I would like to write
this month’s column in French to say ‘J'ai passé la soirée avec
certains lapins luxuriants du Playboy variété...’ because the slick team at Midnight Communication invited a guests to the
new rooms at Rendevous Casino at our Marina to be introduced to legendary and
iconic hosts, Playboy Bunnies from the London club. I had never seen a live,
life-sized Playboy Bunny...save for a retired one who was once the girlfriend
of my art mentor, the late American architect and artist Ralf Broughton. She
never showed up in the trademark ears, tail and swimming-style costume. I
arrived with glee to be charmed by some of the current crop of London’s lovely Bunnies.
They made us welcome in the new Big Red Lounge and Rendevous’ Big Red Challenge
gaming zone. All the cocktails were red, potent and never-ending and with waiting
staff bearing trays of gorgeous nibbles it was like one of my own packed launch
parties back in the day! Recent years have seen generous entertaining become
rare and on that evening it made a comeback!
I attended the first Secret Geisha Party at The Jive Monkey. Guests
dressed up and turned out for a drink and a dance and most of the ladies were
in some form of Geisha dress, none more regal than Miss. Nixon. Known as a
leading Marilyn Monroe tribute act, Miss Nixon has secretly been studying the
art and history of the Geisha. She is now steeped in the culture and its famous
Tea Ceremony and has booked to perform it for visiting Japanese industrialists!
