British Super model "Twiggy" names Seabourn Sojourn |
||||||||||||||||
London weather cooperated with perfect
weather for the elegant,
black-tie naming ceremony of the 32,000-ton
Seabourn Sojourn by 60's icon Twiggy
the new ships godmother.
Moored just across the river from Canary Wharf on the river Thames, a well chosen venue to launch the latest Seabourn cruise ship.
Lavish flower arrangements adorned the deck and floated in the water, and
buckets of dry ice tipped into the Jacuzzis gave the whole setting an ethereal
look as the resulting cloud billowed over the assembled guests, among them
Carnival Corporation chairman Micky Arison.
Image by Steve Dunlop - The Yachts of Seabourn introduce Twiggy, comparing her to the new ship as both possess "elegance, style, timeless beauty and an iconic presence." Twiggy, every inch the supermodel in a shimmery cerise dress by British designer Catherine Walker, quickly embraced the mood by greeting the crowd with the words: "Welcome to my yacht!" With no further ado, she pressed a button, and the bottle of Champagne zoomed down a zip line, across the pool, and smashed against the ship's superstructure. After sunset, guests gathered around the
pool as a string quartet blasted out rousing classical tunes. Spectacular
fireworks, set off from a barge in the Thames, lit the sky over Greenwich. |
