Tatler hosts an Easter Market with The Upper House
Few events could have kicked off springtime more elegantly than the Easter market hosted by Tatler and The Upper House on March 28. The all-day affair brought together the very best of food, fitness, fashion and fine jewellery with a dose of sunshine-soaked positivity.
Taking over the hotel’s lawn and Sky Lounge, familiar faces and their families hopped between stalls, browsing finery from the likes of clothing brand Movers & Cashmere, handbag maker Esemblé, artisanal jeweller Dilys’, and the stars of the show, Lex & Beans, which showcased its adorable backpacks for dogs on rescue pups and models-for-the-day Cashew and Beans. Mainstays of the Tatler social circle Laura Cheung and Ingrid Chen arrived with their children in tow, while Edwin Pun took time away from his birthday celebration to hang out with old friends.
An outdoor food emporium delighted palates with an extensive menu by the Maka Hiki Lounge by Honi Honi, and The Upper House’s own barbecue station. Those with a sweet tooth had their Easter chocolate cravings sated by Baking Maniac’s Ankrish and Renuka Gidwani, the mother-son duo famed for their cakes and brownies. “We’re so excited to be here,” said Ankrish. “We get to showcase our hard work to a huge audience in the middle of a pandemic with this incredible Easter party. During the pandemic, we’ve had so many online orders and we’re happy to be able to showcase our range here.”
For the first time, Tatler House, Tatler’s lifestyle venue at The Upper
House, was opened to the public and played host to two classes: a calligraphy workshop led by master Kaye Shu, and a hands-on session by florist Bydeau, which taught participants how to perfect a teacup floral arrangement. Painting eggs and stuffing yourself silly with treats are practically obligatory when celebrating Easter—and the market proved it’s not only children who can have all the fun.
