be added to the MGallery cocktail menu and include a refreshing Sage Highball, a citrusy Spring Sour, a modern and fruity Guava Adonis, a silky lemon Bee’s Heat, and a tropical Paolo Verde. 

The Citadelle Gin cocktails will be available to sample and will be served in their perfectly paired Maison Sarah Lavoine cocktail glass in MGallery bars around the world from May 13 until Aug. 31, 2025. 

The limited-edition Maison Sarah Lavoine glassware collection is also exclusively available for purchase at MGallery Boutique.

In watchmaking, some timepieces don’t just tell time, they define it. Enter the highly anticipated Rolex Oyster Perpetual Land-Dweller, a watch that merges tradition with cutting-edge innovation. 

Rolex’s latest creation is a favorite of tennis champion Roger Federer, who leaked a photo of himself sporting the watch while skiing in the Alps on Instagram.   

With a sleek Oyster case available in 36mm and 40mm, the Land-Dweller is as versatile as it is striking. 

The first is a Land-Dweller 40 (40 mm) watch in white Rolesor, blending Oystersteel and crisp white gold. It boasts a fluted bezel and a striking white dial with a honeycomb pattern.

The second, the Land-Dweller 36 (36 mm), comes in 18 ct Everose gold, with a dial identical to its predecessors, adorned with ten baguette-cut diamond hour markers and a bezel set with 44 trapeze-cut diamonds. 

Coming in third is the ultra-luxurious 950 platinum edition, the Land-Dweller 40, featuring a fluted bezel and an ice-blue dial, and decorated with a honeycomb motif. Each version of the Land-Dweller is a statement in its own right. 

Its reimagined Flat Jubilee bracelet seamlessly integrates with the case, creating a fluid, sculptural silhouette enhanced by polished chamfers that catch the light. The dial, adorned with a honeycomb motif, adds depth and elegance, while the choice of fluted or diamond-set bezels ensures a bold yet refined presence.

Beneath the surface, the Land-Dweller is powered by a heartbeat of caliber 7135, a high-frequency 5Hz movement that is thinner than the majority of Rolexes, including the revolutionary Dynapulse escapement. 

This innovative mechanism enhances energy efficiency, ensuring top-tier precision and an impressive 66-hour power reserve.

A transparent sapphire case back reveals the beauty of Rolex’s meticulous craftsmanship — a first for a watch of this kind.
