MUMBAI, India, April 20th, 2024 – Godrej L'Affaire, a curated experiential luxury lifestyle platform by Godrej Industries Limited and Associate Companies, concluded its sixth edition with a spectacular showcase of 'All Things Goodness'. With more than 1,500 people including several prominent personalities attending Godrej L’Affaire 2024, more than 50 brands came together to create memorable experiences.
Presented by HSBC India, the Godrej L’Affaire’s three-pronged mission of crafting hyper-immersive experiences, building a community of lifestyle enthusiasts, and weaving a robust digital safety net for all the participating brands surpassed expectations, offering attendees a truly unforgettable experience.
From the moment guests stepped through the beautiful arch gate, the essence of 'Goodness of Lifestyle' enveloped them, symbolising a holistic approach to living. The event was meticulously mapped across eight zones, each representing a facet of L'Affaire – Lifestyle, Awareness, Fashion, Flavour, Artistry, Innovation, Rejuvenation, and Environment — and offered a journey of discovery and delight.
Attendees were treated to a virtual walkthrough of the event beforehand, courtesy of a distinctive microsite, providing insights into the goodness factor and a glimpse of what awaited them. The microsite, which went live 4-5 days before the event, served as a prelude to the immersive experience that awaited guests.
The evening’s highlight was an exclusive fashion show by Malaika Arora, showcasing her flagship brand – The Label Life. Marking a smashing debut for the brand's collection on the runway, Malaika showcased Spring Summer 2024 collection centred around iconic Picnic, Party, Home, and Office looks. Attendees were also treated to an electric performance by the band – The Bartender, the brainchild of Mikey McCleary – award-winning songwriter, composer, and producer. Featuring Shalmali Kolghade, Medha Sahi, and Kaprila Keishing, their eclectic mix of music sensibilities set the tone for an evening of entertainment and enlightenment.
