You can finally afford a Ferrari...well, sort of
Entry-level option rolls out.
Abu Dhabi - Emirates Voice
Let's face it - many of us dream of owning a supercar?:? a Lamborghini, a Porsche, a Ferrari. These cars have fuelled many people's dreams, and are seen as the epitome of luxury.
But there's one small problem. People who own such cars are immensely rich, and the poor lot is left to content with unsightly sedans and hatchbacks. Our closest encounter with a supercar is when it passes by, and we stare at it!
But that is about to change. Why? Because Ferrari just rolled out a supercar that anyone can afford... well, kind of.
According to Bloomberg Pursuits, Ferrari introduced the Portofino supercar at a low, low price of $234,000 (Dh859,000). It is also touted as an 'entry-level' car. So, if you want to get started with the high life that comes attached with cars like these, this is where you start.
CEO Sergio Marchionne said that the hardtop convertible will be brought to life with a 600 horsepower V8 which can go from 0-100 in as little as 3.5 seconds. Ferrari is also expecting the 'budget' supercar to boost sales to 9,000 cars by 2019.

to 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations. It includes the dress worn by supermodel Naomi Campbell, his longtime friend and muse, when she led
