Il Network di The Unique Show a Monte Carlo
La sesta edizione dell'evento monegasco si è appena conclusa. I cinquantadue brand internazionali sono stati apprezzati da un nutrito pubblico di cultori e collezionisti
It is time to weigh up the sixth edition of Luxury Monte-Carlo | The Unique Show, which ended last weekend after 4 days of business and valuable social and networking moments. Dalila Daffara, the event’s founder, sums up this umpteenth successful experience as follows: «Since I started The Unique Show in 2023, I have only ever had one wish: to create a stage where excellence, talent and culture could meet. This edition, has once again seen my dream come true.The first act, celebrated by the Charity Night Gala, was our core moment. Together with Les Enfants de Frankie, we supported the most vulnerable children, remembering that beauty has value only when shared. Pure emotion also came forth from the ISM Voices choir and Délia Grâce Noble's operaticperformance, which embellished the evening with an unforgettable touch. The second act, however, looked to the future with The Unique Awards ceremony, which honored the winners selected by a jury of international caliber. At the same time, thanks to collaboration with IED Rome, The Place of Wonders Foundation and master goldsmith Giò Carbone fromthe LAO goldsmith school, our venue was transformed into a living and poetic laboratory, where the creative gesture demonstrated its changing authenticity. Lastly, the third act: the Marina Rinaldi fashion show. A tribute to inclusive elegance, where fashion and high jewelry communicate in harmony, like a perfectly tuned refrain.»
