Brilliant minds If diamonds are a girl’s best friend, then De Beers is every woman’s BFF … because a diamond is forever, get it? Anyways, the jeweller says there’s more to choosing the right rock than checking the four Cs (carat, cut, colour and clarity). De Beers Iris is a device designed to show customers what the experts see when measuring the brilliance of a diamond. To see how the Iris works, head to the company’s store in The Landmark (Central, tel: 2118 2321) and inspect the gorgeous Phenomena Glacier earrings (above right; HK$855,000) and three-row bracelet (above left; HK$665,000).

Now in its second year, London label Self-Portrait excels at intensely detailed dresses in cut-out and sheer fabrics, which are both feminine and whimsical, with full pleated skirts and raw lace edges decorating many a hem and cuff. If you are looking to turn heads, there's the Liliana dress (above left; HK$3,580), with transparent lace trims and honeycomb mesh. The feminine Azaelea dress (above right; HK$2,675) would be perfect for a picnic in the sun. Self-Portrait is available at net-a-porter.com.
