Glee at the Kee


Can I tell you...about the Kee Club. I was back in Hong Kong this past April for my usual pre-collection trip. What you have to understand is that a trip to Hong Kong is not complete without a night at the Kee. It's a private club for members only. I'm sort of an honorary member because all my friends are and this club is one of their favorites.
The energetic and forever jubilant manager Marina Bullivant makes going here so welcoming and easy, like going to her apartment for drinks. Champagne is on a constant refill. Thank God they don't give me hangovers. My friend David Jacob ( a CEO by day ), DJ's here every other weekend as his hobby and Marina is happy to indulge him. Not because he's cute but because he's a f___ing really good DJ! In fact he's so good that the famous Pacha club in Ibiza has asked him to spin 2 summers in a row. Trust me, once he starts spinning that dance floor gets so jam packed it's claustrophobic! I'm amazed that floor hasn't collapsed with all the bumping, jumping and grinding going on.
Another reason why I love going to the Kee is because I see my share of 'Rafe bags' on the prettiest girls. Who wouldn't love that?! That's the ultimate compliment to any designer. Naturally I brought my camera to document these lovely ladies carrying my product. It helps that they're my girlfriends of course. That's what friends are for, right?
The next evening I decided to take it easy and grabbed a bite with Tatler fashion editor Blue Carreon and his partner Bruce. We met at Gaia, a lovely Italian restaurant in Sheung Wan. PR Diva Shirley Hiranand met us later for more drinks and we ended up closing the place. Blame it on the champagne refills. The party never ends...in Hong Kong.
