Georgina Wilson-Burnand is back with the best version of herself yet
Hi,
The multi-hyphenate and stunningly gorgeous Georgina Wilson-Burnand, one of the OG “It Girls”, graces the cover of Tatler magazine this month. In the interview, she talks about her recent fitness journey, her family's move to Shanghai, and how she manages everything on her plate.
The May Design Issue also features a tour of the renovated Laperal Mansion, known as the Arlegui Guest House. This remarkable project, led by First Lady Liza Marcos, is a testament to Filipino creativity. Several architects and interior designers collaborated to create a Filipino-inspired design marvel ready to become home to foreign dignitaries visiting the Philippines.
In addition, the magazine features interviews with the country's best architects, interior designers, and emerging fashion designers. There is also a conversation with the iconic Mr. Pure Energy, Gary Valenciano, following his "last" concert. Be sure not to miss out on all this and more in the May Design Issue of Tatler magazine.

The limited-edition Tag Heuer watch celebrating GMT Magazine’s 24th anniversary—and how you can own one
Tag Heuer Carrera Twin-Time Automatic GMT, a special edition watch celebrating Tatler GMT's Swiss partner, GMT magazine's 24th anniversary
In 1955, Heuer (this was before “Tag” was added to its name) created the Twin-Time, becoming one of the first brands to launch a GMT model displaying two time zones simultaneously. Since then, other major watch companies have gone on to develop their own travel timepieces, and the GMT watch has become more commonplace.

Filipino cycling advocate Lester “Buji” Babiera started braving the roads of Metro Manila during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The streets were empty. People stayed inside their homes due to quarantine restrictions. Vehicles rarely left their parking spots. It was the perfect opportunity for enthusiasts like Babiera, spurred on by his friend, photographer Jilson Tiu, to explore the city on two wheels.
