The VIP Gifting Lounge At This Year’s DIFF Includes A Trip To The Maldives

Take a look at the incredible gifts and experiences the celebs will get at this year’s festival

The Dubai International Film Festival is known for being one of the year’s most glamorous annual events, so it’s perfectly fitting that the Le Clos VIP gifting lounge is packed with some of the most coveted fashion, beauty and travel must-haves any celeb would covet.

Now in its sixth year, the Le Clos VIP Lounge will house a wide selection of gifts, treatments and experiences for a select group of celebs, making sure their experience at DIFF is one to remember.

One of the most coveted of this year’s experiences is a trip to one of the world’s most luxurious retreats in the Maldives, Amilla Fushi, Huvafen Fushi and Finolu – select celebrities will be taken away on a once-in-a-lifetime vacation, which ranges from $1,500 (Dhs5,509) per night and up.

Keeping the A-list on Bazaar’s best dressed radar, Issa (who has just launched at House of Fraser) will be showcasing their latest collection as well INTISARS, a luxe jewellery brand ranging from Dhs17,700 to Dhs46,600, founded by Sheikha Intisar AlSabah, princess of the royal family of Kuwait.

If that wasn’t enough to satisfy your sartorial cravings, the lounge is also offering custom shoe and gown options for the red carpet courtesy of IO Shoes and United Designers respectively. 

There will also be gifts, experiences and treatments from some of the beauty world’s most high-caliber offerings. Arcadia, the perfume label founded by Amna Al Habtoor, will be gifting a selection of items to guests as will Prismologie skincare, the Shower Tower Soap Company, while The Art of Shaving and Sugar Beauty Lounge are offering a selection of grooming treatments to ensure VIPs are red carpet-ready at all times. 

DIFF, you’ve truly outdone yourself.
