Kuala Lumpur socialite celebrates with a spectacular themed party
MANILA born Puan Sri Sylvia Marican, wife of tycoon Tan Sri Othman Marican, threw a lavish birthday bash for 100 guests at swanky G Tower.
Before dinner, guests congregated in Mumm Champagne Room to mingle, marvel and adidas philippines office address murmur over Sylvia TMs RM15,000 Jovian Mandagie mermaid gown with metallic scales hand sewn onto her bustier.
A few (female) friends insisted on pressing and poking her waist to check if a whalebone corset had been surreptitiously inserted to attain such an enviable silhouette. Alas, adidas philippines sale it was genuine flesh underneath but then her 25,000 sq ft mansion has a state of the art gym!
The theme was A Touch of Gold TM and most women adhered to the dress code and even the men added gold accents in their attire.
Sylvia TMs birthday cakes included shoes and a gold bag shaped as a Birkin, which everyone assumed she received from her indulgent husband. But she has an even rarer bag ” a limited edition RM69,000 Christian Dior mink bag and the only one allotted for South East Asia! Plus of course a fistful of diamond bling!
The highlight was a private show by famous Filipina singer and actress Rachel Alejandro, whose sensational singing got everyone dancing.
While not a familiar name among Malaysians, Alejandro is a household name in the adidas philippines store as she was a child star and has been performing on stage since 12 years old.
My theatre experience started at eight years old in Sound of Music when I played one of Von Trapp children, said the charming Alejandro. Then Peter Pan at 15, Noli Me Tangere at 18 and I have not stopped since!
She was only 12 when she was selected to host the popular TV series That TMs Entertainment. Her fame was sealed!
Her Babalik Balikan single went platinum in 1992, the first of several.
I am also an actress and my last movie was Mumbaki with Raymart Santiago but I consider myself more a singer, she said. I played Mimi in Rent and Kate Monster in Avenue Q both in the adidas philippines sale and Singapore. I am so delighted to entertain Malaysians as well as fellow Filipinos.
Sylvia TMs Filipino guests residing in Kuala Lumpur were certainly left speechless when Alejandro sang Happy Birthday.
There were five candles on her cake but since everyone avowed Sylvia did not look a day older than 40, and she did not protest, we must assume that is her age.
